Sound up for this. Funniest thing about Brexit I've seen.

what would that party be ? With the current anti EU propaganda and the clown high in polls among the morons

No chance. Absolutely not. Maybe in 10 years time it might become a fringe party's platform; adopted by a major party in another 10 years.

Then allow another 10 years for them to get into power and make it happen.

Some butthurt Brexitards downvoting you...though don't act like the EU is perfect. Look at Greece. Do they ever learn from their mistakes?

I imagine the EU will have a lot of leverage so the UK will need to make some compromises that they won't like.

I suspect the terms would not be I the UK's favour. Too many old folk bought into project fear. The Scots were correct.

You make it sound like all Scots voted stay. Over a million voted leave too.if they'd all voted remain it would actually have swung the vote

No, but sweeping generalities are what the media reports for the rest of the UK. Those people that did vote leave really regret it now. So

Many didn't realise (and I don't know why) that it would mean chaos at passport control and possibility of leaving retirement homes in Spain

Absolutely. I just hope they'll let Scotland back in. It's fucked the farmers and the fishermen that wanted it so badly. Some didn't but

They were in the minority of that sector. I fear for what will happen in Belfast now too. It seems to have been a trigger.

To go back in (if they accept them) they'll need to go with the Euro. It won't be easy going if they think it will.
