i like how your people pretty much had 100% of EUs advantages and about 60% of the costs (relative to ALL other EU countries) and still (!) complained, and how now you guys expect to keep all the advantages and just get rid of the disadvantages and all your politicans go back on their words. Thats what you get for following the empty promises of your leaders which were falsified mere hours AFTER the votes were done. Being without the EU or anything Britain will soon be even more dependant on the US or other partners, unless they want to disappear entirely from the political and economic stage of the world.
I dont reaaaally feel sorry at all.
this comment may sound trollish or mean but its not meant to hurt but it is my (admittedly cynical) personal pro european opinion.

It is dividing your union due to fear. You're literally giving into fear, and nothing good comes from dividing people. You may "feel" independent now, but it'll take a turn for the worse later. You had a good deal as it was. With such a strong economy as the UK's bowing out, how do you think that'll fare for the rest of Europe? Germany cant pull all of Europe along on its own.
Even the economist, a world renowned, credible magazine says that Brexit was a very poor decision.
Well, both of these last comments are making it sound like it was all of the people in UK that wanted to leave. And that's just grinded my gears a bit. As you can see, it was an even split. Everyone I know voted to stay, as it was the most sensible option. I don't really have much more to add, other than don't make it sound like we all wanted out. We really didn't, half of us anyways.

Eh if it was the US it'd be "most of us just didn't vote" haha. No I believe most of you didn't want to leave though.

Good xP well, not good about the first thing, but uh, yeah. I'm honestly not one for politics at all despite being the one who created this thread. But something like this it's hard to ignore, but what's done is done now.

They'll be leaving gradually over a 2 year period, far as I'm aware. During that time its possible to come out with another bill to stop the leave.
