I’m surprised how high the remain vote is, given the PH demographic.
I would be interested to know what the PH demographic is? Middle class, right wing? Am I close? 
People then incorrectly linked lower education levels and what social group people are in to being thick and racist
The only good thing that will come of a Corbyn government is that the EU will never want the UK back once it has been ruined.
The EU has enough lame ducks as it is (some of them maimed through membership); they won’t want another.
Hopefully, the plans already being made to deal with the economic disaster of Corbynism, should he be elected, will limit the damage to just enough to show the likes of Mx5nut, and other s
t for brains wasters, how bad it could be.

Any "Project Fear' the Remain campaign carried out has got nothing on the anti Corbyn propoganda 
No he won't be the best PM we've ever had, but the sky won't fall and we'll get to vote for somebody else after 5 years.
The damage of Brexit will be much longer lasting than a leftie PM for a few years.
I'm guessing that you don't understand the Corbyn / Mcdonnell proposals?No he won't be the best PM we've ever had, but the sky won't fall and we'll get to vote for somebody else after 5 years.

We can all get behind him and hope that his policies won’t be too disastrous.
Sadly, that won’t help. Anyone with any life experience at all knows he will be an unmitigated economic disaster.
But we won’t campaign to get the vote overturned or rerun, we’ll just accept the will of the people and wait until the next opportunity to get someone sensibly in power.

Err... I didn't refer to an Elite in my post and I put a response, in the context of my post, in the next sentence.
"Anyone who supports Remain"
It is very noticeable that Remain are very quick to declare themselves to be superior, sometimes to the extent that only they should be allowed a say. Apparently old people shouldn't vote as they won't live with the results. Apparently anyone younger is just stupid or racist or a Little Englander. You would expect anyone who was actually that clever to realise very quickly that second referendums have almost become a tradition and that perhaps with a bit of negotiation and compromise they could have got one and won it. But instead we got insults, sulks, tears, tantrums and more project fear.
It sounds like you are a victim of your own project fear."Anyone who supports Remain"

Sticks and stones.......
There was no plan because you can’t really plan for something that hasn’t been done before and involves long complex negotiations.
Even if you wanted to attempt to make plans before the vote, the country doesn’t have the resources to plan for all eventuallies before the decision has been made. Plus the people running everything didn’t think it would happen.

Indeed. immigration/emigration isn't stopping after Brexit, its just not going to be a right anymore. If you have skills then its quite likely you will be as much in demand in the EU as the USA.
The use of the words "quite likely" notedIt gives that feeling of uncertainty that Brexit brings us.
Terminator X said:
Why do you think that the EU wouldn't want skilled UK people to go there to work? What do you think happened before the EU formed for example? Did we simply sit in the UK never able to leave 
TX.
Because we don't know what sort of arrangement we will have.TX.
Going back to my original post where the words "quite likely" were used.
Sidick ignored my post and asked a question = JAQing off.

not all the details - I was being a bit flippant (I voted remain) - but I assumed Brexit would make it harder............if not - then I can fk off if Corbyn gets in and it's all good!
Most Brits fk off if Corbyn gets in and it's all good!k off out of the EU when they emigrate, usual places they go are Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa and USA.mx5nut said:
Why would somebody in the "lower spectrum" of the labour market be celebrating having less rights than they were born with?
Because they see the trade off a better balance for them and the country.You cant be so thick as to not still understand the drivers behind the Brexit vote 19 months after the event? You are just a troll.
It will require a period of change and adjustment for many no doubt but I still think we will be better off outside the current EU rules which are no longer fit for purpose. If they had chosen to reform it so it was fair to wealthier members then I would have voted to stay in but they haven’t.
It is crap but not a disaster which should be celebrated, especially as we already knew how crap it was being bound by EU rules.

You're right they will (EU rules), and come Jan 2021 any we don't want to follow we can bin just like we binned the EU.
Indeed, we are starting from the position of alignment which should make things easier to negotiate, especially where there’s mutual benefit for us remaining associate members of some agencies - e.g aviation & medicine.

If Maggie had been around she would not have even contemplated putting something as complex as EU membership to a public vote. And she would have called anyone proposing it an utter loon, playing fast and loose with the nations fortunes.
Really? She would have taken the UK out of the EU without even asking if she was in power still at this time. She hated the maastricht treaty and the further integration of the EU.
