I voted out.

I have been villified by the Remainers. Supposedly I am old, uneducated, racially discriminatory, Northern, parochial, insular, etc. I knew there would be financial repercussions. I knew this was asking for an economic and possibly a political cartharsis. This was a vote against the political elite and globalisation. I voted with the "great unwashed" that feel neglected and ignored. The poor are getting poorer and the rich are getting richer while the shrinking middle class pays the bill.

The UK youth are generally naive and easily persuaded. They talk about opportunities afforded by the EU without recognizing where the money is coming from. I'm not sure where they think they're moving to in the EU as unemployment is rampant and most have limited language and job skills. None-the-less they're angry and protesting in London today. I guess they must have time on their hands(?).

The political elite in the UK are in turmoil. The Conservatives need to replace the Prime Minister who resigned and Labour, fearing a snap election, are trying to oust their leader who refuses to resign. The Labour party could split. Some have suggested the referendum results might be ignored by Parliament or a deal negotiated with the EU that would maintain the status quo. If that happens I fear there will be civil disorder in many parts of this country.

The EU is desperate to make an example out of the UK for fear other nation states are considering leaving as well. The UK is a net contributor to the EU and has run a trade deficit with same for as long as I can remember. If they kneecap Britain they could easily cripple Europe.

This could get interesting.
