You know what? *** it. I'll just buy the good tickets and go to the Captain Morgan Club on the 100 level of the arena. Drink rum and maybe run into the broadcasters getting sloshed before the game!

large mass of FB Warriors that did not vote
73% turnout is huge.

That is 73% of the people who were "registered" to be eligible to vote in the UK and not specific to the referendum, which requires voters registration to participate. There is a large population of people that have not registered to vote in the first place that are eligible to do so. Add them to the 27% (13M) that actually registered but did not vote and you will get a significant figure to impact on a 1.3M poll difference.

Wow, that is a disastrous interview, who let that guy go on TV? He basically just admits that that campaign promise was a lie and isn't going to happen, the morning after the vote. That woman is right to be disgusted. I didn't think it would take long for buyer's remorse to set in, but certainly more than a few hours after the vote.

This is what happens when you go along with populism.

Wonder what the leave voters were feeling when they saw that interview this morning. A lot of them would have voted leave based on that subject alone.

This is the bus that they traveled around in. I would expect full damage control soon.

From what I've gathered, and feel free to slap me upside the head if I'm wrong, he's the leader of one of the parties that was really pushing for the UK to leave.

Seems to be a piece of work. Likes shouting at and insulting EU representatives on the conference floor.

You're correct, he's Nigel Farage, leader of UKIP, the UK Independence Party.

So can they just disband now? Their job is done, the UK voted to leave.

He was opposing us to have the right for us to have this referendum. He is the President EU parliament.
Most People view the EU parliament as extremely undemocratic. As it's voted by the elected representatives from each nation.

That woman is right to be disgusted. I didn't think it would take long for buyer's remorse to set in, but certainly more than a few hours after the vote.

In fairness to him, he's actually right to an extent.

He was part of a leave group, but not the campaign with the slogan on the bus.

He also cannot dictate that the £350million would be put into the NHS. His party has 1 MP out of a house of 650, so no real power or influence in there. He's not even an MP himself, so would have no control over the budget issues.

The people behind that leave group are MP's to a large extent, so it's really down to if they keep their word on it. I'm no fan of Farage by any means, but the interview was a bit clutching at straws. Reminds me of the LibDem "Free University education if we win the 2010 election thing". They ended up in a coalition government, but weren't the majority party. From a technical viewpoint, they therefore didn't win the election, and so didn't need to enact that policy.

UKIP suggests that re-establishing trade ties with Commonwealth is the way forward.

Hrm... Yeah...

This cartoon has a new meaning now.

What gets me is, Great Britain just sat back and let the bigots in their population crash the stock market, throw the economy of the entire world into jeopardy, open their own country up to two years of economic and political uncertainity, and all for what? So mostly white, uneducated, heterosexual Christian bigots can hate other people.
Cool story bro tell me what you really think.

Be hilarious if Scotland left the UK and Ireland unified then did the same. Especially because a good chunk of the rhetoric was 'Free Britain'.

It's almost like a scene from Game of Thrones.

"Johnson and the Queen must renounce all claim to dominion of the North. From this time till the end of time, we are free and independent from your rule. Neither Johnson, Farage nor any of his men shall set foot in our lands again."
- Nicola Sturgeon

...
Then the Migrant Black White Walkers breach the tunnel between France and England and all hell breaks loose.
