to still be cross about the outcome of the EU referendum?

[mynamesnotsam]

I'm still so angry and can't forgive those who voted to leave. After the result there was much talk of how the two sides must put aside their differences but I don't feel there has been any attempt to try to appease the 48.1% of people who voted to stay. I also want to rip the head off any one who says it's the will of the people. They should be legally obligated to say it's the will of 51.9 % of the people who voted. If the vote had gone the other way you can bet that UKIP would still be making a huge fuss about it but remainers are expected to "just get over it"!

Yoko, so start a political movement to have one in ten years, don't wait for someone else to do it.

Ghandi was just one man as well but he could change a country. It would be betterto put your energy in something constructive.

Democracy allowed people to vote freely or chose not to vote.

If the Brexit decision gets overruled, does that set a precedent I.e. Come the GE and the wrong party wins, can those who didn't vote or get what they voted for, challenge the decision and get the GE result overturned?

Then watch the hand wring and gnashing of teeth 😀

The people voted, democracy prevailed, might have been the wrong decision, depending on your perspective but democracy came out on top.

Don't see a problem really

Hell no. I'm still furious about it.

I really don't care how anyone voted, its your vote and your choice. But I am fucking incensed that the 49.1% think it's somehow ok to disregard the votes of 51.9% of the population because they don't like the outcome. This they call democracy. This time it's my vote but the next time it could be yours. I honestly can't believe the number of people who find this acceptable. I might not like how you vote for but I would fight for your RIGHT to have your vote counted.

Wowfudge, I truly hope that is not the only reason for you to want to remain. And not being able to freely settle doesn't mean that there is absolutely ni possibility. People emigrate to all the corners of the EU.

Yup.
But hey, I have 4 years of shouting at the TV every time Trump comes on to look forward to.
The Remain campaign was so lame. No answer for the £350 mill crap etc.
I think democracy also equals freedom of speech, so I will moan as much as I bloody well want to.

Sorry I mean the world. Getting tired here.

I'm furious as well. It was advisory. The advice doesn't have to be taken. The UK will be left as a backwater of Europe, a playground for the super rich and a slum for the rest. The pound is worth shit now. Do people understand the implications of this?

It's dire.

I'm too busy to start a political movement It's not my job to mop up the mess a bunch of clueless muppets have created

Can we channel some of this anger towards David Cameron btw? His stupidity and arrogance landed us in this god forsaken mess in the first place.

Lizzylou, but so will I!

I don't think they necessarily disregard them star it's more questioning why they voted the way they did etc. Like questioning why such a high percentage of white women in the US voted for trump. It's fair to question who voted for who/what and why.

Yoko, you could give them a clue. Change doesn't have to be forever.

I'm European living here and it's depressing but I am so bored of the fear, moaning and hate. Let's be productive and stop with the negativity.. it's doing nothing but dragging us down. Let's take action instead of rehashing the injustice.

I voted leave, you're all welcome ;)

If you don't want option X to win a vote, campaign harder for option Y, instead of bitching about it post vote.

Here here LaurieMarlow but he's alright, his super rich mates will be happy in the little tax haven if the UK and no doubt he will reap the benefits.

Of course it's natural to still be cross if it's something you passionately did not want, but I think your anger is misplaced.

Why aren't you cross at the Remain campaign who totally utterly failed to show any positives of staying in the EU? Why aren't you cross instead with DC for holding the referendum in the first place? Be cross with Labour for failing and failing to talk about immigration properly over the last decades. Blame MP's for allowing people to believe that the EU is to blame for UK declining fisheries, bendy bananas etc so that it looked like they were not accountable.

Don't blame the people who went out and voted with the best information they had just because its different to yours.

I don't need your forgiveness. Because by exercising my democratic right and having a (majority) opinion that is different to yours does not make me "wrong"

There is no right and wrong. Mostly because no one has a crystal ball.

I did not vote on misinformation, I voted because I want my children and future grandchildren to have a chance at a better life.

I want my country to be unified, I don't want anymore ghettos in towns and cities. . Everyone already here needs to learn how to integrate better and work better towards the common goal.

I don't believe their will be an EU in 40 years times. I don't agree with junkers idea of an EU army.

I'm glad we are leaving. I'm excited for what lies ahead.

I'm not cross anymore.

I'm resigned and utterly terrified. My town, my whole region in fact needs manufacturing to survive. I don't even want to think about what will happen to the local economy if we leave the single market. To add insult to injury my boss (a small business owner) is an EU national. He is giving serious consideration to packing his family up and moving back to their county of birth.

I voted remain and im heartily sick of all the whining.

I voted because I want my children and future grandchildren to have a chance at a better life

How will leaving the EU give them this?

And there is no EU Army, there will never be an EU Army. That was a myth.

trinkets are you my mother? She believes everything she reads in the Daily Mail too.

God - these threads always go the same way. I am really not looking forward to a future without the EU.

'Campaign harder'

Tricky when the gutter press controls most of the dissemination of information. My word against the Daily Mail's. My MIL never listens to a word I say but she sure as hell pays attention to whatever shite Dacre is spouting when she flicks through the Mail in Sainsbo's

Why wouldn't you be cross?

Today I heard that my friend's company is moving to Ireland in the next couple of years. They won't be the only ones.

HSBC is moving to France.
