Politics (and other political stuff)
I could have voted but didn't as I honestly didn't have a clue as to which side to vote for. Basically I am happy that the campaigning and everything is now over, now we just have to wait and see what the outcome is...

(23 Jun 2016, 9:32 pm)Jimmi I honestly didn't know where to stand on this one and I seem to struggle in regards to what to vote for in anything political as I simply haven't a clue as I don't feel I have enough knowledge on the matter. I'd probably just stand there pondering the decision all day not knowing what to go for and just make a panic choice there and then, I would like to be more educated on political matters but... I don't know, just can't seem to stay intrested long enough to listen to anything with intrest.

nd look what the Sunderland result has done to Sterling.
Apparently wiped more off the value of sterling than the total of every property in the whole of Sunderland.

Even though I voted to leave, I never saw that result coming, neither did Big Nige it seems...I saw somewhere that he actually conceded before the count even started...
Interesting times ahead...What I want to know now...
1. Where does this leave David Cameron and the government in general? A few political pundits said Cameron would end up walking if he was defeated in this
2. What does it mean for the United Kingdom? The fish wife in charge North of the Border said Brexit could stir enough of a voice for another referendum, Northern Ireland also voted to Remain, could this be the start of Irish Re-Unification or some kind of Union with Scotland away from the UK

I didn't see it come either, was expecting us to remain.
Its going to be an interesting year ahead, the markets etc may take a while to come back up - if they do.
Its a masive step and i don't know why people are getting their knickers in a twist over it.
Loads wanted a vote and it happened.
Talks of France and Germany wanting a referendom now.. end of the EU?
With Cameron going and the Tories returning to the old days of internal fighting, we can now build for the future and elect a party who are free from the shackles of the EU.
Is it ironic that the pound is still worth more than the Euro, despite its huge fall?
Or does it show the Euro to be a flawed currency, that has negatively impacted on the mmajority (apart from holiday makers) and helped contribute towards the astronomical trade deficit we see?

(24 Jun 2016, 11:23 am)BusLoverMum I respect you for that. It's impossible for ordinary people to make a properly weighed up decision based on all the possible scenarios, based on the soundbites we were fed.It's picking out a better evil, but this isn't how democracy is even meant to be, it's absurd. I could go on but I've not stopped talking t o people since 4 am, so I'll get back to my Siesta
