    Boxit - with Boris out of the race now. Next up Coxit (when Corbyn gets the boot).

    60 odd million were definitely on a looser. I'm sure pretty much all WW2 veterans feel the same. My grandad refuses to wear his medals and March for the cameras. In his words "it was bloody awful and nothing to be proud of".

    Now that Cameron has had his Chamberlain, Boris lacks the bottle to follow thru on his false claims, who will do the Dunkirk bit and save the Disunited Kingdom from the EU bureaucrats
    DeMyer's Laws - an argument that consists primarily of rambling quotes isn't worth bothering with.

    I wouldn't rate Boris as a PM. Grove is certainly strong enough, however I suspect the Theresa will get the nod

    Its better than Yes Minister.

    Looks like it still has to go to the Commons for a vote. That could be interesting.

    JPMorgan’s Malcolm Barr, who covers UK economics and politics for the bank, thinks the new Prime Minister will go to parliament to ratify Article 50 before notifying the EU since the referendum result is not actually legally binding. This will give MPs the opportunity to reject it.

    The bank says 20 Tory MPs would have to defy the new Prime Minister, whoever that may be, in order for Article 50 to be defeated in the House of Commons, assuming Labour and other opposition parties reject it. Labour MP David Lammy has already called for MPs to reject Article 50 when it comes before the House.

    Not mine, but quite good

    Right. F#ck this. We're ALL up sh#t creek and we need a paddle. Now, not in three months.
    Fellow Remain voters: Enough already. Yes, we're all pissed off but navel gazing ain't gonna help. Not all 17 million Leave voters can possibly be racist northern pensioners without an O level to their name. Maybe they have a point about this quitting the EU thing? Maybe not. Whatever, we are where we are and no amount a whinging is gonna change that. Allegedly we're the intelligent ones, so get your thinking caps on.

    Leave voters. Well done. Good game. We hear you. Now you need to get stuck in to the aftermath and not just piss off back to Wetherspoons. (Just banter, twats!). And the first person to say they "want their country back" gets deported to fucking Gibraltar. OK?
    Politicians.

    David. F#ck off. Shut the door behind you. Now. George. You may be a twat but you're our twat. Plus you know the passwords for our Junior Savers account. Get your calculator. Drop the face-like-a-slapped-ass routine. You're on.

    Boris. Sorry mate. That photo of you abseiling by your scrotum over the London Olympics while waving a Union Jack can't ever be un-taken. Plus, you'll never be able to appear on Question Time again without some sturdy Glaswegian nurse asking where the F#ck her 350 million quid is. Not only will she have a very good point, she'll be wearing a T shirt that shows you gurning in front of that fucking bus! No captains hat for you I'm afraid.

    Theresa. You're in charge love. Get the biggest shoulder pads you've got. We need Ming The Merciless in drag and you'll scare the sh#t out of 'em.
    Nicola. Yep. Fair cop. You probably could get us on a technicality, as could London. But we fucking love shortbread. And oil. And to be honest you're probably the best politician we've got, so we need you on side. Sort your lot out and we promise never to mention that Jimmy Krankie thing again (although it is pretty uncanny) and we'll make you a Dame once we're sorted. Bring Ruth Davidson. She kicks ass.

    Opposition party. We'll need one. Someone take Jeremy and John back to the British Legion Club where you found them. Take Nigel as well. Give back their sandals, buy them a pint, then go to Heathrow and collect David Milliband. F#ck it. Lets gets Ed Balls as well. He keeps George on his toes. I think he works on the lottery kiosk at Morrisons now?

    Oh. And Mark Carney. Give him a knighthood and tell him to keep that sh#t coming. We definitely need more of that good sh#t!
    Everyone set? Right. Hold the Easyjet. We're going to Brussels and this ain't no hen party.

    That is a very good question? - "Who" will they really represent is a large part of that question too?

    Unfortunately the answer will become clear far too late if it is "not" the British people! - Thank goodness all politicians are honourable statesmen at heart!

    Borris was behind the whole campaign and now he's ducking for cover. I find the whole thing embarrassing. It's a win for Sun readers and white van man who still thinks England has an Empire and views Europe as "that funny place where people eat fish and smelly cheese".

    Some strange and irrelevant words there. How about some actual reasons to stay and a demonstration as to how the EU could ever actually succeed?

    48.1% of the dumbed down, permanently stoned, paranoid, gullible, OR just feel that getting pissed & fucked in Greece or Spain are the most important issues for them and their country; so they voted to stay.

    I started this thread asking for reasons to vote to stay. I didn't get any, just innane ramble and prophecy. I can think of some good reasons myself, but they didn't seem strong enough. I was hoping some on here might have been able to offer some better arguments to persuade me.

    What makes me laugh is that immigration was low down on the list of my issues to consider. I always believed that if it became a big enough problem, the rules could be changed appropriately. But look how the idiot NZ media has made that the primary focus and somehow realated it to NZ immigration, which it is not even remotely similar to. Most immigrants in to NZ have to qualify to get here and inject large amounts of foreign cash in to the economy. The country wants and needs them. The vast majority of immigrants in to the UK are paracites and suck out of the economy, for their personal gain.

    In my view, the people of NZ in to the UK and the vote would have been 70/30 to leave.

    What i find interesting is that Nigal Farage was/is a Member of European parliament stood up and said along the lines of " you lot have never done a days work...blah ...blah"
    However happy to take the salary for years and years and by the look of it hate the place.
    Then reading todays English papers sounds like Johnson and Gove 'planned' to push Brexit so they could get rid of Cameron and take over.


    The whole thing has got Europeans thinking about the mechanics of the EU and do they really need a lot of it, good to see some dialog on it.

    Will be while if ever before the Art 50 button is pressed me thinks.


    Brexit has become very addictive, much better than a TV series.

    And ironically I'd guess the freedom of movement might be something that remains

    I don't think that would be an election winner

    Becoming a 'Norway' would make them worse off than before, not better

    They need to focus on non-EU agreements and force the EU beg the the UK to continue to do business with them.

    Hire Donald Trump, he'll do the deals for them

    Freedom of movement is exactly that. You can't pick and choose which EU countries are allowed to enter the UK. The arrogance and narrow mindedness of the majority of the British general population is quite staggering. You don't read the Sun by any chance do you?
