I don't think this is a remotely likely scenario, but we can disagree on that.

At least you'll have 350 mil pounds a week to spend on the NHS right.
Vote on what? Do you even know how the EU is structured? Do you really?
The idiots in charge of the UK from John Major through Tony Blair to David Cameron and their lackies never had any intention of upsetting the apple-cart : they never wanted to vote anything down in the first place - do you understand this??? It was a dog and pony show for the electorate back home. Even Thatcher pulled her punches.
This is a populist uprising - the entire referendum was engineered by 1 man , Nigel Farage , who for years and years and years railed against the unelected tyranny of the EU. Cameron never wanted this vote. He had to promise it so as to win UKIP voters over to the mainstream Conservative party otherwise we were heading for a hung parliament and probably a Labour-Lib coaltion which would have seen this country circle the pan faster than a blink of an eye.

The UK electorate had diddly squat influence in EU and dont care if that influence remains at less than diddly squat. Hello? Earth to derp. Come in please.

If you had nothing to say in the past.. you'll end up paying more for nothing to say in the future.

Or you guys can roll with PhD. Pokesans proposal, of course.

You are entirely right about one thing. This was a populist uprising, engineered by the few, .. and supported by the uninformed.

Hence your ex-brexit proponents backpeddaling as they are. That bit is obvious to you, right?

Ya'll ain't even heard of an IPA thats how far behind ya are. They might have many of thousands of beers but how many are good. Lets browse http://www.beeradvocate.com/lists/top/ and see how many are from Europe....

Pokesan doesnt know his arse from his elbow , you at least have some experience within the EU but come from a very pro-wealth distributing , corporate facist way of thinking , it largely clouds your opinion on the matter. There is no denying , we are in uncharted waters. By we , i mean all of Europe. Theres little point continuing the debate though - the British people , myself included , are prepared to row hard. We happen to think we are rowing away from the sinking Titanic. You , believe otherwise. Time will tell (month and years , not days)

This kind of thing would be repeated in every industry you can think of.
Kinda hard to sell cars when everyone is bankrupt.

Don't worry Zhe Germanz vil fixz it. All hail the 3rd Reich!

Well... they would if they could....

Germany actually owns the key UK automotive companies that churns out the vastly largest percentage of cars in the nation. Rolls can still be built but the thing of it being a matter of domestic pride is long gone.
