I need a drink or two. Or twelve. I can feel my money slipping away.

Well, I've got eight hours before I'm back at work, how much rum do we think I can drink before it's too much to sober up from?

Really Britain. If you wanted to leave, you could have done it in a less stupid way.

^ This, seriously.

I agree. Our current government seems to have unnerving knack of, when presented with several options, picking the worst one. Even when there are no good options they don't merely settle for bad when terrible could do. They also, like many governments, throw over long-term concerns and foreign relations to improve their domestic standing slightly.

I think your behaviour is amusing. The rest is something to think about tomorrow when I am not half pissed and drunk on unexpected success.

I'm sure you'll enjoy Sturgeon going for independence vote 2.0. No last minute promises now. Scotland will never buy it this time.

It is quite improbable for Scotland to leave the UK because Scotland currently faces a huge budget deficit that is three times the deficit faced by the UK as a whole, and it will have to rely on Westminster to solve their budgetary problems. And also, Scotaldn would most likely wish to continue using the pound even after they leave, but if they want to join the EU, the EU might not agree on them using the pound, and that may cause Scotland's proposals to be rejected, thus in logical sense, Scotland would be in a bad position if they left the EU now.

I most certainly hope so.

Austria, the Netherlands, France, Sweden, Italy. It is my sincere hope that these nations will throw off the EU.

I did not literally mean that Ostro has no right to do so. He does have that right, but personally find talk of Brexit as the UK's "independence day" to be rather bewildering and irritating, as someone whose country actually has a well-earned independence day, in honour of the day when we declared ourselves a sovereign republic, free from our colonial overlords. Not in honour of the day when we refused to join the ALCA.

That is very demeaning to the British people who sincerely feel they are on the verge of winning a hard-fought independence from the tyranny of Brussels.

You're asking people to not do what's been done to them for years.
Now you realize how it's feels.

ofcourse they're going to laugh at you, mock you, and pretend nothing is wrong and you're just whining. Why wouldn't they? For once, their policy that you are scared of is getting forced on you.

Yeah, it should recover once the hysteria is over.

No last minute promises from this Englishman. I'm pissed enough at my home country to queue up with the Scots and have a Leave 2.0 vote.

God bless and guide the UK after this referendum, as it will more than likely be a tough rode ahead...Still to believe they actually did it is amazing to see...

They don't know what a fight for independence is.
