Also on BBC NewsHD

[Rob!]

This woman talking sense about the East Midlands. I'm frankly ashamed to come from there.

[Rob!]

Well I'm glad they've established that a lot of why this vote happened was because of pure and simple racism

[armand.kay]

Welp I'll risk the tv licence man coming again and stream..

[Rob!]

:clap2:

[arista]

The Last Time it was Live
was after 9/11 2001

[_Tom_]

Welp, they couldn't have got a more odious trio for the Remain side.

[armand.kay]

Natalie Row is speaking truth

[arista]

Welp I'll risk the tv licence man coming again and stream..

its only a Hour
plus so so Rare it "Live"



anyone can Get up and Get Angry
no editing

[Rob!]

Natalie Row is speaking truth

:joker:

She is though. I applauded what she just said

[arista]

Blood Right that Bloke
the Young should have got out and voted more

[armand.kay]

A good point from that bloke. A lot of people my age are suggesting older voters shouldn't be allowed to vote but not a lot of young people turned up!

[Crimson Dynamo]

Well I'm glad they've established that a lot of why this vote happened was because of pure and simple racism

who have established it, some gonk on QT?

sounds legit

:joker:

[arista]

Yes to many of the Young did not Vote
even though they said they would

[_Tom_]

(I'm slightly behind) but well said the woman in pink :clap1:

[Rob!]

who have established it, some gonk on QT?

sounds legit

:joker:

It doesn't matter who established it LT, it's a simple fact. I'm not saying that everyone who voted leave is a racist but I tell you now that every single racist voted leave.

[arista]

Well I'm glad they've established that a lot of why this vote happened was because of pure and simple racism

No that was not it,

[Crimson Dynamo]

It doesn't matter whio established it LT, it's a simple fact.

Its not a fact it mere hysterical supposition

Its insulting and immature to even suggest it

[Rob!]

Its not a fact it mere hysterical supposition

Its insulting and immature to even suggest it

It is neither of those things. It's naive and completely blind to suggest it wasn't.

[jaxie]

Natalie Row is speaking truth

She is so patronising when she speaks to people it makes me cringe.

[Crimson Dynamo]

It is neither of those things. It's naive and completely blind to suggest it wasn't.

and your evidence for knowing why millions of people from the UK voted is what exactly?


(dont say "someone said so on QT")

[arista]

Good on that Vicar & Guardian Writer
for voting LEAVE

[Kizzy]

who have established it, some gonk on QT?

sounds legit

:joker:

Just who is 'legit'?

Seriously if people have had enough of 'experts' and those in the field are gonks who is left?... Your mate dave down the pub? Is he legit? :conf:

[Crimson Dynamo]

and what is their evidence rather than "well its just what i think"?

because i dont think i saw anyone answering a survey ticking the box "coz im a racist"

[Rob!]

and your evidence for knowing why millions of people from the UK voted is what exactly?


(dont say "someone said so on QT")

I wasn't going to say that. I'm not an idiot.

I think a large factor of it was right wing parties and media praying on the public's fears and insecurities as well as using one of the most important political votes in British history as an opportunity to throw jabs and shade at each other. Immigration was one of the main selling points to this - leaving the EU isn't going to change that. The fact that since the vote, people from other countries, people of colour have been abused, assaulted, attacked more so than usual is telling in itself.
Leaving the EU has nothing to do with what people thought they were voting for. It was a knee jerk reaction and the vote was based on the wrong information.

so no actual evidence at all then?

but hey lets just call a democratic majority of millions racists

:idc:

[Kizzy]

Whos evidence, the experts and those with collated stats and supporting material?

Why have anyone in specific positions to inform and advise at all? Mick the plumber would do a better job.

[Rob!]

so no actual evidence at all then?

but hey lets just call a democratic majority of millions racists

:idc:

That's obviously not what I said whatsoever but sure go with your own immovable views.

Have you ever heard of an island mentality?

[arista]

Well Done 19 year old Lad who Voted LEAVE

[Rob!]

Well Done 19 year old Lad who Voted LEAVE

Yes well done to a 19 year old lad who voted for the same thing as his parents

[jaxie]

Well Done 19 year old Lad who Voted LEAVE

And who recognised a lot of his peers are naive on the EU.

[arista]

As its Live
it has to end in a few mins.

So glad it was LIVE

[Rob!]

Well that didn't answer any questions whatsoever that are still up in the air - mainly, So the leave vote has won. What now?

[DemolitionRed]

Diane Abbot voiced herself well.

[joeysteele]

It was good and Anna Soubry was far and away the best.
Was anything learned any more as to what happens now, not really.

[smudgie]

We could do with more like Dominic Raab, from both sides of the house.
That foistsy old place needs new blood, the sooner the better.

We have only just passed the eve of the referendum so I doubt we are going to be informed just yet.

Cameron and Osborne have disappeared though and thanks to them bailing out so quickly Mondays stock market isn’t going to look very good at all. Oh well, so long as we all remember that's intentional and things will bounce back once negotiations get going.

[kirklancaster]

For the record, in my experience - if tv and other media footage and articles are to be believed - the members of most of the Extreme Right Wing factions in this country, appear be low-life, poorly educated thugs - just the type of people who would not even bother to register to vote, let alone vote.

I don't accept that,and it should be unacceptable, after expecting people to vote for change,there should have at least been a 'basic' plan for afterwards.
Now it is all over can you answer what any plan is.

I have not a single idea, and talking to people who voted both remain and leave yesterday and today, neither have they.

Nothing at all, and now it seems even the leaders of leave, have nothing to say as to any plan either.
Meanwhile in the lack of anything concrete,more resentment is building between the 2 sides and even in Nations that are part of the UK.

[_Tom_]

:clap1: to the guy in the audience who put Diane in her place for lying about "Farage backing out of his NHS promise" when that wasn't to do with him.

The government have no clue whatsoever. The Prime minister has resigned, the chancellor has openly said before this started that he had absolutely no plan for this outcome and not one single politician has actually been able to give an answer of what will actually happen now. Nobody knows - a sign if anything that a second referendum is needed.

[jaxie]

Diane Abbot voiced herself well.

I thought she did, and I'm not a fan.
