Lots of angry people today.
Discussion
No way did I want to start yet another Brexit thread, so I will slip this in here
Heard so many awkward questions answered with so much flimflam, but the best unadulterated quote came from the Boss of Wetherspoons. When asked about his opinion regarding the Political noise from the 'remain' camp. His reply was a National television gem, 'well it's all politicians isn't it, talking a load of bks''
I do so admire captains of industry, or more correctly self made businessmen, speak out in plain English.

You have my attention, just what exactly is it that you are planning to reverse the democratic vote?
I think the outcome of brexit negotiations - if handled professionally - will make that almost inevitable, and a vehicle for confirming what is best for the country will be developed in a way that is not seen to ignore the recent vote. That is unless the tories put a mentalist lightweight like Leadsom in as PM. Then anything could happen.
But I suspect they won't.
May is seen as the considered safe pair of hands needed to calm everyone down - a symbol of reason, and perhaps liberty at a stretch.

What a horrible divisive sign, by not having it in every other language. Did they not think about how exclusionist and isolating it could be to others who don't read english. Horrible when will people start thinking of others.

This is a good sign.
I wonder how we will end up if we just become a free port.

Though his money comes from blokes that spend all afternoon in the pub, so perhaps he's not a typical businessman.Heard so many awkward questions answered with so much flimflam, but the best unadulterated quote came from the Boss of Wetherspoons.

It's definitely dying away though. The reality that they have lost and we are leaving the EU is sinking in.
Brexit will be the new austerity or maybe even the new Thatcher for years, but it is a reality.
I really don't get why people are still convinced we're not going to leave? Brexit will be the new austerity or maybe even the new Thatcher for years, but it is a reality.
Are they not listening to every single leadership candidate?
It's why we're in the mess. No political party thought it was a good idea, none expected it to happen and none have any plans for it happening. Apart from maybe Nigel Farage, but the electorate forgot he doesn't have a political mandate in parliament.
If this is 'taking back control', I'm not sure I want it.
In case you haven't noticed, the stock market is actually higher than it was before you lost. The FTSE100 is stronger, and Britain's business are now worth more.
The Pound has dropped, so our exports are now cheaper. Thank God that we didn't get dragged into the Euro.
British car exports to Germany will stay at the same price, and the prices of German car imports will go up by 20%.
Mind you, the British unions will probably screw it up by refusing to go to work (again).

I think we will see the impact spread over months or years rather than days.
Maybe you will see business and profits increase over that time period if you stop wishing for the end of the world.smifffymoto said:

Maybe you will see business and profits increase over that time period if you stop wishing for the end of the world.This is starting to affect people right now, without them doing any wishing one way or the other.
My main business is directly associated with new car sales via dealerships, and already people have been cancelling new car orders because of what they fear will happen economically in the very near future, so are hanging on to their existing car 'for a while longer'
My brothers business relies on building, construction and planning. He has had people put building projects on hold directly citing the referendum result.
My cousin and his girlfriend have just pulled out of the purchase of their first house, as he works in a big research centre in Cardiff which is directly funded by the EU, and they have all been told that it is highly likely the money will instantly dry up once we leave, so he's probably going to be out of a job.
Those are just me and my immediate family. There will be thousands more just like us who are starting to feel it already.

Dammit, you are right! All I need to do to stop the construction industry from imploding is to stop wishing for the end of the world!I'm going to email my Directors first thing tomorrow, cheers!

If you do not have faith, ask why more want to come to this country than are leaving - an option available to everyone.

Man up and have faith, you will survive and even thrive. Don't be so negative.

Have faith? We've had three large projects cancelled last week already. I don't rely on faith - faith doesn't pay the mortgage.If you do not have faith, ask why more want to come to this country than are leaving - an option available to everyone.
You are correct though I will survive one way or the other as unlike millions of leave voters I at least have the education and skills - you could say I am one of those experts we are all fed up with now - to be able to go work abroad if needs. So I will be fine, one way or the other. Those poor sods in the North East or Wales?
