I know there will be difficult times ahead.

Staying there was also going to be difficult times afraid.

But I think it's the way forward ! I'm pleased change is on the cards.

Everyone's smiling here today Grin

Off out for a few drinks tonight to celebrate Wine

Can't believe there are Remainers on this thread still trying to convince us of the error of our ways. Too late now - you snooze, you lose.

I fell asleep at around 2am on Friday morning thinking that remain won. Woke up a few hours later with a pleasant surprise. I am a happy leaver.

The amount of venom for brexit voters is staggering. I expected some backlash, but the ageism is staggering, why isn't there venom for the younger people who didn't bother? Turnout in areas with a younger demographic was low. If remainers had the passion they seem to have now on the build up to the vote, the result could have been different.

Look at how much the European Union changed in 40 years, imagine what it would be like in another 40 shudders

This thread is like a bunch of turkeys preparing their own delicious stuffing on the morning of 25th December June.

You still haven't worked out that you voted for Christmas and your own demise Hmm

Roll on boxing day and the tasteless leftovers...

Penvelopesnightie · 25/06/2016 13:02

Yep because really Camerons campaign just wasn't sitting right with me , he's a dickhead, I had my doubts all along and now I'm glad we are out.

RortyCrankle · 25/06/2016 13:06

I don't know about other Leavers but I don't give a damn what anyone says about us - sticks and stones and all that. In fact reading all the doom and gloom threads on here the last two days has given me a good laugh so cheers to the Remainers for that Grin

The BBQ's on, Pimms is flowing, all Leavers welcome, bouncers at the door to keep away the doomer gloomers.

Madbengalmum · 25/06/2016 13:06

Absolutely stunning how the so called Tolerance for others preached by the remainers has proved to be utter rubbish. Some people who have commented on this thread should be disgusted at their comments of denigration towards others.
And the supercilious nature of these comments, well. I am embarrassed for them. They need to show some class.

GertrudeBelle · 25/06/2016 13:06

Because Brexit is just like a dodgy interior design decision.

If you are trying to dispel the rapidly growing belief that Brexiteers simply do not understand what they have done, you are going the wrong way about it.

In answer to your query - no, I reserve my interventions for only the most crass and inappropriate discussions.

Penvelopesnightie · 25/06/2016 13:08

Yea this thread is for Brexiters to celebrate not get bullied by doom mongers with that what ifs and " Google" that . They are trying to sabotage our celebration .

Madbengalmum · 25/06/2016 13:11

Funny really, i always see the christmas leftovers as the best bit!

MangoMoon · 25/06/2016 13:13

*"We've got our country back so there won't be any funeral"
*
Please tell me what that means!

I took that to mean we've taken absolute political control of our country back.

We are no longer shackled to a decaying & imploding behemoth.

Why, what did you think it meant Bertrand?

Mooingcow · 25/06/2016 13:15

Love and peace and whack a steak on for me,Rorty.

All that staying up and shenanigans at my age has depleted my protein.

Think I'll get my eyebrows waxed after the barbie.

Anyone got any other exciting plans for this soggy Saturday?

MangoMoon · 25/06/2016 13:17

The 'tolerance' continually handed out benignly to us by the 'left leaning' on MN has been shown up as false in the last couple of days.

MangoMoon · 25/06/2016 13:18

I had a celebratory pedicure today Mooing!

RortyCrankle · 25/06/2016 13:20

Steak's on Mooing. I thought I would spend the afternoon gloating about Leave winning Smile

TriniRedVelvet · 25/06/2016 13:22

I meant somewhere else on mumsnet.

Let me be clear. I am not racist. I am not xenophobic (I'm an immigrant) I'm not stupid, uneducated, ignorant, selfish and inward looking, hateful etc. I'm dark brown and have a mixed race family. An educated person would be able to understand that patriotism and nationalism and being open and welcoming are not mutually exclusive concepts. You can be both. It is ironic that some people online spitting venom, hate, insults etc are the open armed, tolerant remainers. There is nothing wrong with wanting to be a self governed sovereignty.

There is nothing wrong with observing that, economically, your country can only support and accept manageable levels of immigration. That doesn't make me racist or xenophobic. . No one in the leave campaign has said they want zero immigration. And these are not the only issues that informed my decision. People have answered your questions ad nauseum in many threads on mumsnet. You want to blame me for everything, you go ahead.

I did what I felt is right for me and my family. You did what you feel is right for yours. If your side had won, I'd be disappointed but I wouldn’t stalk you all over mumsnet, or metaphorically burn your house down. None of the past three general elections made me happy. It wasn’t right for me and my family. In fact I hated the results. I didn't go around demonising all tory supporters and I've lived with the consequences of tory government. In my family jobs were lost, savings were decimated. We had dark times. Even though people voted for them, it's not those people's fault what happened in my family. They voted their conscience. The government did the deed.

I'm a grown up (not old.. under 40) so I accept the choice of the democracy in which I live, I choose to live the best way I can in the circumstances and even find a way to be happy. I suggest you all stop frothing at the mouth and do the same. All this bitterness will infect your lives.

Mooingcow · 25/06/2016 13:29

Trini

What music have we got? I'm thinking a bit of soca, remind me of my youth and always good in the sun.

GertrudeBelle · 25/06/2016 13:37

I hope you haven't taken this massive gamble with the country's future in the expectation of reduced migration, Trini? The first thing the EU will demand in its trade negotiations is free movement. You'll also have seen Boris and Hannan "managing expectations" about what's achievable.

I also hope that you are not one of the immigrants who may now be asked to leave.

RortyCrankle · 25/06/2016 13:38

Applauds Trini a great post but can I just point out, no matter how many times we tell the doomer gloomers all the things in your post, they simply refuse to believe it. Even more, they don't want to believe it. Their only weapon is to throw insults at us in their frustration. I feel embarrassed for them actually that they have to stoop so low.

FrankUnderwoodsWife · 25/06/2016 13:39

No "immigrants" will be asked to leave, they may do so of their own accord, but we're not about to start throwing people out, for goodness sake.

GingerIvy · 25/06/2016 13:39

I didn't vote Leave, however, I feel that the vote has been done, and we now need to move ahead with it. I would recommend people that are panicking take a look at Martin Lewis's video on his moneysavingexpert site for good info without the political spin.

TriniRedVelvet · 25/06/2016 13:44

RortyCrankle Yeah, I'm done with it now. They pick up only on what they want to in my post and zoom in on that instead of reading and understanding all of it. I refuse to engage anymore.

Peppatina · 25/06/2016 13:44

TriniRedVelvet I think I love you. Can I tattoo that post on my forehead?

😄

surreygoldfish · 25/06/2016 13:44

In an economic downturn everyone suffers but potentially the poor and vulnerable more so. So lets just hope the gloomers are wrong and you're all right.......it's a very big gamble to take.

shazzarooney999 · 25/06/2016 13:45

Celebrating what exactly??? The end of the Nhs? people losing theyre jobs? it will be the end of benefits. People are already having disgusting comments thrown at them telling them to leave the country! The price of living will go up and we will have fresh air to live on. Celebrate all you want, but when your fed up and down in the dumps because of all the changes it will bring dont moan your arse off.

GingerIvy · 25/06/2016 13:45

I've come to the conclusion that engaging in the panic only enables it.
