I don't know, I'm only seeing hate, intolerance and small mindedness from those that voted remain at the moment.... |

You at least Vegeuros had a sensible, well thought out reason to want to leave which I respect and am glad about. Most other people havent a clue what they were leaving. Why did the leave party lie about the NHS £350 mil money? Not even 24 hours after the vote and that fucking slimeball Farrage says that he never said anything about £350 mil for the NHS? What the fuck. People lied to and manipulated. Please explain that? That was a key voting point for many, many people and its all a lie? What the fuck. |

On that specific point though it wasn't a lie. Farage and the official leave campaign said that the money we saved would be available to spend on other areas, including the NHS/Defense/Schools/etc. The way this is being bandied about by the media makes it seem like the leave campaign lied and U-turned the second the referendum was over. The point is, Farage had no authority to make any kind of promise. He's not in government and UKIP aren't likely to form a government anytime soon. When asked if he could guarantee the aforementioned £350 million would go to the NHS he was quite correct in saying no. He has no authority to make that kind of promise. As far as I'm aware, Boris and the official leave campaign haven't U-turned on the claim. I believe IDS said that of the money saved, the lions share would be available for the NHS, but ultimately it's a decision for the government, which is factually correct. I agree that the whole debacle has been nothing but a shit show. The vagueness about statements made by both sides has lead to such confusion, confusion not helped by the media's tendency to misrepresent certain individuals. |

I honestly think David Cameron has done a bang up job dealing with this entire thing. He's stuck to his word and also sees how a second referendum would be silly as you can't keeping have a poll until your side wins. But yes, everybody involved in this has poorly managed it and the media has surely not helped at all. |

Seriously, a lot of people in Britain could really do with a hug right now. I'm enjoying this thread thus far as it's provided a comical outlet but that's about it. |

Most people have not made an informed decision. This is why I am so fucking mad. This mis-information and horseshit is fucking shit politics and scaremongering at least and treasonous at best. I am so fucking mad about this shit. Why it was only a 50% majority, for such an important thing? What the fuck. |
