Yes, but now the Guardian has an opinion piece “If referendums are the answers, we are asking the wrong questions”

They are beginning to realise they have lost. Time to bring out all the hackneyed arguments; referendums are wrong, it is the uneducated proles who caused this disaster, people answered another question than the referendum one, xenophobia, racism etc etc.

Great! I like it when they suffer!

Yes, and it was the time of "The British Invasion". A big reason for getting a Pen-Pal from England.

I was in a French class and was told we all had to get a Pen-Pal from France. I got one but didn't continue to write. I didn't tell my teacher I got a Pen-Pal from England too.

This conservative Trump supporter is a Ph.D., adopted (so I could be black), and has more degree than any five MSNBC hosts.

Your Ph.D. must not be in English. Oh, wait. You're a writer! Nevermind...

Actually, I think I played the Grammar Nazi card on you about 10 years ago. :)

I saw him once. He once went back to the stage after the sound check and switched all the music around so that every person started with a different song. And when he counted it down . . . chaos.

I don’t know if members of the royal family vote. I’m inclined to say they do not.

I just returned from England. If you go, bring LOTS of money. Everything is ridiculously expensive.

Wowie Zowie is off the first album, but Montana (where the dental floss line comes from) is from almost 20 years later.

Here’s a groove for you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=girnJH7tvpM

Also, the whole Cucamonga album is groove also.

I’m stunned by these results. I didn’t think Leave had a chance.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Me too! Polls had been so close, but remain started pulling ahead by a few points as the day drew near.

Finally, today, after not getting any new news, I turned to cnbc and was stunned to find all the money was overwhelmingly on the remain side -— as if it was a no brainer.

Go figure. The serfs are fighting back against their globalist overlords——now...if only...in the US come November.

The best thing Britain did when they entered the EU was to keep their own Currency.

I imagine if they had adopted the EUR Dollar then, this vote would have been a resounding “Remain”.

Manchester is still out.

Honestly, with Brexit ahead by over 525K, its too big a lead to overcome.

Though we did get a scare earlier in the night when Scotland boosted Remain to a brief lead. But that was expected.

They may sit back to see just how bad the carnage is at first, but by the end of the day, they'll intervene.

They have to. Certain derivatives come into the money if the VIX (volatility index) shows a -2% move, so they'll do their best to keep the drop to 1.999999%.

This is when we learn that the EU government instituted a super-delegate concept. Their 5 millions super-delegates have yet to reveal their votes.
