Scotland isn't British ?
Well blow, all these years it's been a part of mainland Britain and it's not British.

You just have to look at the map to realize, that you in a minority on this Board. If wasn't for Scotland, Northern Ireland and London and a small bit yorkshire and few small counties. This is pretty much a landslide and it is what most brits wanted. My advice is, Move to Scotland, Northern Ireland before the 2 years are up and you then still be part of Europe. Should they decide to split from Britain.

How is less than 52% "a landslide"?

And when did your grammar improve to only slightly below an Internet average?

Look at the map. Only look at Britain and Wales look how much Yellow compared to the blue. The Scots are not British are they? They are very Blue - So is northern Ireland. In Britain and Wales it's a Landslide.That's very very yellow to me, unless I colour blind.

Hahah, thick cunt.

Oooof

The real nastiness will come when those who voted remain (and are financially disadvantaged by leaving) realise that there's someone down the road whose fault it is, and that they'd quite like to communicate how cross they are about it all.

My local sandwich shop near work were crowing yesterday morning, about how there's enough money to sort out the NHS now and the housing problems have been solved. I work in housing and kept a straight face, but I'll not be giving them my £3 every morning anymore. That's on principal, but the main employer where they are is going to be cutting hundreds of staff soon, as a result of their vote.

I'm sure Boris will have plenty of benefits for them, when they go to him cap in hand in a year or two.

No one's going to be happy.

The panacea that a good proportion of Leave supporters voted for will never be delivered.

If the pound stays depressed that's going to affect the cost of living pretty quickly. And no dirty muslims are going to get sent back muslamia any time soon.

Thinking this over in hindsight, I wonder how that phrase "reformed EU" affected the vote.

Because, basically, the Remain campaign was full of caveats and qualifications in its language throughout. Cameron never said "let's vote to stay in the EU", it was always "let's vote to remain in a reformed EU". Always qualified with "reformed" every single time. Corbyn was even more explicitly unenthusiastic with his "7 out of 10" support for Remain.

All of the Remain camp was like this. And, yes, my own support, as I detailed, was also exactly on the same footing. Starting with "the EU as it stands is a little shit but... but... but..." and never giving whole-hearted enthusiastic support for the option you're advocating. Which is, you've got to admit, not the greatest way to put forward a case for making a positive choice for the "Remain" box on your ballot sheet (though it was just simply being honest that it was all rather complicated and nuanced, so I'd never have done it any differently).

Meanwhile, the Leave campaign had clarity to their message. "Vote Leave" and we leave. No caveats nor qualifications.

Bat shit insane, in my view. But you can see how it's a simple and clear message, which has its obvious appeal, when striving to make a difficult decision over a complex situation.

Haha comparing the population to my bathroom project. Okay then drunken-me.

The problem with stalky mates is when you're drunkenly venting shit you don't really mean on a forum they don't participate in they end up seeing it and bad feeling happens. I mean yeah, it's baffling that people just can't seem to grasp how voting works and how individual contributions still matter (is it maybe a self-esteem thing?) and in private frustration you're like "argh how are people so thick!" but it doesn't mean it's a serious observation that I'd like to convey to the individual concerned. I just don't like arguing with mates so talk shit about them that I don't really mean in echo chambers instead...
But I don't think this is a conversation we're likely to have :p
Really should have varied my usernames.

Anywho.. starting to get to the acceptance point of grief over the EU now. Regardless of accusations about intelligence, I still hold a belief that most people in this country, generally speaking, are good people. And so whatever happens, we'll make it

Fuck me, ignorance can't be excused. Scotland as always been Scottish. Imagine calling the Scots British.

Hahah, thick cunt.

Wanker. Wait you too stupid and thick to make any point. you always have been and always will be.

Brilliant

Scotland is part of Great Britain. They don't like being called British though, because patriotism

I watched the animated film 'ParaNorman' the night before the referendum, the central message of which is that when people say or do horrible things it's often out of fear. This is also frequently true of "stupid" things. I don't think half the country is stupid; the Leave campaign just hooked into the fears of a great many people to the extent that rational thought was diminished.

Post site crash, the petition is now showing over 1,250,000 signatories. I and others I know will not be counted there yet as we have not yet received our e-mails to confirm, despite having initiated our signing over eighteen hours ago.

Scotland as always been Scottish. Imagine calling the Scots British.

Scotland occupies the northern part of Great Britain and has been part of the Kingdom of Great Britain for over three hundred years. This later became the United Kingdom. It is called the United Kingdom because it is a union of the English, Welsh, Scottish and (currently Northern) Irish territories.

If Scotland were not British why would Scottish areas have been permitted to vote in the referendum?

LOL. It has got all blown out for Context.

I make it simpler. The Scots voted in majority to Stay. The Brits voted in majority to leave. So it's a landslide victory to leave for the Brits. How simple is that to work out. That was point I was trying to make using the map. I understand the relationship of Scotland,Britain and Ireland and all the rest of it. But that is not the point.

That map is crap because it only shows the binary outcome instead of the strength of voting.

There'll be a better map out there which uses the percentages to grade the different areas.

I don't think landslide means what you think it does
