EU Referendum

The real question he will need to answer is really why he offered the referendum in the first place,I voted leave but I am not blind enough to wonder why such a monumental referendum was offered in the first place.

That's definitely an interesting question "for the history books", but the answer would be completely irrelevant to the complex and rapidly evolving situation that's developing as a result of the vote for brexit.

And just to cheer everyone up

Here was his prize pearl of wisdom this morning...

"Nigel Farage, the Ukip leader, has told ITV’s Good Morning Britain that he thought it was a mistake for the Vote Leave campaign to say that it could save £350m a week by leaving the EU and that the money could go to the NHS."

Here's what Nigel Farage said - you really need to watch the video, see him speak, to get the full flavour.

Susanna Reid is one clueless person, her v Kay Burley would be an amazingly fun interview to watch. There would literally be no sense out of it.

I don't see why Nigel should get the blame for it @Edwin , it wasn't his campaign. He wasn't in Vote Leave. By the way though, he was actually saying that through the campaign, it's not like he has just started now.

Had I have been alive at the end of ww2. I would like to think that rather than dancing in the Mall, I would have sat quietly to spare thought for the millions who had died in what was a fruitless war other than the victory in defence of democracy and self determination.

The arrogance of the tory leader in the campaign is undeniable .
The underhanded selfishness of the labour leader with his hidden agenda, and his small supporting group of MP's now desperately holding on to what's left of their political ambitions. Listening to Diane Abbott blaming everyone and everything other than her beloved leader is nothing less than sickening .
What was the hidden agenda of labours outlook for immigration., the statement of uncapped immigration was a red rag to a bull. Surely they could detect that many millions of people could not all be racist.

Was it the race card that lost it ? Were people who spoke about immigration fed up to the teeth of being labelled racist and did the people who felt they could win every argument by the abusive use of race relations and convenient self selective rules of political correctness, in the end tip the balance.

Should have bought more gold yesterday. Financial markets will settle. Good result for the long term I feel. Here's to an interesting future...

Firstly, well done on your pationate campaign, but Corbyn's statement of uncapped immigration is a correct one.

We can't cap immigration while we are in the EU, that the correct statement, but people spinning the statement.

One thing that has not been raised, when discussing Corbyn, is what happens in 11 days.

The labour party will be ripped apart. That might well be the reason he has kept a very, very low profile for a party leader. Caroline Lucas has had more of a profile than him. Half his party don't seem to support him, and the other half may well have to resign.

Chilcot report gets published on Iraq in 11 days.

On the plus side, I don't think there's ever been a better time to buy a .uk domain name!

Why on earth Corbyn didn't stick to his anti EU guns is beyond me. He sticks to his principles all the time, ever god dam losing principle that man has and he holds it closely until it explodes on him.

The one winning principle he has held for decades, and he ditches it. He's what we call a looser.

Pound's bouncing back already, already up 4% on it's lows a couple of hours ago.

It's labour policy to stay in, he can't change that and that's why he is not enthusiastic about campaign to stay.
There are loads of labour party members that don't support it but quietly vote to leave, even Diane Abbot don't really support remain from time either.

For me, all this economy talk is not really a thing, a lot of events cold trigger the same situation and city will bet either way and correct itself with a new baseline.

Pounds will be back and it will all be behind us in few weeks.

I hope now that we have decided to leave, all sides will have to work together to make sure our exit of EU does not break up our communities.

My business is already affected. Pound sterling crashed hard, falls to 3 decades low http://www.telegraph.co.uk/business...erling-surge-or-slump-as-the-eu-referendum-c/

I hope it is temporary :/

Well he didn't exactly put any weight behind his argument. He had a tea party debate with a bunch of kids where he spent most of the time talking about Jo Cox and then defended our place in the EU by talking about workers rights and the 4 weeks holiday. And then of course saying you could reform the EU but uncapped immigration was not on that agenda showed he had no desire to support the remain campaign and stay. But there was a hedge, if we remained he felt he had a future promoting change in the EU to form a socialist Europe. He is a very self confessed Marxist and thankfully his window of opportunity is closing tight.

I never voted for him, but I agree wholeheartedly with that statement.

Oh, what a tangled web we weave: When first we practice to deceive!

Never has there been such a good example of this.
