    a confidant statement of intent to " open borders and trade with the World AND Europe". Would get it rising again.

    Our biggest problem now , is there may be a too long period of stagnation and decline , while the conservatives fanny around with internal power struggles and choosing a new leader/ policy.

    I take the view that this is a great opportunity to get out there and sell , sell , sell. And Europe realy needs to engage with this , or their economies will be far worse off too.

    So, let's just watch our elected representatives completely miss the point and carry on with their petty internal squabbles !!!
    Exactly - Now is the time for all politicians in the UK to earn their corn, but no, it will all be about positioning themselves to survive and stay on board the gravy train. It is also going to be a good few years before we actually leave the EU, if we ever do...

    Not just a question of cost though. How are they going to issue 30 million (roughly) new passports in 3-4 years?

    I have two passports, so the better get working on it and give me them for free and Boris Joghnson pays out his own pocket for the (up to) 65 million passports

    Speaking of travel, will we need visa to hit mainland Europe now. If so does that mean transit visa to connect at Schipol, Frankfurt etc.

    Another thing I was thinking, take my old job. Fast response flying squad(like numerous other countries have), the purpose to fly out to jobs within 24 hours to fix break downs etc abroad and offshore, it was a huge earner for the company. I did my fair share on the mainland, Germany and Italy in particular. Will this be possible when the "Brexit" happens. "Aye sorry pal, we would be with you if we could but we need to apply for a visa for our guy and that will take 5 working days, hud tight min"

    Once again Scotland gets a decision that it didn't vote for.

    As a whole, not it didn't. As part of the United Kingdom, technically it did. Im seeing so many people on social media greeting about the vote, but had voted No in the referendum. Tough ****e on those lot im afraid. They are quite happy to be in a union when it suits their agenda, but are unwilling to accept a democratic vote for the union when it goes against their beliefs.

    You now have a four way problem. You have those who voted Out and want indy, those who Voted out and don't want indy, those who voted in and want indy and finally those who voted in and don't want indy. Its a mess. I voted Out last night and I stand by that decision, however I also supported independence.

    What gets my back up is folk (not on here) accusing me of being some right wing nationalist, wanting to see Nigel and his crew tearing foreigners from there homes, just because I voted out. I couldn't disagree with Farages views anymore if I tried. He is a moron and a down right Xenophobic cuunt. I voted for completely different reasons and I stand by them.

    The demographics of the Brexit vote should surprise noone. I wouldn't have let the over 70s vote. They've pulled us out, and it won't affect them one bit.

    In the Old days you`d hurl up to a Border point anywhere in Europe, join the Q. Show your passport, and they`d wave you through. On the nether regions of Europe they`d stamp it. But thats all. Nae bother. It`ll just be the same. We all show our passports coming in and out of UK even now anyway ?
