Won by only? 3.9%
With 75% voter turnout, do you realize how many millions of votes that is?...

I heard it was the highest number of voters that turned out since the early 90's.
What I don't understand is why politicians quit as soon as things don't go their way. (In an ideal world we should be able to sack them for failing to deliver what they promised). Last year the Labour and Liberal Democrats leaders both quit when they failed to make it to No. Ten. This year Cameron has quit though it was his idea. I think Corbyn is doing the right thing by sticking with his party despite the referendum not going his way.

I just wonder why so many seem shocked to find out we live in a democracy. These days the so called activists are protesting freedom of speech and democracy.
Ready to trade their souls for safety, an unattainable thing in any case.
Ask yourself why the war on guns when 3D printers will make them available privately to all in a decade and available now to those with a bit of cash.
There are many questions everyone should be asking

I read that the vote is just a vote,
and not legally binding.
Also,
the actual process of decoupling from Urop
would be a slow process
spread over up to ten years.
I dont live there though.
I did see the water fight with the boats made it on the news here.

More than half of Americans were against Obama, they survived a re-election.
The british people are divided along class lines and voted that way. All stats show the higher your income and lifestyle the more likely you voted to sttay. The farmers, fishers, builders, real people were hugely for leaving. The ones who were o top wanted to keep it that way or they bought the fear mongering that life would get worse.
And you are welcome for my input, won't be back.
Enjoy your discussion.

UK have been a member for 40 years, then voted themselves out. lucky enough UK never switched currency. so far the only people to suffer from the exit are the top 400 worlds richest who lost 127 billion between them yesterday. they'll take another hit too if TTIP can't be ratified by UK
re: republic of Ireland and it's aspirations for a United Ireland ...there is none, not in its present government. plus all the cases pertaining to human rights breaches by UK government and it's agents in Ireland will most probably be dropped now
either way, Europe is a failed entity. and the likely-hood of NATO dragging us into a confrontation with Russia is very real.

Craic has hit the nail on the head.
The UK will face some uncertain times sure, but the question for the remain voters I hypothetically pose. Where do you see the UK being in 5 years had we remained in the EU

ok, but while there may be a will among Irish people for unity, our present government has none.
more than that though: there's a huge number of Queen Lizzy's loyal subjects (some 800,000) who currently abode in the occupied counties. they have, on many occasion proven fanatical to a degree where a rumour can bring them and they're legaly owned guns to the streets.
that said, given the democratic process in the occupied counties concluded with ' we'd like to stay in Europe ' but the overall vote of the kingdom arrived at the opposite conclusion, it would seem Ulster unionists find themselves in a bit of a pickle
there is however the promise of a border poll in The good Friday agreement signed by both British and Irish governments some time back, and demographics have changed considerably
yesterday the Scottish assembly legislated for another referendum of independence from UK.
but, come on Scotish assembly ..you're an agent of Westminster. product of 1994 Scottish devolution act. there's no referendum which would bind Westminster to give Scotland independence
some band of Bravehearts are gonna have to declare Scotland a republic and brave the wrath of the assembly, the people and the UK government
personally, I don't see what all the hysteria is about. the EU is primarily a trade block with free movement for citizens of contries within the block.
UK citizens mught have to flash their passports at borders and possibly apply for visas in the case of immigration or work (depending on agreements or treaties made with countries on a one to one basis)
thing is, if it made a huge amount of difference either way, both campaigns might have had some substance and truth to them
most of the stuff being churned out was sensationalist.
UK is still a part of NATO and Five Eyes so there's no major loss to European security.

I got lectured last week from someone in Mumbai about what is going on in my Country and all I can say is there's some weird propaganda being spread (and believed) around the world. I'm from Working class stock (and proud of it ) and from where I stand your common or garden man in the street is fed up with being given stupid rulings from somebody we didn't elect nor have any control over. Whether it was unwise to vote us out for such things remains to be seen, but we were Great Britain before and will be again. I've seen posts from an American calling us a shitty little island, but at least we don't go round shooting up our schools or having to beg for Medical attention.
