I wonder if Scotland will rebel. According to this http://www.bbc.com/news/politics/eu_referendum/results all of Scotland is pro-EU.
Since Brits like independence so much I guess they won't mind if Scotland leaves asap.

Funnily enough Scotland had the chance to leave not so long ago and decided not to.
See with uncontrolled immigration being a key issue in deciding this referendum, Scotland barely suffer from that at all and get the same EU benefits as England. Without hundreds of thousands of unskilled migrants flooding their unskilled labour job market. Because they arrive in England and generally stay there.

Dismissing the legitimate concerns of millions of people and just calling them racist xenophobes did not work.
Farage has been warning the politicians for two decades telling them that a huge divide will form and no one listened. Some politicians on the right and the left warned that this would happen and no one listened. Countless people have told the EU that they have to reform and become democratically accountable but the EU didn't listen. Thousands have asked them to become transparent about their accounting and they did not listen. Thousands told them to put some limitation on the free movement of people and they did not listen. Thousands have told them to respect the greek people and they did not listen. Thousands have told them not to add very weak economies into the Union and they did not listen.
Now they have to deal with this ugly break up after people have had enough.

Don't get used to it
Everybody was betting on a reasonably comfortable 'Remain' win and then it went tits up very quickly as soon as Sunderland strongly voted leave and Newcastle who were supposed to strongly favour remain barely did. It was all downhill after that.
The market is volatile, a lot of knee jerk reactions happening.
But yeah football could actually be impacted a lot in the future. Won't be easy for England to buy Foreign talent and thankfully the talent they have is pure shit so nobody cares.

England. They sure need the EU much more than vice versa. Good luck to the smart 48%.
Cameron has resigned and will be gone by October. Which is partly good news but other than that. We're screwed.

So basically almost everyone over 50 went for exit whilst the younger generation and working class wanted to stay in. Turnout for votes should have been higher. Im actually saddened because its gonna be a turmoil before were back up and running and overall it wasnt worth the effort. The irony is EU i feel is gonna break is as well, theres already talks of netherlands pulling out as well as others. So this isnt a loss for britain but also europeans, believe me it affects us all.
Kinda funny because the UK is the biggest importer of German cars by volume.
I suppose the decision has been made now, for better or worse, no one really knows at this stage. Obviously there will be a short term hit, the rest is educated guesswork.
I really do hate Nigel Farage though. Just another pompous prick.
David Cameron is stepping down in October...
