Current Affairs EU In or Out

Knives out for Corbyn, it seems. Blairites going round and round saying that the country voting in line with Corbyn's personal views proves that he is out of touch.

Can we kick him out because he's not a skilled worker!

hahahahahahahahahahah

Interesting voting statistics by age demographic.

18-24 75% remain
25-49 56% remain
50-64 44% remain
65+ 39% remain

So basically, the generations that lived through the 80s and 90s wanted to inflict it on their children and grandchildren
Freud would have a field day

Just saw someone saying "how dare youngsters criticise the elderly and how they voted. They fought a war for you to even have the right to vote"

and another (British person) saying "now Trump just needs to win the US election so we can stand shoulder to shoulder as free nations once more"

My head is literally going to explode from an overloading of idiocy.

i'd prefer a different leader to corbyn, but dont think the ref result is his fault, not even sure he could have much influence on it tbh

My social media is full of southerners (mainly Londoners) so heads are falling off and I've even seen a four year old "saying to Mummy 'we've left Europe' with sadness in her voice". If it was twitter rather than Facebook I'd have flagged it for @bluejock

What a surprise.

Farage calls it Independence Day. I prefer to call it Day Zero.

Of course. The real short term worry on the horizon is Deutsche Bank - if that goes belly up then it doesn't matter what Leave / Remain result was, it's going to be carnage

They're also completely ignoring their own responsibility for losing the likes of the north-east etc. by failing to invest enough to mitigate the effects of deindustrialisation.

Tell you what though @The Esk ignoring all the other implications of last night's vote, that's one unbelievable trade you managed last night if you managed to close before Sunderland

Thanks, I closed at 1.4988..... phewwww

It is irksome as a young person who voted to remain, that such a long term decision has been influenced more by those with less time to actually live through the effects.

You can't really say "no votes for OAPs" though. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, I just hope said opinions were as informed as possible and not the product of appallingly dishonest propaganda machines.

One upside, at least Ireland might be a nation once again, a nation once again.

Do I put this to the tune of Yellow Submarine?
