They aren't jokes, its all true. All of it.

Haha!

2016 is an exciting time to be alive. UK drops out of European Union. Trump becomes president. A Finding Nemo sequel. Martians found on Mars. The Sun explodes. Exciting stuff!


also. LOL

There currently is a petition to redo the whole vote out of EU thing in Britain who already has 150.000 signatures. 100.000 are needed so it's discussed in Parliament. Maybe they'll actually stay [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Me at 3:30AM last night:



That is all.

Singing men, sheep, and... Yea that's it. At least you've got a dragon on your flag.

Good luck UK. At least one good thing seems to be coming out of this.

From what I understand, 40%~ of the youth didn't even vote and now they're upset about the result... (an argument for compulsory voting goes here).

The "Leave" team, led by Farage also had disingenuous campaigns and adverts going around, it was basically a scare campaign.

A lot of leavers now want to stay in and it's too late -.-

Hopefully there'll be some kind of intervention because it's a seriously bad situation

time to stock up on dr who,scrumpets ,english muffins and spellbooks from hogwarts.

There's always a pretty poor turnout for 18-24 year olds when it comes to voting, a lot of them just don't really care about what happens or don't feel like their vote won't make a difference. While compulsory voting might sound good a lot of people don't understand or just simply don't care about what they're voting for so just go with anything without much thought.

Brexit
 

Go Lily Allen!

Lol no.no.no. (part from youth part-if they didn't vote the vote wouldn't go to remain-wasn't like general elections)

This isn't the case at all I'm from England and voted, Yes many are angry at how it went but end of the day if they all wanted to stay then they should have registered and actually gone and voted many places of the voted had like say 50,000in that area who were actually registered to vote but 10,000 of them still didn't(the numbers example-don't go off too much)


Ermm the leave team wasn't led by Farage at all really he's just been a big voice in it due to UKIP rise last elections (primarily like an EDL/Britain first but less racist/fked up) Borris Johnson was main dude to lead this if it wasn't for him getting involved/leading leave campaign then I'm sure the result would have been different.(as media would fk farage over some racial remarks for sure-probably why he didn't do last press conference before voting commenced)


Most of my friends wanted to remain, most my co-workers etc wanted to leave and all who voted leave are happy about it literally heard 'get in!' 'taking our country back' etc in work today ahahah


This really is a big thing can affect alot of countries; especially ones in Europe now hence why they are all freaking out.

So I guess after centuries of seeing your colonies declare independence you guys needed to try it out too.

"Surveillance" while Britain has cctv on every street with thousands of cameras in London. We barely have any cctv in Germany xD

"white people" says the country that wants to split from immigration and stay white

"Globalism" I enjoy going to Greece without being controlled. Having friends all over Europe. Not needing a visa anywhere and have consumer rights everywhere. I pay the same amount of money if I phone in Germany as I pay in Lithuania or Portugal.

"Allahu not even gonna spell that" yes every Muslim war refugee is obviously trying to bomb us duuuuh, that's why lest people get killed in terrorist attack in Germany then in the states.

"Subversion" Europe one of the biggest trading zones in the world. With its own currency that starts dictating markers like dollar, yen and yuan

"six million" six million what?

"****s" I think he ran out of bad thinks

---
"loyalty" obviously not, else they would have stayed

"tradition" yes let the old 60+ rule your country and decide what's best for the next 100 years. Not like they would be alive then

"heritage" I've been to cultural sights all across Europe. I've seen so many old buildings and ruins. But hey, I guess you could call stuff like Stonehenge cultural heritage. You just have to visit it 200 times in your live since you clearly never wanted to see the cultural heritage ALL of Europe has to offer

"Dominion" instead of being part of ruling a whole continent, yes let's rule that tiny island. Oh and the United Kingdom is also about to break apart from Scotland, Northern Ireland and Gibraltar. Super nice dominion

"self-determination" suicide also takes a lot of self determination. Yet it's a horrible thing to do

"autonomy" finally no laws from Brussels to bow down to. F*ck those rights giving people back money when the train is running super late. Who cares about workers safety rights. Or environmental rights. Finally this generation can fully ruin the world by letting the global warming act as it pleases.

Yes generation 1990-today. You were f**ked today by your own country

Ahh I thought Farage was the guy behind it, my mistake.

I think that it'll be a damaging result and hopefully the UK (or what remains of it) will re-join the EU again one day

So many people act as if people over the age of 60 don't want what's best for their country. They've been living there way longer than you. Maybe you should give them more credit for the decisions they make. Even if they won't continue to live for as long as you does that mean the rest of their lives should be controlled by the younger generation?

