I completely expected a rigged vote to stay in or for the government to completely ignore our votes if it resulted in leave. Turns out I was wrong

It's a shame really, another london riot would've been nice. I could do with a new flat screen

We're the 5th biggest economy in the world but only a tenth of the size of the United States making us relatively small.

France just became the 5th biggest. Great Britain is now only the sixth. Next thing you know we will have to call it G6 cause Russia ends up being a he seventh xD

And that's before we've even left yet, it's going to get much worse when we're actually out and we're most likely going to end up in another recession.

Economists said it was going to happen yet more half the population still voted no, it completely boggles me as to why.

More polls and Data coming up. This is a really impressive one.

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]

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

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.
