I always love seeing people saying they lose faith in democracy when a democratic decision is made that isn't what they want.

Doesn't sound as though you like democracy at all.

Can't believe the UK is more likely to leave now. Didn't think that would even be a possibility. I'm worried about the implications on the EU and the world currencies and financial markets.

The British Pound as already fallen to 1985 levels.  Trading was halted in Japan.

But Hey, it might help all of North America with our more powerful and stable dollars.   Soon every Canadian might be a millionaire in the UK!

 

Largely this is going to impact Eastern European immigrants ... Polish, Romanians, Bulgarians, Hungarians, etc. that's where the majority of the UK's immigration was actually coming from.

I don't know!  I really don't.  That's an interesting quesiton.  I guess it would be just Whales, England, and they part they stole in North Ireland.

JK Rowling has make it clear she want Scotland to stay in the EU, so I guess they will be leaving the UK.  How does that even work?

The UK joined the EU because they saw all the benefits and stability Ireland was getting.  We here in the states benefitted cause it was cheaper to vacation here then just skip over to Ireland!  The pound was so weak against the Euro.  Now it's even worse.

I wonder how long till UK comes begging to come back. I'm sick, my opinion of every British person is now lowered.  They are like Trump supporters to me now.  Failure they are.

Although, they may really help the US Dollar and the US Economy.  Maybe it was all some noble plan to sacrifice their country to save the US From the Oligarchy that is taking over the USA.

Wow. So the British people are Trump supporters because they want control of their country? Is nationalism "Nazism" in the world of today? 52% of the UK voted to leave, and thats what is going to happen.

It's pretty much the same thing: isolationism, racism and oligarchy. 



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

My gosh. You really believe that a vote to take back democracy from a rich elite is racism? Wouldn't the EU be more of an oligarchy? And since there is less regulation coming out of the EU, thats the opposite of "isolationism". And since when is nationalism racist? What you're describing has no substance!



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

He couldn't give 2 shits about Scotland.

I'm sorry, but Scotland is a nation of 5 million. If you want Scotland to control the entire UK's political policy, then be my guest!

You misunderstood me, and I agree with you about Scotland, the tail has been wagging the dog for far too long.

Isn't almost everything imported from Asia?

yes. that is part of why exit won. The current deal structures they were in made it more economically feasible to produce the products in Asia. 

Well, now it will be even more atractive to make products in Asia.  Stable market, big work force, easy to trade all around the world.

UK will fall even more.  It's kinda funny,  but mostly sad.

Thing is, for once I think it has worked, and I am still being attacked... Guess we should simply group "anti establishment" with "unpopular opinions"! 

Good for all Brits out there! I wish we had our own poll. I sure as hell would love to bloody vote out of this circus! 

Congrats mates!

This is really bad. Not sure if it's a good decision for the UK, but it's a terrible decision for the EU.

Sorry. It did seem as if you were siding with him. Now I love Scotland, its a beautiful country with wonderful people. But this decision was made by the whole of the United Kingdom. One country can't dictate what the rest of the UK does, and I agree with you there.

Wow, the nerve of some people in here to downplay the choice of the voters ...

So the Brits are now the equivalent of Trump supporters and their failures ? LOL ...
