Remain are coming out with a lot of Patronising BS this morning.

[2moreminutes]

Remain insults seem to have changed from

''those racists'' getting a bit old hat
to a lot of Fake Concern.
those poor, poor people. The government has used them to make a point'

FB is very entertaining at the moment.

Apparently we are all going to hell on a handcart.

But it's not my fault - (apparently I was used and manipulated)

Last time I looked Farage wasn't even an mp so how exactly did you think he could decide where any money goes?

"There are a lot of sore losers today. Come on we are better than this, its democracy in action. Stop moaning and make independence work for this country. The sky has not fallen in"

This is exactly the kind of thing that was said after the general election, but I'm sorry I think it's an unmitigated disaster, and if you can't see that it's at least very risky indeed I do question your level of understanding.

Since the Tories won at the general election there has been blow after blow to our country, this being the latest and most extreme. It's not nothing to do with being "sore losers". This is not a fucking game. We are heading for recession and that means suffering for many of us.

I am yet to see one solid argument for leave that stands up to scrutiny. Farage is already on TV admitting the Leave campaign lied.

In two hours the UK economy has lost $350 BILLION. That’s equivalent to 40 years of EU contributions.

We're going to lose our AAA credit rating.

If the arguments for Leave had been a bit more coherent then perhaps there wouldn't be so much vitriol being directed at the Leave voters.

The Leave campaign was based on lies and racist fear-mongering.

If the Leave voters actually voted for rational reasons that were nothing to do with the campaign, please do tell - what were they?

In a referendum where a large play has been made to make immigration a key issue, and to rouse the anger people feel over it to be translated into an economic tool then people are going to say this.

If you feel that leavers were not motivated by racism then you're very naive. I am not saying all are, some feel we are better off governing ourselves and immigration has nothing to do with it, but you just need to look around you on this site to see some of the horrific comments about taking our borders back and foreigners stealing our jobs.

As with anything, there are ignorant people everywhere. And they will be manipulated by politicians. Such is the way of life.

If you strip back all the niceties and get real for just a minute here, the vast majority of British people do not understand economics or what they have voted for and they base it entirely on principle rather than facts.

Many remainers have no clue what that means but they vote for "better the devil you know".

Many leavers have no clue what that means but they vote for "taking Britain back".

Part of the beauty, and horror, of democracy is that we vote on our general principles.

My general principles? that life on this planet is a team sport. That we belong in Europe, that we did not know enough about the impact long term of leaving the EU to have this referendum and we have acted rashly.

For those with the general principle that we are better off governing ourselves, and being responsible for Britain and only Britain - then all respect to them. Not my view, but a worthy view.

But as a remainer, I "remain" utterly convinced that many, many, many of those who voted to leave did so based on the misconception that our country is being taken over by foreigners and needs to be taken back.

To consider it not racist of being over-generous. I work in a restaurant where 70% of the staff are foreign, if they all left tomorrow the place would close down because no "white british" would want to wash dishes for minimum wage.

We are confused as a nation, but we have forgotten largely what national pride should be about. And it's not about closing our borders. It's about who we are, what we stand for and whether or not we stand together.

I hate the result of the vote, but I greatly appreciate that I live in a country where we get to vote.

So let's celebrate our Britishness this morning

The white British are soon going to have to take on these jobs as wont be able to afford university and no welfare system

I'm really fucking scared. I've said as much but I'm not unfriending people over it. It's the people who voted leave who will have to live with the consequences of their decision. I live with it knowing I did all I could to stop it. I was planning an emigration anyway (have been for many years now but have hit some hiccups due to bereavement and illness) this just speeds things up for us.

Oh God, do the Leave brigade ever stop moaning? Enough.

Some would actually FB unfriend people over their decision? Christ. That's a level of stupid that makes me wonder if they would have passed an intelligence test to qualify to vote!
I've got friends in both camps and amazingly nobody has unfriended anyone else - as it should be unless you're dealing with 4 year olds.

Millions of remain voters are terrified. The lack of empathy from many leave voters is shocking.

"Literally nearly half of the UK wanted to leave."

Literally 27% of the UK actively voted to leave.

Well if you were too apathetic to register to vote and/or vote then that's your own fault. We got our vote out and remain didn't.

The depressing thing is ordinary working people's vitriol to other ordinary working peoples democratic right to vote how they will.

The fight should be between us and the ruling elites, not between each other.
