We have a much better bellweather in SFD, always the wrong horse.

Ouch.

Ah well.

Time to get on with life and see what happens.

I hope that it all turns out ok.

Very surprised and disappointed by the result. I hope Cameron steps down so that Boris and Gove can take responsibility for overseeing the exit.

Nah... It only counts if it's me.

If he counted everyone, he'd be in the hundreds!

Lets hope Johnny Mercer fall on his sword and resigns.

Cameron & Osborne surely have to go now. They can't be trusted to negotiate the best exit strategy for Britain. Not Boris either please.
Lots of rather less than magnanimous politicians on the TV.

Short term pain for long term gain, possibly.

Absolutely no doubt though that with this slim a margin, if the Government had been seen to take a harder line on immigration in recent years, it would have been a comfortable Remain win.

Thankfully, in this election every vote counted Hugh, no matter what your brethren voted for.

That's my view, I knew by voting out, because of my circumstances, I would be taking quite a large financial hit in the short to medium term. The chaos in the markets were entirely predictable, it's how the feckers make their millions. I think things will stabilize pretty quickly. Then it will be up to the British people to bring all their best instincts to the table.

We won't see such a mass exercise in democracy again in our lifetime. The will of the people is to be respected and I know emotions are running high right now, but it disappoints me to see the vitriol being heaped on quite ordinary British people, one man, one vote is the absolute core of a free and fair society.

Think Cornwall voted 57% leave/ 43% remain which I found surprising given the money the EU has delivered in grants, and is due to pay another £500m by 2020.

Exactly the same here Charlie. It'll be well worth it in the long term to exit an organisation that Britain was conned into joining by people like Heath and Wilson and has since continued to operate by stealth. If the British people had known in 1972 or 1975 what was coming,there is no possible way that the "common market" would have been entertained, so real democracy has been vindicated by this result and even more so in view of the bullying, lies and scaremongering that was forthcoming from the Remain campaign-makes me feel quite proud that a majority of the British people ignored it.

Couldn't agree more. I'd like to see all elections held in the same manner so everybody's vote counts, people do care enough to engage in politics if they believe that they truly have a voice.

Lol, imagine the result if the PM had been honest with his campaign and hadn't told people that the economy would be flat on his arse, house prices would fall, taxes would go up, pensions would be raided, security would suffer! Have I left anybody out?
One thing this shows is how disenfranchised over half the population is with government in general, should have held the ref. on the solstice then it would be a real new dawn.

So is over half the population of this country racist? You really are fecked up if you believe that, a victory for democracy against the odds and against all the poisonous campaigning that has gone on from you and yours.

Hmm ... surely that should read, "UK money that was graciously redirected by the EU?"

Boris was just about to speak to the press but was chased off by what can only be described as a baying mob. Can it be that London doesn't like being told what to do by the rest of the country? Oh well.
Which one of the Tory wankers will get Cameron's job now? Interesting times foreshore.
