UK to start Brexit process before March 2017.

[T-hug]

I personally think leaving the EU is a mistake, and I really don't like that a 4~5% difference in votes should be allowed to constitute a "win" for Brexit. I think it should've shown that the country is perfectly divided in opinions and called for a second vote.

It's not perfectly divided though is it, it's not 50/50. That 5% is about a 3million people. You can't ignore the majority or there is no democracy.

I would be more accepting if it were 40-60, rather than ~48-52. It's just too close for my liking. But, as I said, no choice but to live with it.

3 Million people is ALOT, you cannot just sweep that many peoples votes under the rug and say it should be equally divided.

The 52/48 split is a small gap and is strongly regional, IMO a 'soft' brexit' (i.e. remaining in the single market) is the way forward for compromise for both camps. That way, you can still renegotiate without burning the literal bridges.

We wont be diluting the brexit scenario to lesson the butt hurt for the remain voters, ROCK HARD BREXIT all the way.

16 Million people is ALOT, you cannot just sweep that many peoples votes under the rug.

There is no "we". All you voted for was which direction you think the government should act. This isn't about the "in" camp and the "out" camp. If the country acted like you, we'd literally have civil war (a pretty even one at that, with a 48-52 split). Don't act like this vote has empowered you.

The vote has been made so we move on. Let's see what plans the government draws up for holding the country together whilst beginning the process.

That makes no sense, what are you getting at?

Yes, but most voted for exit. That is how democracy works, the option with the majority of votes will win.

Thats where UKIP comes into the equation

Brexit won because most of British are racist as fuck and scared of muslims, which is "ok?". And remember that in Scotland and N.Ireland remain won.

I think it's quite obvious what my sentiment means. If you don't understand. Tough. I can only type with one hand so I'm not going to m

When you have a very split vote (52/48), you make some concessions for the losing side to keep them on side while the majority decision goes. For example, we leave the EU but retain single market membership. It's a basic aspect of vaguely competent management.

I mean, being scared of migrants makes sense in this period, it's not so "peaceful"

We don't hate all Muslims, just the ones that like to blow up innocent people and say its for their 'god', infact we dont want any of these terrorists here.

Hahahahaha, no. We don't care about religion, nor are we scared of them. We did it to control our borders and many more reasons that doesn't have any meaning of the borders.
Oh, maybe, just possibly, we also did it to get people like you away from our democratic country. <3

Just stop. You obviously do not have an idea of what we are doing. If you are going to criticize the English, stop speaking our language and stop going on the modern internet.

And there must be a reason why Scotland and N. Ireland voted for remain, English people always used to be conservative and isolationst... if you don't count the British Empire
