Brexit wins: Britain votes to exit the European Union

This is always an excellent idea. I’ve learned a lot that way myself. :smile:

Either that or apparently get opinions on this issue from Lindsay Lohan. It’s kind of a toss up at this point.

The pound was worth $2 when I moved here. What is it now, $1.35?

That updates waaaay too slow. For people who want to hyperventilate in real-time (or if you live in the US, look forward to cheaper Scotch):

$1.33, and was $1.50 about six hours ago.

yep, my thoughts exactly. despite the appearance of his imploding campaign, we shouldn’t get too complacent.

Mr Cameron said in the event of a Leave vote, he would activate Article 50 of the 2009 Lisbon Treaty without undue delay - setting in motion the process of withdrawing from the European Union. George Osborne has suggested this could happen within two weeks of a leave vote.

Once Article 50 is triggered, there is no way back into the EU unless by unanimous consent from all other member states.

From the BBC. Wow. Britain already had special treatment for being in the EU without adopting its currency. The second they invoke Article 50, it might be hard to get back in.

This could be permanent.

Everything you said is a good thing. In medicine, when the body is healing, it goes through a decline only to become strong again.

Trump will be the next President of the united states…you just watch and see.

Sorry, grandad. Looks like you caught that bullet for nothing.

My condolences to the Brits. I’ve got a couch you can crash on if you need to stage your own #Brexit.

Hey, Donald, thanks for stopping by. I’m surprised, though - do you need a special keyboard to type with your tiny hands?

If he does, it would only be for a few days, since most of his half-baked schemes are illegal.

And what will the body count be, I wonder?

That is exactly what I am afraid of, because I’ve already had your fellow followers of the Short Fingered Vulgarian threaten/promise to load me and my family into gas chambers and ovens if he wins (and, no, I am not exaggerating).
