Didn't take the BBC long to come out with "Frexit" either. I was expecting at least a week.... didn't even manage a day!! Ewww, hated the term 'Brexit' personally so had hoped we heard the last of that now  |

Ewww, hated the term 'Brexit' personally so had hoped we heard the last of that now "Brexit" only grew out of "Grexit" when we all assumed Greece was getting the boot (remember this? Don't hear much about Greece now do we?!). Presumably the UK media outlets could make it fit any country in the circumstances |

Well my number one ambition following this whole nonsense would be to stick Boris into one of his pieces of s*** he crapped out for London on a hot and humid day and let him suffer the consequences, right now his name sickens me to the stomach. PM...really?! |

I just thought that we had seen the last of Boris after getting rid of him from City Hall and now we have the threat of him returning, but to Downing Street   I'm a Tory and I'd never vote for this lard head as leader  |

I voted to remain. Anyway, much to everyone's disappointment negativity will get us no where, there is no room for pessimism and the best thing to do is be optimistic right now. We just need to accept it and move on, we have a lot at stake and we should hope and work for a brighter future for Britain now that we're out of the EU. The negativity is getting extremely annoying to read on facebook. I imagine a lot of the younger generation would have voted remain but the older who experienced life before we got in the EU would have voted leave. Lets try it and im happy the vote leave won. [EDIT] The other thing that is annoying me is vote leavers being branded racists, how can that be true we arent going to start deporting every single non british born person are we? Its just to control our borders better and not have the EU dictating that we have to let a certain figure in |

Nicola Sturgeon is working to make another Scottish Referendum a reality, and chances are that if there is one Scotland would split away from England. Should that happen David Cameron and the EU referendum will have legacies as splitting the UK apart.

I favour Britain remaining in the European Union, for various reasons really. During our time in the Common Market and European Union, several work directives from the Social Chapter have helped us. These included the maximum 48-hour week for non-essential services, 20 days' paid holiday and paternity leave rights. Also, the variety of food especially from Europe has improved. We can work with other European countries for the good of the environment, defence, imports & exports through the Single Market and more. It also makes for better relations with other European governments and citizens in general. With so much good coming from our membership of the EU, long may it continue!  There was apparently a poll stating that 73% of Londoners favour us staying in the EU. Mind you, the apparently most Eurosceptic borough in the country, Havering, is in Greater London, but the furthest borough from central London. I even remember the spoof Channel 4 drama last year with a UKIP MP for Romford East! It does go to show how seriously 'Joe Public' took this referendum. Looking thru' todays papers, the turn out ranged from the high 60's to the low 80's |

I see that most of the leavers have admitted that all that we have been promised in their manifesto cannot be carried out. So I've voted for light bulbs and bananas |