Is your understanding of globalism really limited to passports and phones? I give Britain props for not allowing immigration policies to be forced down their throat.

A big bunch of the old generation are against things like cellphones and how no clue what Internet even is. Both generation have their flaws. Yet a lot of the old people want to go back to the "good old time" which obviously isn't happening since progress is happening


When the immigration laws were made, Britain agreed to them. No just one country, all of them did. Now we have a war going on in Syria and other places, also because of the United states and great Britain. So they also have to stand to the results.

The phones and passports was an example. Obviously I'm not able to portray every good thing globalism brings

i dont think you've been to london, have you?

"Most multi - cultural city in the world!"

I dislike how folks are reacting. "I DONT AGREE WITH BREXIT, IT MUSTB WRONG, I DEMAND RECOUNT!!!!" is such an immature approach and one that many liberals seem to take nowadays. As if no one in the history of democracy hasn't had it their way. Entitled brats tbh, can't wait to see the reaction from the Bernie crowd. They already whine and cry everytime he gets edged out in a state.

This is coming from someone who's closest to a social democrat.

No, but I know that London has probably more than anywhere else been transformed due to immigration policies encouraged by the EU. The London majority voted to remain, but I'm sure the Islamification of the UK was one of the driving points that helped Brexit win.

Islamification. Paaaaah racist. A few immigrants won't kill your precious Christianity. Disgusting this racism.

Also on other news. Over 1 million people have signed the petition to revote. And a lot of people have noticed they were lied to. Most common hash tag

#Bregret

Yeah, Islam isn't a race and even if it was that still isn't "racism."

And how many of those signees do you think voted to remain in the first place? They lost fair and square, I think it's stupid that a second referendum is even an actual possibility.

I don't know a ton about this, and I don't plan on it since it's complicated as hell. From what I understand, though, leaving is a good idea. It's risky for sure, but the outcome shouldn't be that bad. From what I understand, the EU allowed travel from all countries within the EU without a passport or registration to that country. Also the currency was another issue, since there were other countries bringing down the value of the Euro. That to me seems like the main reason to leave - to let the UK stand on their own and not be brought down financially by other countries.

That's not correct at all. The free travel is a different treaty. And the United Kingdom never joined it.

Also the United Kingdom never accepted the European

He doesn't even live there. Not sure why you're calling him a racist for saying why he believes people in the UK voted to leave. If anything, the people in the UK would be the racists - based on your logic anyways. Not to mention as Thallen said, religion isn't a race. Plus he never said a thing about him being a Christian. Unless you personally know he is, you're making assumptions simply because he mentioned Islam. What's disgusting is when people try to claim racism on any statement, because it undermines situations where racism is really involved.

Theres gonna be a big crisis in England soon.

I also think it's funny that the stock markets in the US at least (and I assume pretty much everywhere else) plunged. The changes will take years until they're finalized. There's no reason for the stocks to be affected right now. But that's wall street for ya.

I don't care where he lives or who he is. And personally I don't care if religion is defined as a race or not. Cause the definition of race is different in every language.

On the other hand a lot of Christians go on the streets to protest against the islamification. I don't see those protest in Asia happening (probably also because they barely have any Muslim refugees)

I heard a lot of people speaking up that they threaten the end of Christianity cause of the Muslim people, which is so not true. He might not be Christian but he is western. And the western countries are mostly connected to the Christian culture

With the vote as close as it was the UK doesn't normally go through with things unless it's 60-40, so I wouldn't be too surprised if there was a second referendum

Nice. You express your disgust with discrimination with stereotypes and assumptions. Isn't that what discriminatory people do? Stereotype... and make assumptions about others? Who cares what other people do. You called Thallen out for discriminating against the Islamic religion. And no. Race is the same thing everywhere. Other countries may have different categorizing of race, but race and religion are 2 different things, no matter where in the world you are. Someone who believes race and religion are the same thing is not someone I care to argue with. So I'll leave your stereotyping and nonsense to yourself.

"Islamification" happens everywhere and it's nothing to be afraid of; it's just a new culture integrating with western society. It's only an issue if you're a redneck or, as some alarmists would have you believe, extremists set up "sharia neighborhoods" in your area, which is against the law to do anyway lol.

The UK has a lot of immigrants yes, but the people who say that someone is racist for using the border as an excuse to leave probably doesn't understand that a lot of the immigrants that come to the UK come legally through proper channels (if they're overseas immigrants), or are just economic immigrants taking advantage of the EU's free movement. Some people leave their relatively safe, but terribly terribly poor, countries to go the UK and that's what the brexit people played on in their campaign strategies (well, from the ads I've seen on the net).

These local (to Europe) economic immigrants will be able to settle in remaining EU countries so I wouldn't feel too sorry for them, they'll still end up in a better position than back in their home nations.

