On this one you're just straight up misinformed Marsh. There's always the chance that it'll rebound of course but it has been decimated over night and it is unquestionably because of the result. Not "really really likely that it's related"... It's a straight up fact.

Marsh it's through the floor. And it happened quicker than any currency has ever crashed in history. Black Friday(?) of 1992 looks like a positive day compared to what happened last night. Japan has already announced it's backing out of trade with us and that is only the beginning.

the markets are about greedy bastards making money thinking they know whats going on

fck them

today they got shafted., good

OMG.
There's a lot of non conservatives sounding like a bunch of sneering tories and it's only page two. What a laugh.

Aswell a fair few 'we made Britain great again'...but when questioned they do not know exactly how they did this...

But meh, its done now and there is no going back. I am trying to be optimistic but failing as if this really was the best decision for the country, surely the leave campaign wouldn't have been largely built on lies...

"Over night". It changes daily and dropped extremely low a matter of weeks ago.
Let's not get into a frenzy 5 minutes in.

I wouldn't be as mad if it wasn't for them backtracking on lots of key points they used in their Leave campaign

And I think making bad assumptions in order to present yourself as tepidly funny may be yours.

I'm not gauging anything on facebook, I'm just looking forward to the fumes of the ignorant when they've realised they've done goofed. Should have been obvious to anyone that's what I meant...

Better than rolling over and agreeing to the terms of a bunch of nameless twats from Brussels.

This is fair enough, but I would wager around 40-50% of leave voters (maybe more..) were all about immigration. which won't stop anyway.

I'm actually enjoying the fact that they were saying we can take our time, no need to rush into anything, what were they expecting Brussels to do, agree :joker: Brussels calling the shots and telling them to get on with it is delicious irony

FFS exchange rates are not a contest. A fall in the GBP means the uks exports will be cheaper and stimulate the economy.

As for investors, they are like lemmings, they follow trends so as not to stand out of line and scare others. The markets dipped as expected but as soon as Mark Carney gave a little reassurance they started bouncing back because opportunities are always looked for on stock markets. There will be a few bumps along the road but life will go on; so please stop this chicken licken nonsense that the sky is falling in because a few hours of very volatile trading of currencies and stocks does not give you or me any clue about our future economy.

I didn't say all of them did I, and they only know why they voted as they did.
I was simply pointing out my view,it seems when it was about their futures and they were the ones in their 20s and 30s,they chose to vote solidly for in.

I never said you did, hence why I phrased the whole post as a question.

Are you really brushing it off as coincidence? Like I said it might well rebound but refusing to acknowledge that it took a hit in line with the revelation that it was 52% leave is just... I don't know what to say other than that it's just fantasy :shrug:. To the extent that I can genuinely only assume that you already know that...

More fool them if that's what they were voting out for. If I believed for a moment that immigrants would be treated unfairly and that borders would be closed, I would not of voted out.

Corbyn has said, he believes most of the out voters were unhappy with this corrupt government. I think he's being kind or perhaps its just the circles he mixes in. A lot voted out because they didn't want that Pakistani family buying the house next door. The plotting and scheming and properganda from both sides has been sickening but the most sickening thing to me is, I have to now group myself with a mirade of immigrant intolerant arseholes because according to some on here and the other forums I use, to vote out is to be a racist.

I know **** all about British politics but from what I hear from people this sounds almost as bad as the thought of Trump winning the US election

Not a coincidence but not a permanent end of the world, slit your wrists revelation.

It's an OTT reaction to the vote (Seen a lot of those today), we'll see what happens once the country actually moves forward with its decision to leave the EU.

But thats a ridiculous reason to vote out in this...the time to show the government we want them out is surely in the next GE. A lot of things the EU are getting the blame for are the fault of the Tories..someone voted out as they disagree with the bedroom tax...when the only thing the EU had to do with that was investigating it to see if it is even lawful :S
