Shit like this is just as bad as people saying everyone who voted Leave is a racist.

Scotland had their referendum, they voted to remain in the UK and as such face the same consequences as the rest of us. If anything, it highlights the pointlessness (is that a word?) of referendums - as touched upon earlier in the thread.

Personally, I am all for Scottish Independence and more local governance. They voted to remain though and shouldn't be able to pick and choose which bits they want. You take the good with the bad, however you view either.


Thats bollocks and you know it. They had an independence referendum on the basis that they would remain in the UK & the EU, they unanimously voted to remain and now they're being told they have to leave the EU? Nah they deserve another referendum after we pulled the rug from beneath them.

Heres another one for you, 4 of the top 5 losers in the FTSE 100 are housebuilding companies. But leaving means more, cheaper housing right?!

No longer a AAA economy, and already dropped below France when it comes to strongest economies, stronger in was all scaremongering though.

Farage already backtracking on the £350m a week he promised we would save and give to the NHS.

Lie #1 unravels just hours after the vote.


Dan Hannan has also come out and said leaving wont change immigration, only taken a few hours and the two major campaign points have gone up in smoke.

So much talk of people voting against the establishment, they have completely missed the point of this referendum. The irony is in voting against the status quo they'll end up giving Cameron and the Tory government more power than they've ever had, and not necessarily for the better.

I wouldn't mind the vote against the establishment if we hadn't only had a general election a bloody year ago.

Yeah that's what I was looking at.

The official reason for entering the wars were because Germany invaded Belgium and Poland. It's absolutely staggering that people seem to think otherwise. We fought alongside Stalin ffs not exactly a great friend to freedom or democracy.

I think it's because Americans say it. And at least it is half true when they say it. They fought a war which gave them more freedom, democracy and suffrage, ours was handed down over a period of around a hundred years for varying reasons. Thank Bobby Peel, Gladstone and the Marquess of Salisbury for the vote ffs.


The thing that really confuses those people is when you tell them the European Union was set up because we had 2 World Wars and was an attempt (and success) at stopping it happening again.

Amazing how many people genuinely seem to think that they're honouring Britain's Heroes of yesterday who died at the Somme etc.


My hot take from WW1 was poorer economic conditions + Nationalism + smaller, weaker and more isolated states = Jelly and ice cream for all.


Had a look at the IVotedLeave hashtag on Twitter and so many bloody idiots were saying that shit.

Ive not seen a single valid reason (that is actually true) for us leaving, the main argument is immigration but if we want to remain a part of the single market if we were to leave then we would still have to abide by free movement much like Norway, which is commonly used as an example of a country doing well while not being in the EU but our situation is so different from Norway its not even a fair comparison.

I'll be voting leave to honour our World War 1 dead - as that's what they would have wanted.


I literally just saw someone on FB post this photo

Trouble with being from an Army background, growing up with other Army kids is that alot of them are either thick as shit or see us leaving the EU as making Britain better.

*we are.

You think I don't know of the importance? It's just become sniping and baiting over the last few days/weeks due to current events and I'm sick of it. Added to the fact that the Leave campaign is just based on lies, it presents a one-sided argument which can only end in a Remain victory.


Pedant.

Its easy to say that and i hope your right but its not going to be a clear cut thing ultimately, just hope enough young voters come out because as it stands its looking like we will vote to leave, even if it is based on a lot of lies its only a lie if people seek out the truth and many people voting leave seem to just take what they read in the papers or in these leaflets as fact without actually finding out the truth.

Getting pretty tired of it dominating the news to be honest.

Glad when it will be all over. For the record, Remain will win, simply because people are too scared of change.


It should be dominating the news because its the most important vote were likely to see in our lifetime.

I hope people on here slating Croatian fans off actually have knowledge about why they are doing it, and aren't just disgracing them because of what they've seen on TV.


Having knowledge of them doing it doesn't excuse it.

Got to have a rant here. Is there anything worse than the people who never really watch football suddenly talking like they know everything as soon as a international tournament starts, was in the pub earlier and my brother was talking utter bollocks most of the night about the England game (which he didn't watch)

Credit to Hodgson as well, having the balls to make those 2 changes at half time, managers in the past would just have stuck with it till the 70th minute
