What an absolute joke. I'm now of the opinion that 100% democracy is not a good thing. There were so many people that had no real idea what they were voting for and a referendum should never have been called.
It's gonna solve absolutely nothing and the same people that voted to leave will be whining in a few years when things get even worse for them.
There's only one man to blame, Cameron, He thought it was a vote winner to get him back into Downing St, He never thought for one minute we would have the guts to leave.

He certainly played his cards wrong. He keeps believing the polls and reacting to imaginary adversaries. He out of the blue announced he would not stand a third time because he didn't think he'd get a majority. He was obsessed with the UKIP share of the vote and did everything to try and claw it down, even though our voting system makes it impossible to win more than a handful of seats, and the worse case scenario was the Unionists as collation partners. Now he's ended up resigning, he could have had three terms they were there for the taking if he'd just believed in himself.

We are out--it,s no good going on why we should have voted remain. We all had our chance to vote and Brexit won---thats it. I am just surprised that Cameron jacked in so quickly. It must have been a personal thing. Some people just can,t stand to get beaten. That she devil of the 3 witches who gave Boris a tough time still wont accept she has lost.

it's lost 7.5% in an hour, we're likely to go into recession which means share prices will remain depressed in the short/medium term and even the brexit ecoonomists said it might well take 5-10 years for the economy to recover to its state pre referendum
I moved all the pension funds I have control of out of UK and European equities and bought large amounts of gold and silver ETFs in my SIPP. I only lost about 1% overall, I also made £400 betting on Leave, so my losses were not that great - so far. I'll definitely be buying more gold and silver over the next few months, both ETFs and mining companies, not just because of Brexit but also in case another global recession comes along.

I emptied my pension fund a while back, Cashed all my premium bonds and took out all my savings, After purchasing a Town away shirt I put the other £40 in my granddaughters piggy bank
