If you think the pound dropping just 9% vs. the USD rather than 10% then WOOHOO!! You're right.
But it still feels like a bad bad bad day!

It was always going to be painful, but it's not been too painful and if it gives those unelected, self-serving twunts in the EU a wake-up call, then so be it. Had they been open to real reform and been a little less self-serving, then this would not have happened. Folks in the UK are sick of the wealth divide - and I say that from a very favourable position myself.
We will come out of this stronger in the long term.

No pain, no gain. It was expected, it happened, it's part of the cancer cure and some people have to take a little bit of a dunt for the greater good.

I strongly feel this vote will widen the wealth divide sadly.It was always going to be painful, but it's not been too painful and if it gives those unelected, self-serving twunts in the EU a wake-up call, then so be it.

I truly hope you are right but it's going to be a damn tough road to get there.

But, if we look at it as a new begining, then perhaps it can be made positive and instill some national pride back into our laminated society.

If the results thread is anything to go by the whole referendum has just created a massive divide throughout the country.But, if we look at it as a new begining, then perhaps it can be made positive and instill some national pride back into our laminated society.
I certainly didn't expect to be living in a country where someone would should "traitor" at me for having a remain poster up outside my house.

That is IMO a real concern. Conservatives in turmoil, labour in turmoil, London "in", Midlands and North "out", Johnson and Farage at the controls - where is any sort of consensus going to come from?It matters because one thing is certain - unless UK looks stable, foreign investment here will be yesterday's news.
