    Brexit Bullshit

    Fuck off. I'm not British and even I can see how mindbogglingly stupid this decision is. You're upheaving over 40 years of economy built around being a member of the European Union and creating trouble for literally every single country that is a part of the EU when it comes to trade, not just the UK. Trade agreements will have to be re-negotiated now that the UK has opted out of the benefits that comes with trading among EU countries and I can promise you right now that these new negotiations will not favour the UK. The Pound Sterling is taking a nose-dive and is currently at the lowest value I have ever seen in my entire life and while the financial situation obviously cannot be predicted 100%, there is no doubt that there is short-term financial pain coming to all within the UK. Who knows, maybe the UK just voted yes to their very own "Do-It-Yourself" recession. Considering that 45-50% of British export is to other countries in the European Union, it's quite incredible to me that they decided to leave. Not to mention the issue that will occur with Brits who are abroad. The Erasmus exchange program will be limited if not downright removed from the UK, meaning that the future of all of Britains exchange students in Europe is uncertain. And what about the people with British citizenships living abroad in Europe? Unless the countries they're staying with offer them citizenships, there is a chance that they could be sent packing and be forced to return to the UK. I'm not even touching on the internal struggles that the United Kingdom will face now that Scotland and even Ireland are much more likely to vote for their own independence. England shot itself and its friends in the EU in the foot with this decision. The EU is still reeling from the refugee crisis and now the UK is adding another logistical problem on top of it. There's just no way they can come out of this without some damage to the relations between them and their neighbours. It doesn't matter that "other countries are doing just fine without the EU" because other countries aren't the fucking United Kingdom. People in the UK have every right to be worried about their future, not to mention frustrated about the results of the vote. There is no hysteria here, just anger and discontent for good reason.

    Brexit Bullshit

    This is fucking stupid as fuck. I don't like to make generalizations but frankly if you voted leave you're probably either racist, or in denial and think that Britain is some colossal super power power like it was 70-200 years ago who can survive without 'DAT BLOODEH EEH YUU'. These stupid fucks have willingly given up the EU's bill on Human Rights because they're told 'Don't worry mates we'll make our own it'll all be good :^))))'. They see the EU as some massive fucking beast which controls every aspect of our lives and steals all our money, when in reality now trading with countries within the EU will impose a tax on whoever's buying from us, which will mean they'll buy from somewhere else. Alongside that we've got away with NOT following things that the EU said we had to. Just look at the right to die. The EU says that it's a fundamental human right yet there is no way for anyone living within Britain who wants to end their life (but is incapable to due to something like a physical disability) to actually do it without assistance. And if somebody DOES assist them? They can be charged with Voluntary Manslaughter. This is the single greatest fuckup within recent memory. This was more important than any general election and some stupid cunts refused to go and vote because the weather in many parts of the country yesterday was quite bad. I'm fucking mad as hell. Scotland will almost definitely leave the United Kingdom now so they can re-join the EU on their own. Northern Ireland was extremely dependent on the EU in the first place, so there's a very high chance that they will join together with the Republic of Ireland now to also stay in the EU. And Wales were getting a fuck tonne of money from the EU yet they voted to leave. You know there's a big fucking problem when Donald Trump congratulates you on 'taking back your country'. Oh and all the ignorant cunts who voted Leave are now running around saying 'We did it we did it we won!!!! Look at how gr8 we are!!! XDDDDDD'

    Brexit Bullshit

    So Brexit. My company is an international company with offices in 92 countries. Today they announced the firing of 150 of the UK staff and closing of 5 of the 13 UK region offices and moving them to Ireland and Germany to continue to work on the EU projects. Today they lost 10,000 euro and the cost of doing business in the UK jumped by 17%. They expect to possibly close all par the Belfast and London UK offices to deal with UK work. Also the Northern Unionists are calling for an United Ireland. HELL HAS FUCKING FROZEN OVER.

    Brexit Bullshit

    Because every country has the same resources and infrastructure that every other country in Europe has. A lot of things have changed in the past ~60 years, our currency has already gone in the dumpster and the future is EXTREMELY uncertain. So yeah, please don't tell me to 'get over' the fact that a bunch of ill-informed elderly people have just dictated what the foreseeable future of my country is going to be like. Getting your way doesn't mean that you're right.
