    How will this affect your portfolio. Despite large losses at opening the FTSE 100 closed today higher than it was at the beginning of the week.

    And even the comment about racism is inaccurate because even Labour spokespeople (except Corbyn) acknowledge that something needs to be done to address the huge influx from mainly low skilled workers from the EU encouraged by companies such as Next who advertise jobs in Eastern Europe because of the low wages they can pay. Furthermore the present arrangements discriminate between EU migrants and those who want to come here from elsewhere and that is probably more racist than the present arrangements.

    Why engage in personal insults? There's no need. The entire thread before you was good-natured despite obvious divisions.

    my point was you said you were unsure of moving to or being part of a country with, in your opinion so many racists,

    Wonderfully arrogant O/P! "You didn't vote in line with my beliefs which are the correct ones, so you are a 'thicko'! "
    Some British people know a bit more about it having been around for more than 5 minutes. I voted 'IN' in 1975 because I saw us prospering in a free trade arrangement called the EEC. The EEC then morphed into a political construct, the EU that tries to control every aspect of our lives from what light bulbs we can use, how powerful are our vacuum cleaners and more importantly prevents us from deporting murderous scumbags. The ambition is to integrate more and more into a United States of Europe using a single currency that has been a total disaster and especially for the youth of Europe. Check out youth unemployment rates in Greece and Spain for starters. We now have the opportunity to take back our sovereignty and determine our own future. You watch Sweden, France, Spain, Holland, Czech Republic and Greece follow us out the door . Within a few years the UK will be at the head of a group of at least 6 or 7 nations, all committed to free trade and economic integration but opposed to political centralisation.

    As I said, with the majority of others, I voted 'IN' once before. To quote The Who:
    We "Won't Get Fooled Again". Great day for the UK - onward and upward!

    You've betrayed your arrogance actually. Why should the UK be at the head of anything? You voted out. Now go it alone like you wanted. The EU doesn't control every facet of anyone's life. You're clearly deluded as well.

    That's their own problem for voting Tory.

    Because we're the 5th largest economy in the world, converse in the world's most popular language, have the fastest growing economy in Europe and are a hugely talented and resourceful nation.

    You obviously don't think so, because you don't even live here. I might be deluded but at least I live and experience what I'm talking about.

    Ah, the good old, 'no one should tell us what to do, we should be telling them'. this attitude should have died years ago.

    Laughable. Given the choice would you live in the US or UK under your own stated criteria of being "hugely talented and resourceful"? Yeah right that would be the US. But that's not why I live in the US. Please tell me about all the talent and resourcefulness I'm missing.

    You voted for Leave. It's pure delusional arrogance to expect anyone to follow you. It's completely apparent that a lot of Leave supporters just plain don't like foreigners. Put up some barbed wire chum and enjoy Jerusalem built anew.

    Speaking of thickies....

    'I really regret my vote now': The Brexit voters who wish they'd voted to remain

    http://www.standard.co.uk/news/polit...-a3280361.html

    More than 17.4 million people across the UK voted Leave in the EU referendum, while 16.1 million voted to remain in the EU. But many voters have since spoken out saying they are shocked at the poll's outcome and did not believe their Leave votes would actually count.

    One voter, named only as Adam from Manchester, told the BBC: “I didn’t think that was going to happen. My vote – I didn’t think was going to matter too much because I thought we were just going to remain."

    Another voter, Mandy, said: “I was very disappointed about the result, even though I voted to leave, this morning I woke up and the reality did actually hit me. But if I had the opportunity to vote again, it would be to stay.”

    Other voters have also posted on Twitter that they regretted their decision to vote in favour of leaving the EU. One said: “I personally voted leave believing these lies and I regret it more than anything, I feel genuinely robbed of my vote.”

    Another posted: “Urm I think I kinda regret my vote, I had no real reason to pick what I did!!”

    UK doesn't seem very wealthy in $ terms. In GDP per capita even before the GBP crash the UK ranked around 24th behind Germany, Iceland, Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Belgium, Nertherlands, Switzerland, Austria etc ...

    Hang on a sec, you seem an intelligent person and, like so many other such people over the past four months, have let us have the benefit of your unshakeable conviction that your side of the argument was the only way for the country to go. Yet there were plenty of intelligent people on the other side who were equally convinced as to their cause - in a way, I envy you your certainty, but isn't the truth that you're both right in some regards, wrong in others and, like us mere mortals, having to guess what the next decade or two holds for the country?

    For example, like so many in the leave campaign, you talk about how we've got the fifth best economy in the world, but I look at that stat and wonder how could this be when we belonged to this dreadful bureaucracy which imposed it's will on us, stifled our nation and made it so easy for workshy foreigners to come here and claim our benefits?

    Congratulations to Rupert Murdoch, Prime Minister of the U.K. once again - and no longer answerable to the EU.
