No. Most of the people living in London are what you would consider working class. Also, They, just like the working class all over the United Kingdom will bear the brunt of the cost if leaving the EU causes economic problems. The working class are going to have to deal with negative equity, and the possibility of job losses. The wealthy won't. They'll just weather the storm or leave the country.
I wouldn't know about that and neither do I really care. It's a different planet down there. I know this as I'm married to a Kentish woman and have been numerous times. Kent has been devastated whilst the rest prosper. Why, isn't that where Dover is? You'd have thought they would have included them in their little club. Planet Thanet, as it's affectionally known, is Finished. Margate, once a lovely place is devastated. My God they should try living in the North East.

You and your mates have banged on for years on how the EU is evil, how it is bad for the country, etc. etc. etc. and you have the gall to say, that now that you have won the vote, that we all have to get behind the government.

What a load of hypocritical BS.
WE, the people. And No I didn't but do support them if I think they are right.

Probably as many as Leavers who thought that £350 million per week extra would go to the NHS, and that VAT would be reduced in fuel bills...

And of course, it was never actually said that leaving the EU would lead to WW3, but don't let biased reporting and inflammatory headlines ruin a good fact...

Speaking of uneducated. I'll pick your dummy up it's ok. A sore loser indeed. Read between the lines. We, the people, Hypocritical? I think not. The EU IS evil and corrupt. It is bad for the country. And where did I say we won the vote? I'm not one to gloat. I know we have some hard times ahead and if that means another year of austerity then so be it. You'll not be greeting when the benefits start coming in of being free of the EU.

People are asked, when polled, these questions.

Having just watched Emily Thornberry on sky... I think I found her strangely "sexy" almost. Very strange indeed,

Re: Post-Brexit Thread

The link to voting for a 2nd referendrum is flawed.

If you search the meta it you can see that 33,841 people who have signed it are from Vatican City but Vatican City only has a population of 842.

Is a childish reply all you can offer here?

This vote has raised many questions on how the country was potentially misled and all you and your mates can do is reply with playground insults?

How old are you exactly?

Don't forget they said the NHS would be under threat! He clearly stated the "ring fenced NHS budget would be under threat"
