So "get the hell out" and start paying more for your BMW spares and Bikes?
There would appear to be a surfeit of prolixity and sesquipedalian content today please do not use a big word when a singularly un-loquacious and diminutive linguistic expression will satisfactorily accomplish the contemporary necessity

We are definitely out. Now is a chance to kick the system in the ass it needs it. Big Government does not work. Politicians can not be trusted. I always vote out whoever is in. I am a rebel at heart and know the cxnts in Whitehall and Parliament always deceive and cover up. Bxstxrds :lol: :wink:

Well Steve, seems you got what you wanted and it was a lot closer than your poll suggested.
And Paul got what he wanted too - Cameron's resignation.

To be honest I'm really disappointed that Cameron's resigned.

Ditto, and I'm not sure who might be up to take over - can Boris raise his game far enough? But Cameron had no choice but to support Remain and therefore had to give it his best shot. I'd love to see some proper discussion over how the EU (which absolutely needs a good sorting out) can close the 5% gap between p1ssed off customers and happy ones, but I have a feeling that it's not going to be like that...

In the fullness of time I can see the UK breaking up if N Sturgeon gets her way and then N Ireland follows suit.
That really will be a sad day.

Still Britain was Great once , hopefully it can be again and not just the 51st state of the USA as we have been since 1945.

Wonder what the union flag will look like with just the English and Welsh colours?
