UK Leaves the EU - What happens next?

[BREWSTERS]

You're right, it's definitely good for exporters. Pity that the UK imports tens of billions of pounds more than it exports, though...

Hmmm, if only something would happen to boost exports...and make buying British raw materials more attractive

So basically this thread has turned into the other thread that is now closed, and the title of this thread doesn't make sense, not unless the UK have now decided leaving the EU wasn't enough, and we wish to leave ourselves too (imploding). To be honest, getting bored of it all already, no longer have the news on, all the same doom and gloom, recession, big mistake, dayZ, internal fighting. Maybe the so called experts that run this country shouldn't have been given this responsibility after all!

Couldn't agree more, the vote should never have happened but it did. Yes the news is depressing but again hyped up, the Bank of England simply needs to step in the bolster sterling but they are delaying that as well for some odd reason, as I say there is something fishy going on with all of this now. I think with the government reality has set in, they are not in control if they allow people to vote and they are not liked.

It would not surprise me to see a string of Tory cabinet resignations over the next few days (as is happening with Labour) as Remain-leaning MPs walk away and let the Leavers "own" their result, and its consequences.

I suspect you will be wrong again there. Hopefully anyway.

"The vote should never have happened"??

Wow....the very fact that the majority of voters voted against the status quo is proof that it should have.

How many people voted tory in the last general election, mainly, in part, or entirely, because Cameron promised to hold a referendum?

The leaders of the Leave campaign are suggesting we will retain access to the Single Market.
This means we have to keep paying in without any say and we keep free movement of labour.

The amount of money we pay and 'uncontrolled' immigration were probably the two biggest arguments in the campaign, and now it seems both positions have been abandoned.

I wonder how leavers feel about this - what are we actually getting out of Brexit?

A majority voted the Nazis into power. Majorities are not always right. In this case it is quite clear the majority were pretty badly informed, given the surprise at the outcome

This is about forward thinking not lamenting the past.

When leaders like Corbyn says the truth that we cant have a cap immigration while in the EU with access to the single market, he was attack for saying so, its looks like people like to be lied to.

In life we usually get what we ask for, we might not just know that we actually ask for it in the first place.

No. I find the idea of reporting crime to Facebook.com amusing.

the way I see it is that the people will elect a government to decide how we go forward. As I said earlier if the control of immigration is not in their manifesto they will trail behind UKIP.

This is only my opinion and I appreciate others opinions will be different.

Sorry I'll explain that, I voted leave but I voted to get control of the country back from the EU not a protest vote against London. Your point is 100% valid regarding voting for the tories at the last general election, my comment meant Cameron put everything on the line to win a general election, I doubt any other party anywhere would have done that. I am delighted he did, my comment meant as made the fatal mistake of assuming he'd win, he took the electorate for granted. I guarantee if another vote was held remain would win by 15%+ if people voted for what the ballot paper meant. Protest voters say leave as a vote against the government. I am delighted he did it but in all honesty if you were Cameron would you have made such a commitment to win a general election you were likely to win anyway just to get a few more seats. I am not even confident the vote will stand right now. I think if the EU quickly introduced better border controls, westminster could use the Scottish and Irish veto as an excuse and simply not block it. I don't think this is over yet by a long shot. So I am delighted the vote happened but it was probably assumed they would win or it would never have been on the table.

I think it's quite unlikely that UKIP could go from 1 MP to a majority.

What interests me is how people feel about having voted for Brexit on the basis of promises that have now been shown to be lies

No it doesn't.

The US has access to the single market.

They don't pay in.

They don't allow free movement.

Stop making this shit up.

I am disgusted, I see now why they do not want Farage involved, he would not allow it. Immigration was a key issue, I can see brexit not happening, I really can. There will be a revolt, I would be happy enough if the EU introduced sensible border control reform and allowed more independent law reforms. I knew straight away when Cameron delayed article 50 there were going to issues. This is tearing the country apart (quite literally in the case of Scotland and NI) needs to sorted fast not dragged on.
