What a terrible, terrible result. Potentially the most disastrous protest vote in history. There's absolutely nothing "United" about this Kingdom.
Cliffs on why they want out?
If UK + Germany leave + Trump gets in the office, everyone better cash the fuck out of everything and run to the hills for a good 2-3 yrs.Quote:

traders looking to take off some hedges here fearing that the selloff may now have been over done... Can't make this shit up.
What's LOL is one trader is still screaming that it's not done yet as the votes still to come in are very large areas... as expected the poor fella had 0 hedges and his best year has not turned into a year expected from a 3rd/1st yr assoc :D. Hopefully he's right and he can make some of that back
Except for London, this pic shows a parallel with historical sentiments re the Scottish versus English.
Because for centuries starting with the Hundred Year Wars period, the Scottish allied with powers on the continent against the English (usually with fellow Catholic France, but also with Catholic Spain). I'm wondering whether that history, possibly affecting Scottish sentiment, is a factor for the them to favor staying. And will they move to separate from the rest of the UK with the latter Brexiting?
Watch the most recent John Oliver (it's 14min long) he surprisingly explains it well and while he exaggerates a lot of stuff, it's actually pretty good.Quote:

The ripple effect though is what I am worried about besides the haircut tomorrow in the markets. They should close the markets tomorrow and let the central bankers throw candy to calm the markets.
That's cool.Quote:

The EU has an open borders policy. There is nothing to stop anyone from the 28 EU countries from turning up in the UK. There is a perception that these immigrants take jobs from British people, and squeeze them out of getting their kids into local schools, add to hospital waiting lists etc.
There is a further concern that the EU will keep getting bigger, and in a few years anyone from fuckknowswhereistan can rock up on top of the current 28 there is now.
The UK ships £350m a week to the EU, and we don't get much of it back.
More and more law is being controlled by Brussels (the EU parliament). Not all of it is terrible, but they haven't helped themselves by introducing some daft stuff over the years.
More and more regulation is coming out of Brussels. It's never ending and a lot of it is bollocks.
People want to poke the politicians in the eye.
Oh, and a lot of people are stupid. And a bit xenophobic.
Just wait til MondayQuote:

Well this is fooked. Guess it's time to load up on dogecoin and ammunition. Also lol trump's twitter is babbling about golf courses and and giving his son a pat on the back.
