It'll really gently caress China over with no route to the EU that sounds funny enough right there.

which is funny because the usa said "lol if you think that you'll get special treatment from us if you aren't part of the eu" and the leavers melted down

Well, the US has long wanted a European political block ala the US. Just one that was more integrated and more sympathetic to listening to American interests. So leavers shouldn't be surprised.

I'm not so sure about how well the EU is going to do even if they stay.

if the british leave there is a 100% chance that germany will become the usa's new favorite

There's probably some big picture stuff I'm missing and all of the economists seem to disagree but in general a weaker Europe usually lends itself to a stronger America.

europe is tearing itself apart (again) and china and russia are in terminal demographic decline lol

seriously though, i find it really weird that an italian is free to live an work in the UK but a Canadian need to get a visa, and vice versa. back in my grandmothers day you could move between Australia/UK/Canada just like in the EU today. why did we give that up?

we dont want british people immigrating and screwing up our countries

What is the volume on the trading with the pound "crashing"? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

BBC says that the financial markets are making GBS threads bricks massively right now

FTSE down 8% and it isn't even open yet

Tokyo down 6%

the pound is cratering it's worse than 2009, it's at 1985 levels right now

like i just did a little bit of browsing on this and yeah china got thoroughly hosed by this, they wanted the uk to serve as an anchor for chinese influence in the west and as a bridge to the eu and to the usa but the uk just severed itself from the eu and forced the us to turn to germany and france so lol

you will probably actually see the chinese abandoning ship soon

the uk just hosed itself so hard that even china, the authoritarian state with a potemkin economy in ongoing meltdown is going to go "nah this isnt a good deal for us"

china's economy isn't potemkin, it's a loving massive real economy in ongoing meltdown, but they have an authoritarian government working overdrive to slow and soften the impact, so who loving knows when or how bad the crash will be.

chinas authoritarian government has absolutely no loving idea how to deal with the meltdown. we are not seeing a "soft landing" or "hard landing" in china right now, we are seeing a crash. and the uk just hosed them even harder than they are already hosed

the only country that really "won" tonight is russia and only in the sense that the uk's economy is now as hosed as russia's

Literally no. What the gently caress measurement is giving you that idea?

stagnant industrial production, record capital flight, the government literally shoveling money into a furnace in a desperate attempt to prop up the economy? the chinese are running a 10% deficit just to keep their economy from outright collapsing

this is a crash. crashes can happen over long periods of time, friend

I cannot wait to hear the reactions of American media in the morning. The NYSE is going to take a beating, Americans will look around confused thinking that we got away from the UK to avoid this poo poo a few hundred years ago.

Good times. Has the Trump weighed in yet?

trump didnt know what brexit was when a reporter asked him. she asked him and he actually went "huh?" and she had to explain it to him like a literal loving child before he went "oh yeah i think they should leave"
