When were you when the UK was kill?

[Spastic]

So "brexit" won, Cameron resigned, the EU is probably fucked, and the UK might just be the United England soon. 2016 is gonna be a fucking crazy year once we elect trump, everyone hold on to your butts.

i think the most interesting aspect is the loss of the PM

is there any actual UK spamers still around to discuss this

ok serious question: so the vote was like, 52/48 or something. 53/47, whatever

i know its rough but maybe we should have to fight past a standard deviation or two, right? i mean, if you redid the vote in a parallel universe where everyone in the UK woke up a second later, the vote would (statistically) change maybe to the other side. +2 or +3 are not very wide margins, is what im saying

im not sure why my post was deleted when i genuinely believe the uk should be disbanded and scotland and wales liberated and this is the first step towards it

[Ben]

because a pithy statement about it is nowhere near as contributory as what you just said

[fat lesbian]

the original post talked about this potentially being the beginning of the end for the uk and you could have gleaned all the context i used in the second post from that but o k

honestly the uk is wacky because they have unelected lords with veto power but I don't know if this applies to a referendum. everyone is treating it as a definite thing, though, so I assume a simple majority can make structural changes in the country? can you vote out the queen? yeah we really need a brit here

[Ben]

after a long meditation on the subject i have come to the important realization that "brexit" likely stands for "british exit". im glad this point of contention has been solved in my mind

People are asking for a re-run because it feels like the brits had no idea of what they were getting themselves into. Scotland and Northern Ireland make a point of staying in the EU and since the UK is leaving, they will leave the UK so they can apply to the EU. Meanwhile, Nigel "Crazypants" Farage has pretty much admitted that he doesn't care about the meaning of the words coming out of his mouth (http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/pol...99906.html). The rest of the EU is regrouping so the brits get out as soon as possible, and the backlash so far seems to affect the UK much more than it does the EU (as I assumed it would).

Demographic breakdown of the vote.

Kinda surprised that the oldest choose to leave, tbh. Historically the brits usually side with europe, I guess all the muslims made them think .
