Would I be right in thinking that the EU didn't try to influence us to stay? They have ginormous resources at their disposal. They seem to have remained silent with comments coming from politicians in other member countries.
Just a few of the heid bummers like Juncker wagging their finger and saying "don't do that or else". I'm eating cheese(camembert, applewood smoked and a nice stilton) and biscuits while the talking heads talk their talk and try and explain the erratic behaviour of the british voter.Edited by hidetheelephants on Friday 24th June 01:58

Authoritive person: "If you leave we will punish you."
British Voter: "Fine, see if I care."
As a nation we've never responded well to being beaten with a stick, mainly through a major sense of inbuilt bloody-mindedness. Even if it's not the best option, we'll go for it because taking the better option means siding with the person/people threatening us.

Buy your Pounds today. It's unlikely you'll get such a good rate for a while. Apart from that not much will change, we've always had passport checks at the airports so you won't notice a difference there. News over here is claiming that the Leave side has won.
