Sorry but in no universe was this the lesser of two evils - if Remain had won, we would have had the option to vote again if it all went to **** after staying. This way, we're not getting that chance again. That's it. We're out. There's no going back from this. If it all goes to **** from here....tough. We now are at a risk of losing Scotland and probably Northern Ireland so we'll be even smaller as an independent country. The chances of people of our generation owning our own houses is now through the floor because the value of the pound has taken a bigger nose dive than any currency in history. I don't see how this can possibly be a good thing? The fact that there is a genuine confusion about all these facts and figures that have come through is proof that a vast majority of the leavers had absolutely no clue what they were voting for.
But we were already "in" and it had all already gone to sh*t.

It's not about "that's it", new terms could be agreed in future years if it comes to that. There's also the possibility of a second referendum. It's not all black and white. We didn't join in 5 minutes, we won't leave in 5 minutes.

If Northern Ireland and Scotland want to do that, good for them. I'd rather our countries make their own decisions no matter how small rather than bowing down to a small elite.
