Brexit had nothing to do with left vs right:
"This was a campaign that revealed a Britain divided class against class, region against region, electorate against politicians, nativist against cosmopolitan, old against the young, rich against poor and London against the rest.

We divide by generation. Two-thirds of voters under 35 want to stay in. Sixty per cent of those over 55 want to leave. We divide by class. People in the professions want to stay by 62 per cent to 38, while 63 per cent of unskilled workers want to leave. We divide by education. University graduates prefer staying to going by 70-30. We divide by attitude. The In voters cite inequality as a major concern; Out voters talk about immigration."

I doubt the EU will give them many concessions on the way out.
The U.K. just shot themselves in the foot and turned their back on their 40 years of hard work with the EU, and no I am not a lefty far from it.

It is easy to blame the EU for your problems, sadly they don't have access to a crystal ball showing them a parallel universe where they weren't part of the EU. I doubt the UK would have done as well without Europe in the last 40 years.

Of course Europe is not perfect, but the project has brought peace a prosperity for the last 70 years to a continent which was in complete ruins.

The rise and rise of populism is a serious worry. It's like a bad case of deja vu.
Despite what the Farange, ALA or other Front National lovers have to say in their defense, they have no economic platform and only campaign on the fear of people who think they are being left behind. I am yet to hear a rational argument as to how the UK who do better with a restricted access to a market of 450m people...even worse if you have to sell there, your products will have to comply with European law which you will have zero say in.

Anyway good luck to them facing uncertain times on their own.

Let s hope we don't get a second shock in two weeks here and that Bill the liar doesn't get in

You could have saved a lot of typing and just said "It's the miserable, selfish boomers' fault, us progressives are the only ones who know what's good for The World".
