The immigrants, for the most part, work hard and contribute to the economy. Yeah they send money home and yeah some do come over and scab money, but the majority dont.

No point arguing aboout stuff now. Its happened so sleeves up and lets get started in not turning into a country of whinging tits.

Means nothing without the volumes. I bet the 18-24 turnout was low.

Unchecked mass immigration. Censorship. A decade of lies upon lies, from both our main parties. Laced with propaganda, amidst a consistant downward spiral of wealth inequality. All adds up.

Sadly I know a lot of people who pump kids out to get money and bigger houses. No intention of working ever. So they are to blame as much as the tax evading corporations as far as I'm concerned.

Were you a Remain campaigner? Are you sore about the referendum result? Check out these 10 top self-comforting strategies.

1.) Call every white person who voted Leave a "racist", ignoring the fact that Europeans are also white. Make sure you ignore and marginalise ethnic minority leave voters.

2.) Claim that the (huge) turnout wasn't high enough. 72%? It should have been at least 75%! 80%? It should have been 85%! Make sure to keep moving the goalposts.

3.) Make a stupid e-petition demanding another referendum, just like the socialists did when Labour lost last year. We need to keep having referendums until we get the "right" result.

4.) Get over-excited about the economy, even if the impact has been pretty boring and mundane. Pretend that your 2:2 in English Literature makes you an expert on currency markets.

5.) Attack the very idea of Democracy, because it's only a good thing when it goes the way you want it to. Working class voters don't know what's good for them, but middle class liberals definitely do.

6.) Share memes bashing Brexit, ignoring the unwelcome and uncomfortable realisation that you are in the minority of public opinion.

7.) Boldly claim that Scotland will leave the UK, forgetting that A) they can't afford to B) the EU can't afford to take them C) 1.6m remain votes don't cancel out 2m NO votes.

8.) Make fun of Boris Johnson while sweating slightly and really hoping he doesn't become Prime Minister.

9.) Learn absolutely nothing from the campaign, blaming the result on everyone but yourself. Scaremongering and bullying are clearly the best tactics to use, there's no way they could possibly backfire.

10.) Curl up in a ball and cry yourself to sleep while listening to "Ode to Joy".

That's an overgeneralisation. Elders have seen the effects of the EU first-hand throughout their lives, no? They're supposed to yield to the infinite wisdom of those still in education and yet to figure out that they still may end up feeling fucked after fourty years of wage slaving? .

what? young folks telling old folks they don't know shit isn't just rudeness. it's ageism.

I have a hard time believing that. Maybe I'm being naive, but getting a child just for social benefits is beyond fucked up.

Especially because I don't believe for a moment that a child is a monetary net positive in any case.

someone lost their sarcasm detector in the divorce. evidently.

GLC called it on pg1



Tis way better now it actually happened

Fun fact, that guys a Newport councillor

Thoughts on the sociology of Brexit.

But the politicisation of social sciences, metrics and policy administration mean that the ‘facts’ produced by official statistical agencies must now compete with other conflicting ‘facts’. The deconstruction of ‘facts’ has been partly pushed by varieties of postmodern theory since the 1960s, but it is also an inevitable effect of the attempt (beloved by New Labour) to turn policy into a purely scientific exercise.
