The Thread of BREXIT

[cronus]

Country gets the leader it's collective intelligence deserves so Boris Johnson is spot on.

[Tyrannical]

Nigel Farage, PM...

Would it be that much worse than boris johnson?

Boris and Trump could complement each other's hair

[JimC]

Give me Boris any day...

A group walks into a restaurant to celebrate a friend's birthday. The customers wait for someone to seat them but no one comes. Eventually they seat themselves at an empty table. They wait some more for someone to come and take their order but again, no one. Eventually they see a card on the table that says "to place your order, cook and pay for your meal download this app"
Wanting to speak to someone about hiding their yet to arrive birthday friend's surprise cake (in the shape of an England football jersey with Euros 2016 on it) one guy noted a customer service number on the card. He called the number and a young lady answered the phone.
"Hello, I'm sitting in your restaurant and waiting for the server but don't see anyone around. Do you know what's happening?"
The young lady replied "There are no servers, sir."
"But why not?"
"Because there are no immigrants any more"
"But why can't you hire any British servers?"
The young lady laughed, "Don't be stupid. The Brits don't want those jobs. Oh, and if you can take your plate to the kitchen and wash it at the end as we don't have anyone to wash up either"

"Fuck you, we'll go someplace else."

That would to be a place outside little England's borders.

NHS and overcrowded schools should be just about instantly fixed as refugees and mooching immigrants are shown the door. Benefits spending goes down, and they can finally kick out the criminals hiding behind EU human rights laws.

Wrong. How simple things seem in Tyrannoworld. The NHS depends on foreign drs, nurses, ancillary and clerical staff. The social care sector too is heavily invested in migrant labour. Benefits tourism is virtually non-existent, with economic migrants not qualifying for benefits, and besides coming here to work and all, and EU citizens being no better off coming here to claim benefits than if they'd stayed at home. And sending a few prisoners back to their own countries to be tortured or killed isn't going to impact on the system. This vote is not the panacea touted by the Brexit camp.

Jeez Britain, I go away for a couple of days and you go mad. What were you thinking?!?

Massive unemployment issue amongst the disabled and a growing one amongst the youth. The main issues are educational underachievement brought about by substandard teachers. And policies to clear a level playing field for the disabled.

[Brian Peacock]

Ah, ok, it's the teachers fault and not the EUs. And whose been taking the corporate wrecking-ball to education? Ah, not the EU either.

[pErvinalia]

Profoundly depressed.

Cheer-up. Cameron is gonna resign this morning. Every cloud has a silver lining.

But then you get Boris.

I remember in 2014 when the people of Scotland were told that we should vote against our independence in order to stay in the EU ....
:- Scotland voted in favour of the UK staying in the EU by 62% to 38% - with all 32 areas backing Remain.

[pErvinalia]

It is nice to know we aren't the only country totally fucked by complete idiots. It is nice to not be the only laughing stock of the world.

Up late shorting the piss out of my portfolio, BTW. Thanks Brits.

I bet a new independence referendum is in order... I wish Scotland a fast track into the EU.

Not the only, no, but the best, if you include your news service, FOX. According to it, the UK has just voted to leave the UN.
