OMG it's really happening (I think)

[CurlieWhirlie]

looks like we really are leaving:

How do we feel about this, scared, nervous, excited?

Have you been under a stone all day, op?!

Excuse me??

Check the active threads. There's about a million.

Yep the proletariat have won and we are leaving, big rock you have been under curlie
Why did so many people think this was a joke vote / practice run?

Have you really just found out? If so (maybe you were on a flight or something?), my answer is that im worried. I just wonder what the future holds for Europe as it seems to be fracturing all over the place and people are really divided. I'm worried that Europe may go to war with itself, literally or metaphorically.

No I haven't just found out, I stayed up last night to watch the results come in. I didn't think the EU leaders would accept the UK leaving, that is what I am trying to say. I thought they would try to persuade us to stay in the EU.

Really Curlie??? Really?

Curlie - that doesnt make any sense!

Yes really. I didn't think they would want us to leave.

For fucks sake this is not some teenage lovers tiff. This is big grown up stuff, we said we are leaving. We are divorcing the EU end of.
Grow up

I don't think it is necessary to be so rude. This is politics at the end of the day and how do we know what to believe?

Don't worry OP I had hoped that they may be able to over ride or some such as I heard that this was just an opinion poll really and the House of Lords could over rule it?! Don't get me wrong I agree with democracy but this is a terrible horrifying decision that has been made by the lied to masses, against the wish of almost all experts and the voted politicians amongst all parties.

OK, I think I don't want to be insulted so I will end it there. Thank you.

I can barely believe what I am reading here.
There was a fucking REFERENDUM and you thought that the result that people campaigned for for YEARS would somehow magically not happen?!

It's intolerable. We're utterly fucked!
