We are fed up of Scotland, and their whining. Give 'em another vote, and let them go if that's what they want. Apparently nationalists in northern Ireland, which voted majority remain, are asking for a referendum to rejoin southern Ireland. Let them go as well, if they wish.

It'll save England carrying the financial load helping to support them. England will still have over 50 million people - we'll be just fine in the long run. This is England we're talking about here, not some tin pot dictatorship.

David Cameron resigning with departure goal of October. He's jumping off the train before it jumps any tracks.

Spot on. Can't rep you again.

Good. Hopefully his Chancellor, Osborne won't be long going behind him. That arrogant SOB tried to scare the British people. He needs to be in the same cab as Cameron.

So now you want to declare war on UK or what...I consider your comments ridiculous. Besides being the right thing to do, trading with the UK and not putting them at the back of the que as you and Odummy want to do is good business.

Looking forward to conducting some business with the British. I figure by next week if the pound vs. the dollar tracks like it has for the past few hours I can purchase a Aston Martin DB11 for 500 bucks and bag of Jelly Babies. Including floor mats.

Well, it's no surprise the British economy has crashed and investor confidence won't be regained any time soon.

Well done, idiots... you've added even more instablity to an already destablized Europe and ruined your economy, which of course effects all of the other economies in the world as well.

Interesting, the UK wants to move slowly but the EU leaders are saying no, let's do this fast.
