There seems to be a strong correlation at first sight but it needs to be done properly. Based on a first ipression it looks to be the case and if so the Sunderland result would be indicative. In the end the result might be more of a critique of the UK's inequality than the EU. The UK is the most unequal country in Europe apart from Portugal. It seems we have just found out we have become Disraeli's 'Two Nations' and neither side understands the other. Leave campaign did a great job at 'capturing' these sentiment and channeling the EU via Johnny Foreigner as the cause. Naturally, nothing will change for these people outside of the EU. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the poor/working classes who were hoodwinked into voting Tory at the GE have now protested the increased inequality they face by voting us out of the EU. Oh and immigrants. People are genius. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave has given George the laminated 'no money left' note. So it will be back to blaming labour for the next recession, because we are still recovering from that last one they caused that affected the whole world!!

PaulC Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 I am shocked by the result but I think the EU is finished anyway. Other countries will follow suit and Germany wont want to prop up the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus I work in the nhs. Im royally ****ed, trapped in a country I feel alienated from and can't do anything about it "County"!? Speak for others, but don't tar all regions with the same brush. Some parts of the UK were mainly remain; London* was mainly remain. My constituency was 75%. *London: the place with the most immigration, mainly voted remain. Funny that.

villa4europe Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Unsurprisingly anyone who voted to leave to is now xenophobic or a racist or short sighted or an idiot id say with Dave sat in Buckingham palace tendering his resignation a decent % of leave voters have got their wish this morning, i think this a huge kick in the bollocks for politics in general, people aren't happy and they've stuck something in front of them that allows them to demonstrate it the next 2 years will be interesting, for us I'm not doom and gloom, lots of guessing going on 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
