Isn't it time to acknowledge the referendum has been a complete catastrophe?

    No they didn't. Practically everything that the nincompoop said in his Daily Liar column was of his own making. How on earth he had the gall to say what he did when none of it has been decided, except in his own little world, is beyond the bounds of anyone with intelligence. Most, if not all, has already been shot down in flames: Brussels rejects Boris Johnson 'pipe dream' over single market access | Politics | The Guardian

    And people still continue to believe him (the man sacked from the Times for making up tulip up...)
    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

      I think we will become happier neighbours when we leave, we always were uncomfortable with the EU and some on the continent like Junker exploited it.

      We will end up with some kind of deal where we stay in the EEA. I doubt most people will see a difference.

          We are only just into the biggest political upheaval in Europe since the 1940's. Turbulence and general wailing and nashing of teeth are to be expected.

          What we need right now is for some political leadership.

          Everyone needs to MTFU.
          I think we need a unity coalition government - batting for Team GB.

            There is going to be a compromise....

            “No-one on the leave side doesn’t want free trade with Europe,” prominent pro-leave MEP Daniel Hannan just said on BBC News.

            As far as Europe goes, it should be possible to stay inside an arrangement with the EU with bilateral deals, which would allow for free movement, but what we will not have are foreign courts deciding who can come into the UK.

            This should make all but he racists happy. Reverse Maastricht

                Buy Britain, but sell Europe after stunning Brexit rebuke - MarketWatch


                .. Britain is now the first country to leave, but it certainly won’t be the last. As that pressure grows and grows, and as the euro starts to fracture, the region is going to struggle even more.

                By Christmas, the U.K. will have started to resolve its economic future. But the rest of Europe will be dealing with the fallout for years — and that will make it virtually impossible to invest in....

                  As long as the UK can abolish the metric system, then my Gran will be happy. Not that she's with us anymore, bless her soul.

                      Bastard EU regulations demanded 180 cm. It broke my poor Great Aunt's heart.
