Answer me this.WHO takes back control,me?you?or some right wing little englander politicians who don't give a toss for Wales or the people and you just have to consult the history books to see the truth in that.We haven't controled our own destiny since before the effin Romans invaded.![]()
Lovely poster though.
I will answer you this, THE UK SHOULD DECIDE ITS OWN FUTURE/RULES/POLICIES / NOT GERMANY/FRANCE etc etc DECIDING FOR US.
Countries should decide their own futures Not others decide for us.

I agree with you totally here. But as a remain supporter I have more respect for the people who bothered to come out to vote. The vote was won fair and square by the people who were interested enough to vote. I/we can't use nearly 30% of the nation not voting as an excuse. I respect out democracy that we free to vote or not vote, we know it be a fair vote none of this silly mark you papers with pen (insulting to our country). And at the end of it the majority of votes want to leave so I'm not going to sulk and cry, but move on and be positive about our countries future.
Does this mean when I get around to buying a new toaster I can get one without reduced power, and not have to worry about toasting my bread twice before it turns brown. Hopefully my vacuum cleaner can remain the same as well. Was a bit worried it would take me twice as long to clean my carpets while my next door neighbour takes her kids to school in her massive 4x4.
Lol. I have no idea what the future holds.
I take you post as tongue in cheek as you come across as an intelligent well informed gentleman, and I don't believe you would have voted leave based on a toaster and vacuum cleaner. I'm sure you had reasons that are important to you and you votes in what you thought best for the country, along with the majority of workers yesterday.
I based my decision on my own studies, and ignored the newspapers as much as possible. Only time will tell if I made the right decision. There were pro's and con's on both sides of the debate. Whatever happens, no-one knows what the future holds whether we remained or left. I am a homeowner and have shares in a bank, so I am probably supposed to vote remain. However, I voted leave because I believed that would be best for my grandchildren when they are older. We may be in for a bumpy ride, but let's see where we are a couple of years down the road. My local town has not exactly prospered in recent times. We have a new Lido courtesy of Lottery funding, a nice park, a couple of decent chippies but not much else. Can't see what being a member did for us.
Interesting thing is the valleys who are supposed to get millions in EU aid voted out so they obviously don't think th EU did anything for them either?

We can agree on that point mate. This was so important and 28% of the eligible population had better things to do.

Leaving Europe will leave us isolated, vulnerable and financially and politically weaker in a turbulent world. Confusion, panic, fear, uncertainty... Could this also lead to a divided rather than United Kingdom, who knows? But what's done is done, the British public have decided to take a leap into the unknown & who knows what will happen next?

I haven't called anyone anything and made no comment on how anyone voted. Its my opinion that those with more experience of life have seen fit to subject his generation in particular to the uncertainty that he talks about.
