And totally justified as this isn't some BB eviction that didn't go my way, this has actually effected me personally, and other people that are in my situation, but of course don't care about that as it's all about Immigration and some delusion that these people care about the NHS.

Disappointed isn't even the word. One of the top searches on Google today is "what is the EU?" That's people trying to actually find out what they've voted for.
This country is absolutly ****ed now. Absolute morons made this happen.

Another popular search today is 'moving to scotland'

A fair few people I know have researched slightly AFTER placing their vote

I am delighted but realize not everyone is happy. Don't ask me how, but I found this leaked footage from Brussels which shows how the EU is reacting to the vote...

People voted this because they saw it as a way of getting rid of the migrants and immigrants and possibly as a way forward for the NHS. Neither of this things are going to happen. They had absolutly no clue what they were voting for.

Very disappointed.

Proof that democracy isn't always the best solution. The saddest part is that it's mainly the low income uneducated people who voted to leave, and those are the people who are going to suffer the most as a result of it.

I work in the corporate world in London and could transfer to New York anytime so I'm not so worried about myself but this is a terrible and scary outcome for the future of Britain's economy.

The vote was entirely facilitated by nationalist populism and false fear and that's very sad to me.

Some of the leavers I've seen sound so dumb. One undecided said she just had a last minute "comeon England" . One man who can barely speak English said he voted to leave to stop immigration. His wife was British so it's alright. And this woman from buzz feed who wishes she could now vote remain because her and family didn't realise that things such as Cameron leaving and what's already happening would actually be happening.

Also David Cameron is out so can't complain!

And your situation is the only one that matters, right?

You basically said people of a certain age shouldn't vote because they'll be dead soon. Sit down.
