One word answer: are you pleased or pissed off A50 is being triggered tomorrow

[PetallyTyrants]

Pleased
or
Pissed off (ok, 2 words)

(or if you don't like swearing you can vote displeased)

Hoping for a miracle

And hoping that I'm completely wrong and that isn't going to have catastrophic consequences for this country.

I'm very likely to lose my job because of Brexit but that means nothing compared to the wider economic, social and political divisions that are only just starting. And it seems to me that it's going to hit those who thought they would benefit from Brexit the hardest.

Do you think using names like "remoaners" and attacking people who don't agree with you is a good way to get them onside?

I don't want to get them 'onside.'

I couldn't care less if they get used to the idea, or if they cry into their cornflakes til hell freezes over. It's happening. End of.

Not arsed as it is unlikely to affect me much. if it affects others then I feel for those that voted remain and didn't want it but have no sympathy for those that it affects who wanted it. That's just life.

Nice, littlefrog, aren't you a shining example of what makes our country great!

Absolutely gutted. I don't necessarily feel strongly about staying in the EU long term, but I think we should at least have had an contingency exit plan in place long before the choice was offered. As it stands, no-one seems to have a clue what we are supposed to be doing.

I also feel that many people were misinformed and thought that by voting 'Leave' they were opting to save the NHS.

Nice.
Someone posts how worried they are about losing their job, and extends sympathy for those leave voters who will suffer badly from the economic fallout.

Poster below makes sneery comment about "crying into cornflakes".

And yet, remainers are all supposed to be the big meanies who keep "attacking" (read: disagreeing with) the poor ickle leavers.

Anxious.
Hoping that the dire prognostications of doom about Brexit proper will be as wrong as were the dire prognostications of doom to follow immediately on an 'out' vote.

And I don't mean Trump:so sad, I mean genuinely sad.

60 years of peace and prosperity, I can't believe we didn't even send someone to the celebrations to say thanks.

I mean you are allowed to go your own way without it being a fuck you moment aren't you? It could have been, 'thanks for the good times but now we are off to try nationalism for a bit again' couldn't it?

Really really heart sore.

Pissed off.

GloriaV If Frexit under Le Pen happens: two long shots - possibly. That will be that for the EU I reckon. Italy are looking for way out too by what Ive read.

So, littlefrog. How is Brexit going to benefit you, personally?

I can't muster up masses of sympathy for people who claim to be losing their jobs. The profession of the main income earner in my household has been pretty much decimated by EU membership. And I can't really remember these people giving much of a stuff when it happened to someone else's job.

"The profession of the main income earner in my household has been pretty much decimated by EU membership."

What profession's that?

I have a vague, unevidenced fear that in some cases the effects of global capitalism are being laid at the EU's door. I do wonder whether people will be shocked to see less, not more, protectionism if we go for a hard 'free trade' set of policies....

I think from memory he's a builder bertrand

pissed off

...possibly fishing? Maybe something farming related?

Having suffered risk/loss of employment in your household can you not have empathy for others in the same position BillSykes?

Or is this the Brexit 'stuff it to them' vote? I'm not happy so I want others to suffer too?

Ah, building.

Amazing team of Poles did my kitchen extension. I can understand that competition like that hurts.

The EU have said we are allowed to retract A 50 if we wish. So there's hope yet

Let's face it, nobody knows what the guck is going to happen so if it looks like things will be much worse fir the UK, we can indeed change our minds.

Excuse typos!

No European builders to be found in this area

Its mission impossible getting any quotes as they are all so busy

As with everything it must delend on the area

Depend

I hate mumsnet at the moment

All my posts disappear when i am half way through

Its a fucking race against time and im spelling everything wrong

Even spell check is pissed off with me

And yet, remainers are all supposed to be the big meanies who keep "attacking" (read: disagreeing with) the poor ickle leavers.
totally agree. The charmers are out in force today with their tedious "deal with it" posts.
Misspriggy - where have you read that Italy are looking for a way out? The Lega Nord monthly? The EU isn't flavour of the month with some areas but am not remotely getting the impression that the country is looking to leave. Anecdote it may be but pretty much everyone I have come into contact here as part of my daily life has asked me about Brexit and the general consensus seems to be - the EU isnt ideal as it stands and Italy is being royally shafted re refugee and migrant levels and our economy is stagnant but you lot have collectively lost your marbles by leaving. Usually followed by - but you were never really in were you and you never really saw yourself as being part of the EU. And then the conversation moves on because noone actually sees Brexit as being that interesting apart from it being an obvious conversation topic to have with a Brit when she is buying her veg or getting her coffee.

I kind of feel it's like new year 2000 when people expected anything electrical to break, banks to crash, the sky to fall in...

When in reality folk just plodded on, still here..

Stock exchange has been a bit of a none event.

I think all the self flagellation has to stop now.
