This bloke said a 52% to 48% result would not be conclusive. http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/nigel-farage-wants-second-referendum-7985017

A voice of reason.The people voted out,albeit by a narrow margin,so out we are.Politicians must now negotiate a settlement,although,had they negotiated better terms a few months ago,we would probably still be in.
It is my firm belief that Brussels,&/or Strasbourg,are seriously worried that others will follow suit,& the gravy train could be shunted in to a siding. In a few years time,somebody will come up with a genius idea like'Why don't we have free trade,& movement of people within Europe?'

The comments at the bottom of the publication are worth a read, especially  the comment off Ken from Beiras, he has hit the nail on the head for me. | Totally agree with Ken from Beiras

Is the implosion starting sooner than expected. BBC News states: EU leaders are particularly worried about the prospect of "contagion",
with the UK's decision already fuelling demands from populist, anti-EU
parties in France and the Netherlands for referendums of their own on EU
membership.

If you are going to make a statement make it correct. I merely pointed out to you when you started ranting about a post that the poster was being ironic not flippant.

I wasnt having a dig at Middlesbrough only giving the response of voters there when asked what they voted and why,of all that were asked only one had voted in the past 20yrs or so.This was probably the same where I live Bacup in Lancs. Apologies for the spelling but I am used to people spelling my last name wrong all the time. |
Please don`t feel the need to apologise. With you stating Middlesbrough I took it as an underhand dig as I am from those parts when maybe it wasn`t intended that way. Everybody is entitled to their opinion/feelings. Just sometimes people get personal for no reason. Mind I can understand people getting your second name wrong it`s not a very common surname....enclive

it's alright saying let's rule our own country but what sort of industries is left from what was there forty odd years ago? London has got great banking but that will go as sterling will be defunct in an euro zone, I get the idiotic Brussels thing where they make stupid rules having lived in Ireland they had rules to stop turf cutters in one area of the same county but let others cut away when in fact the area they were cutting was there private land and then there was the water charges and the way they charged for waste collection all done in Brussels yea but for me life is to short

I guess he voted "remain" then And he probably wouldn't have written any of that if we had voted for what he wanted. I also voted "remain" but there's no sour grapes from me because on reflection I'm not that disappointed that we're out.

I hate how peopleï compare Frank Zappa to God. I mean, he's cool and great and nice and everything, but he's no Zappa.
