I really don't get the Scottish and Northern Irish... They want to stay in a Union that is making an example of them by politically and economically holding them at ransom so that the rest do not follow with their own referendum... The Union have literally thrown these people under a bus for their ends... The Union deserves their just desserts...

What do you make of this?
Russia and Iran delight in UK's rejection of EU
World leaders beyond the EU began the process of Friday of adjusting their relationship with the UK in the wake of the vote to leave, in reaction that ranged from trepidation to barely disguised glee in Moscow and Tehran.
A top military official in the Iranian capital predicted that Scotland and Ireland would soon be free of “the tyrannical rule of the monarchy, the so-called Great Britain”.
Moscow’s mayor, Sergey Sobyanin, took a rosier view. “Without the UK in the EU there won’t be anyone to so zealously defend the sanctions against us,” he said.
Russia’s presidential business ombudsman, Boris Titov, said: “Leaving will tear the EU away from the Anglo-Saxons, that is from the US.” Reacting to sterling’s slide on the foreign exchanges, a Russian state TV anchor observed drily: “It’s no joke. The pound is the new rouble.”
The Russian president, Vladimir Putin, sought to rebut suggestions that Brexit and the consequent weakening of the EU played into his hands.
Speaking to reporters on a visit to Uzbekistan, he said it would have “positive and negative consequences” for Russia and that “the situation will correct itself in the near future”. He put the outcome down to Britain’s concerns over migration and security, and dissatisfaction with EU bureaucracy.
In Tehran, Hamid Aboutalebi, a senior political aide to the country’s president, Hassan Rouhani, tweeted that Brexit created a “historic opportunity” for Iran, but did not elaborate on how the country could benefit from the situation.
The deputy chief of staff of Iran’s armed forces, Massoud Jazayeri, was quoted by the Fars news agency as saying “the European Union is a pawn in the hands of America”.
“England should pay the price of years of imperialism and committing crimes against humanity,” Jazayeri said, saying that the price would be Scotland and other parts of the UK demanding independence. “The people of Ireland, Scotland and others have the right to bring themselves out of the tyrannical rule of the monarchy, the so-called Great Britain”.

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...chest-people-lose-127-billion-on-brexit-chart
The world’s 400 richest people lost $127.4 billion Friday as global equity markets reeled from the news that British voters elected to leave the European Union. The billionaires lost 3.2 percent of their total net worth, bringing the combined sum to $3.9 trillion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. The biggest decline belonged to Europe’s richest person, Amancio Ortega, who lost more than $6 billion, while nine others dropped more than $1 billion, including Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos and Gerald Cavendish Grosvenor, the wealthiest person in the U.K.

The decision was due to “nothing other than arrogance and a superficial approach from the British leadership to issues that are vital to their country and to Europe as a whole,” Putin said Friday
Alexei Pushkov, the head of the Russian parliament’s foreign affairs committee, said: “The people’s opinion is dangerous for the political goals of EU ruling elites.”

"There are less than six weeks until voters go to the polls to decide whether they want the UK to stay in or leave the European Union.
The question of a second referendum was raised by Mr Farage in an interview with the Mirror in which he said: 'In a 52-48 referendum this would be unfinished business by a long way. If the Remain campaign win two-thirds to one-third that ends it.'"
Has anybody heard what Farage has said regarding that comment now?

They thought Corbyn had a hidden agenda where he secretly supported the decision to exit the Euro, because he apparently didn't support the Remain campaign hard enough.

Labour are angry due to the fact that he wasn't able to swing enough Labour voters to vote Remain as well.

European SUPERSTATE to be unveiled: EU nations 'to be morphed into one' post-Brexit
EUROPEAN political chiefs are to take advantage of Brexit by unveiling their long-held plan to morph the continent’s countries into one GIANT SUPERSTATE, it has emerged yesterday.
How could anyone think this is a good idea except globalist politicians and bankers
