We will have to accept the consequences of our vote. The country will pull through but it will probably take 5+ years to get through the worst of it and once we have done that we will be prosperous once again and free of the EU's malevolent influence.
I voted out for purely patriotic reasons, which is ironic since I'm not even English but this country took my countrymen and parents in, gave them a place to live and jobs.
Are you English? If you are then it's ironic as it seems that I'm more loyal to this country than you are. If that is the case then shame on you.

Actually, I'm British.
I was born in Scotland, but have spent the best part of the last 40 odd years in England (apart from a lot of the the time I spent as a member of HM Armed Forces, but obviously I am not loyal to my country because I voted to remain).
Simplistic divisive statements from any part of the spectrum don't help progress a solution to a very complex issue.
