The British simply said to Europe, we either beat your A$$ or saved your A$$ for centuries and now you are telling us what to do. I don't think so.

It was just reported that Soros was heavily shorting the Pound.
I prefer wood to plastic, leather to nylon, waxed cotton to Gore-Tex, and split bamboo to graphite.

" The revolt against elites is real in the UK and America and it's only getting started. Maybe there will always be an England." Citizens of truly democratic countries don't want unlimited immigration into their countries by people who couldn't be less interested in democracy. They also don't want to be governed by the rules and regulations of faceless bureaucrats whose not-so-hidden goals are power and riches for themselves and their friends Many, probably most, Americans feel exactly the same as their brothers and sisters across the pond. They despise the same elites and want to save their country. That most elite of presidents, Barack Obama, who opened his morally narcissistic mouth supporting the Remain side and warning the British people, as he is wont to do, that there would be "consequences" if they voted to leave the EU, is in no position to do anything, even if he wanted to. And he doesn't.Long live the Anglosphere. Remember the Magna Carta and all that. This is a day truly to celebrate, even if stock markets are crashing around the world. They'll come back. Look on it as a buying opportunity. A bubble has broken, but it isn't a stock bubble. It's a human bubble consisting of elites who seek to govern in a manner not all that distant from Comrade Lenin, just hiding under a phony mask of bureaucratic democracy. They've taken a big body blow from the citizens of England. Churchill would be proud. Time for America to follow suit.https://pjmedia.com/diaryofamadvoter/2016/06/23/brexit-vote-has-huge-ramifications-for-us-politics/

Time for America? Cameron gambled to solve a split in the Conservative party and now has broken his country asunder and will pay for it big-time. Sound familiar? America's divided conservative party produced Trump. Churchill proud? UK will be lucky to hold England and Wales, Irish and Scots will be out of it. Europe's financial centre of London will gravitate to Frankfurt. The toffs always win, and the only guy rubbing his hands is Putin.

....Europe's financial centre of London will gravitate to Frankfurt.... Isn't that going to be something. Watching one country try to bail out the entire eu off the profits from selling high end cars to elites in failed states. The xenophobic rhetoric was rivaled only by the jv team, and still they 'won'. Maybe the only coalition that can be built is the turn and run movement any time the US pres take a 'tough' policy position.

Poor King Brown. Majority rule votes are a good thing to him when anti-gun Liberal Socialists like his hero Barack Obama win. But Majority rule votes are apparently a bad thing when Obama gets embarrassed and the British people decide that stronger EU economies bailing out failed Socialist economies like Greece isn't their cup o' tea! Same goes for seeing the real problems with open borders and stupid trade deals that screwed their citizens. Sounds a bit familiar. The EU needed Great Britain much more than Great Britain needed the EU. Britain will be fine, and Kingsley Lenin Brown, the Blue Nose Pinnochio, is wrong again. Happy Independence Day Brits! Oh yes, here's a link to LyingCrookedHillary.com https://www.lyingcrookedhillary.com/lie/...p;utm_content=AWarning: Do not click on this link if your stomach can't handle looking at this anti-gun hag without her Botox and Bondo!
A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

Mr Cameron has resigned; he'll stay in post until a new Prime Minister is selected by the Conservatives, but will be gone before the Tory party conference in convenes in October.
The ramifications both political and financial are all unknowns at this point, although the anti-EU sentiments with the other EU countries are making themselves felt. Elements in the Dutch parliament have already called for a referendum in Holland.
This vote does not IMO reflect any rise in conservatism; it was the Labour party heartlands that brought in the biggest "Leave" numbers.
The immigration thing has been vastly overplayed; there are 400,000 Asian Muslims in Birmingham and not one of them will go back home because of this result.
As regards the EU citizens coming here to work, London is already the seventh largest French city. I expect a lot will be going home as London loses it's position as a world financial centre. Invest in Frankfurt!
I voted to remain, but we've got what we've got, and as the old curse has it "May you live in interesting times."

I fear that you have failed to grasp the depth of feeling regarding the immigration issue,,just like the politicians did ! The sheer uncontrolled volume of Eastern Europeans and others is what is swamping our education and health systems and the people have said it must stop. As for the Muslims,,once the matter of the European Human Rights courts are addressed and a British Bill of Rights contrived then we will no longer have to tolerate the excesses of behaviour we currently do.
As our language becomes impoverished,,our thinking shrinks to fit.

I think the Brexit is only the beginning, the Netherlands also are ready to leave the EU. In Italy in Roma and Torino are elected 2 new mayor and both are against the EU. Cheers, Marc.
