I liken the market as judging the economy by counting the cars in a casino parking lot.

"Labour MP on Sky still doesn’t get it. Says problem is “they did not get the message out”."

I have no doubt that Labour screwed up their part of the Remain campaign. They were barely audible to the UK public and their leader was useless at persuading wavering Labour voters. He left Ed "loser boy" Milliband to do most of it. They even had to bring on Gordon Brown at the last minute to try to turn things around! (He was a hopeless former Labour leader and one of the worst PMs ever.)

I suspect what happened was that the lefty voters in Labour constituencies voted for Leave in order to give David Cameron and George Osborn (the posh Conservative boys) bloody noses. Cameron and Osborn were the most effective Remain campaigners but the fact that they are Conservatives did not endear them to disgruntled Labour voters. The Labour Party dropped the ball big time, but they have always been experts at screwing up!

The Sun never Sat on the British Empire.

Hopefully this means the U.K. will be in control of their own Destiny again.

And not the E.U.S.S.R.

A Leave win will undercut the notion that globalism is inevitable. There’s a school of thought that says we’re doomed because the globalists have total control over events.

A Leave win will cast some pretty big doubt on that kind of fatalism.


I would guess Muslim immigration to the GB by and large isn’t coming from the EU. Leave won’t change that.

I really wanted to visit Scotland.

The English always whip the Reich. I’ll give them due credit: the wily English are full of surprises.

You never know what to expect from them.

> What is really crazy about all of that is that nothing in the world changes tomorrow if this vote succeeds.

There’s plenty changing and it’s not waiting until tomorrow. Global markets are being rocked like it’s 2008.

Beautiful. Love it.

If Leave wins I’m going to put a Union Jack license plate on the front of my car to celebrate.

There’s going to be utter rage against this among those who “know better’...they’re in shock now, but I expect some serious attempts at diminishing the importance of this.

Bless the UK! I’m amazed and thrilled for them. Let countries be countries, this borderless world crap ignores the nature of humans. Alliances, friendships and common interests are beneficial, but must arise from natural causes, they cannot be forced ..

Regs and license are a freaking nightmare.

I am inspired by the beautiful people tonight who vote for freedom from this BS.
