It would be a bad move on Trump’s part, just as it was for Obama to get involved.

Texas leaving is maybe a good idea too.


I don’t this happening any time soon, but one has to wonder if we are witnessing the future (more independence) or if the trend towards centralized governance will continue as it has the past few decades....

What will happen when voters in Texas or Idaho are expected to bail out Illinois?

Haven’t felt this good about an election result since tossing Cantor from office!

BBC calls it for Leave. Adios EU.

Congrats to the Brits for fighting globalism.

Not just globalism. Authoritarianism. Germany has been dictating to the rest of the EU with disasterous results. This will solidify Merkel’s place in history as the worst German leader since Hitler.

I drove through Wales last March. On one street I saw a banner hanging from an apartment window with a rainbow flag and thought it was just another UK liberal. It wasn’t; the banner contained anti queer, anti AL Gore and anti EU wordage. The banner gave me hope for the UK!

Even though large tracts of Europe and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Gestapo and all the odious apparatus of Nazi rule, we shall not flag or fail.

We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France,
we shall fight on the seas and oceans,
we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be,
we shall fight on the beaches,
we shall fight on the landing grounds,
we shall fight in the fields and in the streets,
we shall fight in the hills;
we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God’s good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.”

No more refugees?

Sort of ... But France said if they voted leave that France would no longer try and stop illegals from going into the tunnel.

I really thought they’d choke - I kept thinking of Scotland (who dragged down the results...again) and the independence vote.

This is Trump’s moment. He needs to ride the wave.

Obama has taken to his fainting couch.

They must disentangle themselves from the EU to control their own borders.......the government-business-banking ruling elites must be forced to literally allow the exit of Britain.

There can be no negotiations to keep the UK in the EU with a façade of independence for the UK. No fake proposals claiming a ‘better deal’ being brought back to the voters.

That is what the political elites will attempt right now, a new deal to bring back to the voters until they vote ‘the right way’ to stay in the EU.
