I hope this means he'll stop being invited on to every political TV show and debate. It would be nice if he were to disappear for public life properly

Unbelievable approach to planning and prioiritsing resources.

I agree with Healey for what it's worth.

...will anyone notice the difference?

Voting to leave, really isn't voting for anything. It's voting against something. That is literally all the disparate bunch of miscreants leading the leave campaign had in common with each other - the fact that they didn't like the EU. Well fine, but that is like travelling in a plane that is uncomfortable and expensive and has a stop off you would prefer not to have to make and so saying "i don't like this", opening the door and jumping out. It's clear that they all have wildly different (although universally half formed) ideas about what would happen next. It's really not good enough. Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson is today berating the government for not having a plan for what would happen post-Brexit. Do none of the Leavers feel that perhaps they should have been thinking about next moves before encouraging us to all jump from that plane?

The markets rallied after it became clear that no one was going to hit the Article 50 button anytime soon. Once that does happen expect further market shock. Of course no one can predict the future with certainty, but if the UK doesn't fall into recession in the near future, I'll be (pleasantly) surprised. The falling pound, whilst potentially good for exporters, can only really have a negative impact generally, on an economy which relies far more on imports.

What's with the fireworks?

A two-bed flat above an M&S, leasehold?! Who's going to pay ?750K for that?

Can someone send a bus out with, "demand a second referendum and everyone gets a unicorn that shits candy and cries lemonade" written on it? We'll soon have this thing sorted.

Apparently Johnson is favourite for next PM and he is ruling out a snap election. I have to say, I consider this a coup. What mandate will be have? I cannot accept that self serving, dishonest and ruthless man as Prime Minister. But what can we do? This country has lost its mind.

Generally proud to be a Londoner. The Brexit vote is unbelievable. I am amazed that there are still people who think it was / is a good idea.

I would never stop being friends (or fall out with family members), because of how they'd voted. But if I was just meeting someone / didn't know them yet, and they said "isn't it great that we have taken back control" or some such, I probably would politely move along.

One of the things which really does piss me off, is the flippant response by many in the leave camp to the financial fall out. It effects real people, in real life. I've already know people who have been told to expect job losses at their firms. It looks likely that there will be a recession, which will mean that kids leaving school or college in the next few years may struggle to break in to the job market. That can have an impact over your whole career and lifetime earning potential. It's no small thing.

Yes, please stop winging. It's not like there's some kind of entirely avoidable political, social and economic catastrophe engulfing the country. Bloody moaners.

a quote from that article linked to above: "Initial figures show an increase of 57% in reported incidents between Thursday and Sunday compared with the same days four weeks earlier, the National Police Chiefs? Council said ? 85 incidents were reported compared with 54 during the earlier period. ?It?s no coincidence this has come off the back of the EU vote,? said a police source. Senior police chiefs have discussed how to respond amid concerns the continuing heated debate may contribute to heightened tensions.

The police, as well as the prime minister seem to have acknowledged an increase in racist attacks and linked it to 'Brexit'. People can pretend there is no link if they like. We are in 'post fact' Britain now after all. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2016/jun/27/sadiq-khan-muslim-council-britain-warning-of-post-brexit-racism

Forget it, we're 'post fact' now.

Many people warned that the type of rhetoric employed by the leave camp was very dangerous and would embolden those on the extreme right. It's incredibly sad. Farage should had his head in shame.

This country has shot itself in both feet.

On this I agree with Fox. The decision has been made, the chips will fall where they may. We will all have to live with the consequences as will our children.
