So a sell-off should be reason to believe that they should vote again? Its over, and people need to accept that.

You're from Canada, stay outta this.

That phrase should be applied for dozens of threads in this site where that guy posts.

Hilarious when someone is worried that a country that colonised a quarter the planets land area is worried about a couple of immigrants.

In 10 years it will be possible to talk about a United Eurasia, he added.

Yeah, no, thank you

I honestly think we have more in common with Russia than not (chrisitans with the same values most europeans have).

They basically are europeans, 80% of their population live in the european part of russia, instead of the asian part.

I would sooner see Russia part of EU, than Turkey.

 

*edit: Russia is frekking huge, supposedly the biggest country in the world, spaning about 1/8th of the inhabitable land area.

On most maps you dont really get right sense of just how big.

Russia is also so anti-EU and anti-NATO that they're willing to invade European countries over them trying to join the EU and NATO. Almost all Russian media is state-owned just so they can broadcast anti-Western Europe propaganda all the time. It's also more than normal in Russia that the government's opposition gets arrested on bogus charges, and sometimes even gets shot. I'd rather see WW3 than Europe allign itself with Russian in Russia's current form. If Russia wants to allign itself with Europe, fine. Stop invading European countries and return their territory, stop the 24/7 propaganda and get up to Europe's standards.

All it means there will be a discussion in Parliament, that's it, if you think there will be another referendum on our membership of the European Union then your'e seriously deluded.

 Yeah... we'll see, this crazyness cannot go any further.

Yeah i wouldn't consider a Brexit a 100% certainty at this point. The referendum isn't binding and although David Cameron has stated that he would respect the outcome, he won't be PM for long.

Besides the EU needs to push reform anyway to keep others from leaving, the outcome of the referendum has shown that the Eurosceptics have to be taken seriously. So these reforms might take care of some of the issues that were fueling the Brexit camp.

Lol, I was about to respond with the same especially when I read American comments on other sites expressing similar sentiments with no knowledge of British history. Who invented globalization if not Britain? Most people probably think America is the pioneer. If I were to venture a guess, I would bet that 90%+ of the non-whites in Britain are from countries in the former British Emipre.

I'm not sure there will. The EU seem hell bent on triggering it next week. So it might be too late anyway. Either way, they had the opportunity to cast their ballot. 28% decided the outcome did not matter enough to concern them. 1.6m people more overall voted to leave than remain. In England it was something like 58:42.

A second referendum now would cause an absolute headache and more uncertainty than just leaving.

The "crash" was hardly anything. We were supposed to have a £ worth less than a euro as of yesterday morning in the result of brexit, and all this about billions being wiped off the stock market here? It was higher than this time last week.

The media has really sensationalised this into a much bigger thing than it has so far actually been.
