I respect people’s desire to remain. Please don’t confuse that with disrespect. 

But I also feel strongly that before anything we must deliver on the outcome of the referendum. Then we can move forward and who knows maybe end up back in the eu at a later date. We don’t know. 

But if this isn’t delivered (which it will be) it would signal the end of democracy in our political system. 

If we had an open invitation to get back in on today's tems in 5 years, I'd vote leave myself

Problem is, when we realise it's not the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, we are getting offered a shitty stick way back in

Your not getting one and rightly so because any impact assessment is not worth the paper it’s written on. 

We ain't getting one cos they all say you've voted for the biggest crock of shit going

Again nobody knows what we would get offered. 

The eu really do want to trade with us and would welcome us back should it come to that. 

But let’s get out deliver what the majority voted for and see what’s what. Simplistic I know but it’s how I see it.

I don't agree because the original vote was based on lies and no resemblance to reality. That is why this process has been so divisive.

What the fuck?

Most companies are under strict rules that say a risk assessment must be carried out for anything from picking a pen up to blowing a building to smithereens.

But you think changing the way an entire country runs itself shouldn’t bother?

Fucking. Wow.

Would you change your vote? No

would I? No. Were we all lied to? Yeah. 

and you know the biggest irony in this? I couldn’t change my vote now as a matter of principle. And if I’m honest if brexit stopped tomorrow financially I would be better off within the next 12 months  that’s a fact. 

But I simply cannot for anything accept the actions of those trying to derail this and then pass it off as doing it for the people. It’s laughable. So it’s a no from me

If democracy, whatever that means, is more important than your bank balance, you've too much money

What about 18/19 year olds who could not vote last time? They are entitled to have a say IMO.

If you have an impact assessment for leaving I want one for remaining, taking into account possible future costs and implications of PIGS needing bailing out Future free movement impact assessment should Turkey open the door to Syrians,  Future cost of the EU army, and cost of future new members who can’t pay their way, future qualitative easing plans etc.

Every time we have an election the electoral demographic changes daily thereafter no? . So it’s not unique to this situation. They will get a chance to vote again in the future in all likelihood. After we’ve left

Maybe tomorrow I’ll have a proper look, but I’d be very surprised if the EU doesn’t produce some sort of forecasts and plans for its members.

I will make it back. Short term pain. And if you didn’t have it you can’t miss it. 

I will just need to work that little bit harder for my money. Simple as that

All about England

Piss poor

Traitor

Utter rubbish if folk want their own independence then who are we to not give them that right. You don’t keep folk by not allowing them the freedom to decide their own path in the world. A United Kingdom that does not allow that freedom isn’t a Union I want to be part of.
