Seriously? majority of people who voted for leave wanted control of our borders, we brought into your story of an Australian style point system now it seems there's still going be freedom of labour movement which is basically the same thing expect they get less legal rights.

I didn't just vote leave for immigration but yes it was a big reason and if I known this, if remain had a better hammered this home I bet MANY leave voters would not have voted the way they did. If anything if this happens, many leave voters will join the remain voters in rage at the lies we been fed. (NHS, Immigration)

I have been a vocal leave supporter on here but now I am feeling pretty scared about what I have voted for. I blame the remain campaign for having an totally shit and ineffective campaign and Cameron should never have been the leader of the remain camp, as majority of people despise him and don't take any notice of what he says.

Happyandsingle, can you tell us what is so nasty and hateful about pointing out facts? Is it making you feel uncomfortable?

Sooo
old people shouldn't vote
people without degrees shouldn't vote
People with low levels of immigrants in their county shouldn't vote
Do you realise how fascist this sounds?

I didn't vore tory or SNP but don't go around saying "people who vote SNP and Tory shouldn't vote" because my side didn't win.
I voted Remain but accdept we lost and now I have to wait and see what happens not have a tantrum. I got pissed off with the same thing from yes voters in the Scottish referendum.
If you believe in democracy then letting people with different opinion to you and levels of education to you have an equal vote is part of it.

SukeyTakeItOffAgain · 25/06/2016 19:15

I'm totally fucked off with all you Brexiters. Thick as pig shit and you deserve everything you get

This.

Remember Churchill? The biggest argument against democracy is a five minute chat with your average voter.

midsomermurderess · 25/06/2016 19:15

You could have done some fact-checking yourself. You chose to believe what you wanted to hear. With the right to vote comes the responsibly to inform yourself before you use it. And how could you NOT have know this? How? The EEA is hardly the Masons.

Homemama · 25/06/2016 19:15

Well, Hassled, you're a better woman than me!
When South Wales and parts of Cornwall such as Redruth plunge back to the depth of deprivation they were in during the 80s and early 90s, I for one will have zero sympathy.

I am in my late 40s and I've voted labour my whole life. I came to the realisation yesterday that I will never vote labour again.

I'm ashamed to admit that this regressive vote has made me less empathetic and less compassionate. The poor and deprived will only become more poor and deprived and all I can think is that they've brought this on themselves. I'm saddened and shocked that I feel this way. I feel like the seismic shift in the country has led to a seismic shift in me too. Sad

happyandsingle · 25/06/2016 19:15

And because I am speaking out against the vast majority of people on here should I not be allowed to post?

Pjsofpurple · 25/06/2016 19:15

TheVermiciousKnid Yes, a very crap feeling.

The future looks scary because I am not sure our collective interests will be very high on the agenda during exit negotiations, we don't really have a voice. Worse of all, the anti-EU-migrant feelings might get more bitter as people start to realise the reality of Brexit.

happyandsingle · 25/06/2016 19:19

Judy what is nasty is the constant abuse aimed at leave voters when getting your points across. You have to add at least one derogatory sentence or word in every statement you make.

BrexitentialCrisis · 25/06/2016 19:21

See this makes me fucking angry. If you had bothered to engage with the Remain campaign instead of dismissing it as project fear, you would have understood, like the rest of us, that continued freedom of labour would be the case. But no- you chose to side with a shambles of jizztrumpets like Boris fucking Johnson and ignore the facts. Don't come on here complaining you have been duped, you've just been stupid.

StrictlyMumDancing · 25/06/2016 19:21

Actually happy I'm a remainer but I won't stand for any bullshit about supposed IQ levels and eligibility to vote. So no, all remainers aren't nasty arseholes and all leavers aren't uneducated/racist/poor/any combination of the above. To start banding people like that is what feeds this division, and this is coming from someone angry at being told in the street yesterday she 'wasn't British enough' and was a 'benefit sponger' based solely on her looks.

StrictlyMumDancing · 25/06/2016 19:22

I'm totally fucked off with all you Brexiters. Thick as pig shit and you deserve everything you get

and whilst I'm here - that bullshit banding feeds it too.

AdultingIsNotWhatIExpected · 25/06/2016 19:24

"immigration is impacting people's lives though"
"but some of the strongest OUT areas have the lower levels of immigrants, and IN areas are the ones with the most, look! here's a demographic"
"so now you're saying people who don't live in multicultural areas shouldn't vote"
Hmm

StarryIllusion · 25/06/2016 19:24

Did anyone ever seriously expect a politician not to lie? They all lie, the giveaway is when they open their mouths.

LassWiTheDelicateAir · 25/06/2016 19:26

Your posts are ridiculous happy The OP posted an opening post which was either highly provocative or displayed a breath taking lack of comprehension. If the latter then how she can seriously expect to be taken seriously is beyond me. Plenty of other people knew brexit would not lead to border controls. Why is she ranting at remain, who always said that, rather than leave who lied to her?

Sorry strictly think I aimed my comment wrongly at you!

GrumpyOldBag · 25/06/2016 19:29

Really OP?

I listened to the debates, read the newspapers and was well aware that there would probably still be free labour movement with Brexit (although for me that's not one of the key issues).

I voted Remain (for a whole host of other reasons).

happyandsingle · 25/06/2016 19:29

Did I say I agree with the op? Posting this was stupid it was just going to start the hate campaign again.

Corcory · 25/06/2016 19:33

But we don't need a trade agreement to trade with the EU so can control immigration if we want to. A 2.5% tariff on the cost of anything we buy from them with the devaluation on the £ means things will actually be cheaper.

I am also beyond angry about what Brexit voters have done to our country through complete stupidity and ignorance.
I just wish there was some way the decision can be undone. Clutching at very tiny straws here but I would do ANYTHING to get us back in and save us from years of economic, political and social misery.
So are there any legal people out there who know if it can be reversed on the basis that the Leave campaign was conducted on lies ?

LondonKiwiMummy · 25/06/2016 19:34

AlcoChocs · 25/06/2016 19:35

I think Boris may have a cunning plan to keep us in the EU.

He'll negotiate and get concessions then present them to us so we'll all think we've got what we want and agree to stay.
As this Financial Times article of 2 weeks ago (pre-referendum) says
The UK Government may seek to put off the Article 50 notification.
Yesterday Boris made a point of saying that they could leave it for some time before notifying Article 50. He's also said, in the past, that having a referendum, and presumably a leave vote, would be a good way of getting more concessions from the EU.
You never know, it could happen Shock
