It's actually quite good for Britain in the long run. Economists say Britain already lost dozens of millions of Dollars from that decision alone, but predict that they will get rid of a couple of economic tumours in the long run. They also now sparked the Welsh/Scottish segregation once again, as both Wales and Scotland overwhelmingly voted to STAY in EU.
Let's not talk about how many people in Britain hate kebabs and blame them for the entire situation in EU.
Man oh man, I need to get my popcorn.

yeah this brexit shit will fly over to NL as well, considering we've gotta vote again in early 2017 and the party on top (by quite a margin) in the polls atm is run by a person who's vehemently against the EU.

Am hoping this uproar will force Britain to reconsider and hold a revote

>Croatia mocks Serbia about it never entering the EU
>Croatia enters EU in 2015
>Britain leaves EU
>Croatian government falls yesterday
>Croatia "reconsidering to leave EU as well"
Stronk Croatian politics, much wow.
Speaking of stronk politics, the fall of the government in Croatia means they will now go full radical (anti Serbian) once again, and knowing how shit is done over here, I can expect some serious tensions between the two countries in the next 4 years.

people fucked themselves over by believing politicians and then politicians admitted they lied
that's about it
there's already an official petition with 100k votes (so needs to be discussed) to hold a revote as the vote wasn't really anywhere near a majority and less than 75% of folks voted, plus not hours after the result was announced the leave campaigners admitted the reasons they presented were pulled out of their arse
there's a fucking voice actor that just made ksg's exact 'creepy drunk hobo' voice in this cartoon and that is a bit scary

Not only did they fuck over themselfes but caused a worldwide stockcrash. Literally everyones economy got slapped thanks to this.
This is why you dont let the common folk decide such things. We'll see if Britain can recover. If they do, good on them. If they dont... Good on the EU i guess.

EU REFERENDUM SOCIAL EXPERIMENT (GONE WRONG)
In all seriousness, I quite fear for the universities in the UK now. A majority of the research funds from the EU are given to the UK, allowing scientists from all over the world to work there and it allows universities to perform and study various research programs. If that's going to drop, those funds will most likely go to France (and maybe Swiss and/or NL) and that will significantly hinder the top schools in the UK. I always saw Oxford, Cambridge and London as the top schools, this will most likely shift towards the schools in Zürich and Paris now.

Cambridge and Oxford has long, traditionally been the top universities way before the concept of the EU even existed; I don't see how it would change. In terms of UCL, I'd have to ask my friends from UCL if it did have any major impact on their university.
And to Tupsu and Granger. Leaving the EU has for a long time been a demand for many prestiged economists and politicians and if you studied an ounce of economics in UK you'd know that the short term loss of leaving the EU has always been known, but the long term advantages have always been outstandingly better. The votes to leave were made by the more-than-smarter-than-average and more-than-economically-aware individuals. More than anything, the propaganda to stay in the EU was off the roof. Anyone not in the right of mind voted to stay in but thankfully the majority of the people that didn't have a clue about economics just opted to not vote at all.

Gladi mate, I consider you above those children, so if you disagree feel free to discuss it with me, but I firmly believe that the decision to leave EU was the best thing to happen to Britain in years. Yes, when you look at it currently, the decision to leave EU has left the Bank of England in tatters, with everyone crying how everything will go to shit, however, don't EVER underestimate Britain's ability to come back on its feet. The same kind of shit happened in 2011 if I remember correctly, and no one apart from the analysts gave a rat's ass about it - not even the Bank of England itself.
To recover from all of this, Bank of England will merely use the old quantitative easing trick and everything will be about the same as it was the day before Britain left.
The only reason you hear all of this negative shit is because people who have absolutely no idea about how economy works and people who have never even studied it commenting the most ridiculous things simply because their favourite Tumblr person or politician (who is totally not biased towards Britain being in EU) said something negative about it.
You even see it here on Tuuba. People with no insight in this topic predicting the end of the world.
Yeah, it's true that most of the Commonwealth nations won't take this shit very kindly and it will hurt them in the long run, but who the shit cares, Britain will recover from it in max 5 years. You take a certain risk by being in someone's economic sphere of influence, and accept both the good and the bad possible outcomes of it.