But yeah, everyone's markets are crumbling. GG UK.

Behave your security can't even handle few hooligans from accrington never mind terrorists.

Not much will actually change until we get ball rolling around October(Next election-because David Cameron gone now)/November but even then when UK sort out with eu people(where we won't be paying out 100's of millions for these eu countries) it will take us least 2years before we are out of eu completely by that time EU will be crumbling if not gone, they've relied on UK for to long and Germany(next big supporter for eu countries) Won't be able to do that unless they want to crumble n'all.. Pretty sure there will be other countries now wanting out of eu before it all goes wrong for them and they have to go back to there old cash to have chance of rebuilding.

How the hell is that fair?

Older people have as much right to vote as those ******ed millennials.

You might as well put down everyone over the age pf 60 just so they don't interfere with your political agenda.

That isn't freedom, that is borderline fascism.

Stop buying into the stereotype that all old folks want is to go back to the good ol' days.

Maybe they just want better futures for their newer generations, every think about that?

I swear, liberal SJWs are being especially cancerous about this topic since all they seem to care about is how many white people voted or whatnot.

You know Britain is predominately a white country, so why the actual **** is this such an issue?

Pull that stick out your arse and stop overeating. IMO, the pound fell so much because nobody really expected this would happen and people panicked causing the economy to drop.

Jesus, 60/40? I'd obviously understand if it was within the margin of error, but 60/40 seems very strict.

Well, it's a matter of popular vote. To be perfectly blunt, prejudice is allowed to effect the way someone votes. Not to mention, I think it's fair game for any Briton to say, "Islam is behind the problems in the Middle East, so I don't want it to be such a large presence around me." Apparently, Londoners didn't think that way though and I think they're the most affected by it.

I'm not saying religion is a race. But I said it was racist. You want me to call it anti-religionistic? There you go. Or anti Christian. What ever. It's not what this thread is about

Also race isn't the same thing everywhere. Our definition of race is what we project on the world. There are tribes that see religion as a thing they were born with. Etc, etc. So in the American and western view race isn't religion. But to give you another example. Germans don't call black people a different race then white people. Just FYI

Doubt there will be a second referendum, we've made our decision.Although I do agree it should have been a certain majority/percentage but that wasn't the case for this (even if the petition gets to point where it has to be spoke about in parliament again aha)

And you have black terrorist in Kongo and whereelse in Africa. Yet you live around them too. Or fellow Americans who go crazy and do shootings. Yet you live around them too. But if they are Muslim, you don't want them around you



It already got to that point. Yesterday it had 150.000 out of the 100.000 needed signature and by now the petition have over 1 million signatures

I don't know why you're using these examples though. I've never suggested it has anything to do with terrorism or Muslims being bad people. I'm sure there are many prideful Brits out there who feel as if the large influx of Muslim immigrants is causing a major change that they don't want or appreciate, and if that's their opinion then it's fair.

Ask Xenthic about it, he's from the UK and far more passionate and opinionated about it than me. He might go as far as to tell you that he believes Muslim immigrants are attempting to overpopulate and control elections. My point is that Brits, or anyone, aren't bigots, racists, or bad people if they ever want to keep immigration levels of a certain people at a particular level to preserve their nation as what it is.

This article should help you.

A revote probably shouldn't happen, because it makes no sense. I'm sure almost everyone who signed the petition for a revote was someone who voted to remain. If people who didn't vote are complaining, then that's their own fault.

A western made site. Again ignoring other countries opinion about what's race and what's something else. Stop arguing about it

You're the one arguing about facts, lol. Americans may view Taco Bell as authentic mexican, but it doesn't mean it's true. ;) Definitions are definitions. Germany would view people by ethnicity then, not race. Race is the same thing everywhere. You can keep being wrong if you wish, it's your choice.

People get fined for not voting in Australia- at the very least it's an idiot tax :) imagine the money the government can make

Wow. That needs to be implemented in America.

Actually, after I thought about it for 5 seconds, I realized there's enough idiots out there that already vote. We don't need to force more idiots to cluelessly vote for the candidate with the most signs in yards, or with the best commercials.

Plus, the last thing the American gov. needs is more money from tax-payers. They already waste our money. Definitely don't need to give them more.

You take the good with the bad.
Stupid idiots voting got us this gem of a Prime Minister

Yes. That is an onion.

That problem predates the EU. No doubt EU policies didn't help, but it's mostly Central + North Europe that's having that problem due to these policies.

You're quite the delusional ****, aren'tcha?

I just respect what other countries think about certain things. And I'm not getting rude about opinions unlike you ;)

Do you?
