Scotland's already talking about holding a second independence referendum. Evidently they held one in 2014 that voted remain in a 55-45 margin, but now...

As I understand it, a big part of why many Scots voted to stay in the UK then was "Well, it'd be a pain in the rear end to apply for EU membership as an independent country, so..."

Maybe don't leave your autistic six year old kid at home sick for a whole week before considering taking him to the ER?

Yeah I read about that too, I'm more curious about whether it'll succeed and what that'll mean for the Ol' UK.

Also I have wild dreams that this will finally reunite the Irelands.

E: My super fav though was an article on the BBC positing that London might just leave the UK to become independent. One can dream, that would be pretty interesting. And also hilarious.

Or... consider that Great Britain has a golden opportunity to follow & maybe improve on the German industrial & commercial model. Y'know, invest in its peoples, skills, invent, design, develop, manufacture, quality, export & home market & show the World what can be achieved free of Political dogma & restraint,

or,

Great Britain can adopt the 'remain' mantra & impersonate a cabbage!

If you are British I would kindly like you to discuss the matter, but to state that overwhelmingly I disagree. Not only because a great deal of the politics involved are the whole point, but also the fact that a greater number of acadamies are going to be springing up thus meaning less training and skills, designing an manufacturing are not even slightly present in the country and would require a great deal more investment than we are willing in a place that is soon going to have a great deal of difficulty even financing its debts.

I imagine Gerry Adams is already sending risque tweets to the First Minister. The two countries have been fairly separate for a while now so reuniting them would be like uniting other countries. Dopes on my feed already talking about how awesome it would be to have Celtic Union without remotely thinking what that would mean.

I voted to stay in the EU, but come on don't tell me an American would be happy with half of their laws being written in Mexico with minimal US input. Then, when they ask for more flexibility, they are flat out ignored and the whole continent threatens them with economic punishment.

It depends on the sector. TBH I agree with unifying laws across countries, but most Americans seem to think the whole vote was about hate immigrants Y/N. In practise the EU presented a totally aloof, impenetrable face to the average citizen, and treated the UK with blatant contempt when we (amateurishly) tried to negotiate. I'm happy to see them get a bloody nose from it even if it was a bad idea to leave.

A fair amount of it probably was hate immigrant y/n based on the exit polls and what people have been saying in the aftermath. I mean look at Farage and the fact that suddenly the money that the EU gets isn't going to the UK.

Man it would be crazy if in the United States there were governments that looked out for the best interest of their regional populations and they had to deal with laws coming from some OTHER government that could overrule their own laws and they lived really far away in some cases and still they had to do whatever this other government said!

Good thing nothing like that happens.
