BREXIT Just Happened...

If you can't understand why uncontrolled migration into a country over a short period of time is a detriment, that's your problem. If it's such a positive, why don't we have a global open border policy? Enlighten me.

Case and point. "30% of your population is in poverty, but saying you want to limit immigration to help the situation means you are as bad as Trump". WTF.

*sigh*

No. Speaking of the economic factors, jobs, etc.

But I legitimately do not have the time to go into right now.

Ideally we wouldn't have borders. :p

It doesn't really seem uncontrolled... There's clearly a method in place but you just don't like it... There are clearly benefits and downsides to it but my problem with your argument in total is that you don't really seem to have any evidence to back up your claims... You can't answer simple questions and you have no clue at all how this exit will affect you... Are you willing to lose all the benefits gained for the ones you lost? Do you even know what the benefits were to being in the union or did you just say oh hey immigration needs to stop as it currently is?

it just doesn't appear like you really have any idea why you voted that way other than someone telling you that immigration as it currently is is bad for the country... You don't even seem to know how many legal immigrants you have in the uk or how it affects the uk... Not really my problem though... Just curious in the beginning and making an observation now... Take it for what you will...

:o market seems to be stabilizing

Like always, it was only a matter of time. Since it was such a short downturn things must have not been as bad as "everyone" thought.

Oh great, socks too now..

Make one too, call it "Brenter" and use a British Empire themed avatar.

I wouldn't say it's over yet... I'd be wary about the telecom giant considering leaving England altogether as its base of operations... Among others possibly considering the jump... Also you guys still have to renegotiate everything as well... It's gnna be a long stretch before this all gets worked out...

There is a lot of waiting now.

When will the UK trigger article 50?
What trade deal will they get?
Will Scotland and Northern Ireland leave? Or will they block legislation?
Who will be the next PM?
Will businesses be leaving?

The UK is headed for a recession, higher taxes, and cuts in services.

The rest of the world is now just waiting to see how this will effect the global economy.

You act like none of the above has never happened before.


So when the market is dropping like a stone you say this. Then when it levels out you still say this. When it starts to go up are you still gong to say this? Seems like a pretty bold statement considering

As long as Britain keeps their funny accent they will be ok !

Lets be realistic here, a "utopia" is impossible with our current level of technology. Right now we exists with "haves" and "have nots" because there cannot be such a thing as a free lunch. Anything someone gains is going to be taken from someone else, thats why resources are being scoured from Africa, South America, the middle east, and the Australian interior as we speak. If the world was completely borderless it would instead change to mob rule, creating the exact same situations we have now but far more violent.

There is a time the world will be ready for no borders, and that is in a post scarcity society, with many machines, and a "guaranteed income". That time is not yet in our grasp.

Why even have countries anymore ? Let's just be like ISIS and declare a caliphate and destroy any and all aspects of civilized society.

Actually the first three questions have indeed never happened before. And of course the market is going to "stabilize" at some point, its not going to keep falling. But just because it has stopped plummeting doesn't mean its recovering. It will take years for the currency to recover, some people are forecasting a 1:1 exchange rate by the end of the year.
There is nothing to celebrate about the market flattening out, especially since there are still plenty of things that are going to make it fall further. Can pretty much guarantee whenever Article 50 gets invoked it will drop again.

Siemens is pulling out of their investment in wind turbines, also.

We haven't even begun to ask how this will reflect on the markets after the UK is finally cut off. This is still in transitional phase.

Well...the UK has never triggered article 50 before. Uncertainty is not easy to quantify and there is a long road ahead.


Brexit: George Osborne says tax rises and spending cuts needed

There is some things to celebrate it is much cheaper now to travel to London on vacation.

It was funny today I saw an opinion piece on England becoming the 51st state lol...

I'll give you the first one, kind of. All people are saying is it is going to be bad. It could work out in a very good way.

Trade deals happen all the time and Scotland and Ireland are always causing problems.

The rest of what you said is conjecture at best.

What is the very good way it could work out?

I'd explain it to you but judging by the past few pages you are not interested in peoples answers or opinions.

I thought England was already part of the US

Anyone see the Boris Johnson pornhub vid title?

So you have no idea then? Not surprising...

No I've never seen anything on pornhub...*walks away slowly*

Why waste valuable aptitude on someone who obviously doesn't even care to comprehend due to his pronounced ineptitude.
