Yes. Jo Cox, a member of Parliament, was assassinated. Cox was a member of the Labour Party and wanted Britain to remain in the EU. When her killer was asked to identify himself in court, he answered, “My name is death to traitors, freedom for Britain.” No one knows how this will impact Thursday’s vote. But it seems possible that it will influence it in some way.
There's a lot of financially ignorant folks in the middle class as well.
I can't fathom how anyone middle class or above would vote to dissolve their investments over a few fucking immigrants. I wonder what the long con is here? East end jealous of Brussels? That's my bet.

I read it wrong, anyway. It was voters abandoning, not the party. :-[

there was already talk about doing a "negotiation" with the EU and then having a second referendum to confirm it before invoking article 50

"Immigrants are going to take our jobs", as far as my sterling analysis (:doge) goes. Not entirely unfounded, but this isn't going away once Great Britain leaves the EU. Once you start racing to the bottom, you don't stop. Guess who's going to feel this hardest?
Well thanks for the reply, bromigo! Yeah, I sorta figured all the great absinthes would be French or summit
That's England and Scotland. :doge ???
Already Scottish independence campaigners are calling for another referendum and Irish parties are calling for a United Ireland referendum.

Some levity, I guess.
If Boris Johnson looked downbeat yesterday, that is because he realises that he has lost.http://www.theguardian.com/politics/live/2016/jun/25/brexit-live-emergency-meetings-eu-uk-leave-vote#comment-77205935
Perhaps many Brexiters do not realise it yet, but they have actually lost, and it is all down to one man: David Cameron.
With one fell swoop yesterday at 9:15 am, Cameron effectively annulled the referendum result, and simultaneously destroyed the political careers of Boris Johnson, Michael Gove and leading Brexiters who cost him so much anguish, not to mention his premiership.
How?
Throughout the campaign, Cameron had repeatedly said that a vote for leave would lead to triggering Article 50 straight away. Whether implicitly or explicitly, the image was clear: he would be giving that notice under Article 50 the morning after a vote to leave. Whether that was scaremongering or not is a bit moot now but, in the midst of the sentimental nautical references of his speech yesterday, he quietly abandoned that position and handed the responsibility over to his successor.
And as the day wore on, the enormity of that step started to sink in: the markets, Sterling, Scotland, the Irish border, the Gibraltar border, the frontier at Calais, the need to continue compliance with all EU regulations for a free market, re-issuing passports, Brits abroad, EU citizens in Britain, the mountain of legistlation to be torn up and rewritten ... the list grew and grew.
The referendum result is not binding. It is advisory. Parliament is not bound to commit itself in that same direction.
The Conservative party election that Cameron triggered will now have one question looming over it: will you, if elected as party leader, trigger the notice under Article 50?
Who will want to have the responsibility of all those ramifications and consequences on his/her head and shoulders?
Boris Johnson knew this yesterday, when he emerged subdued from his home and was even more subdued at the press conference. He has been out-maneouvered and check-mated.
If he runs for leadership of the party, and then fails to follow through on triggering Article 50, then he is finished. If he does not run and effectively abandons the field, then he is finished. If he runs, wins and pulls the UK out of the EU, then it will all be over - Scotland will break away, there will be upheaval in Ireland, a recession ... broken trade agreements. Then he is also finished. Boris Johnson knows all of this. When he acts like the dumb blond it is just that: an act.
The Brexit leaders now have a result that they cannot use. For them, leadership of the Tory party has become a poison chalice.
When Boris Johnson said there was no need to trigger Article 50 straight away, what he really meant to say was "never". When Michael Gove went on and on about "informal negotiations" ... why? why not the formal ones straight away? ... he also meant not triggering the formal departure. They both know what a formal demarche would mean: an irreversible step that neither of them is prepared to take.
All that remains is for someone to have the guts to stand up and say that Brexit is unachievable in reality without an enormous amount of pain and destruction, that cannot be borne. And David Cameron has put the onus of making that statement on the heads of the people who led the Brexit campaign.

I just started buying British financial stock.

Brussels has also emphatically ruled out informal talks on a possible trade deal before the UK triggers article 50. “No notification, no negotiation,” one official said on Sunday. A diplomat added: “If they treat their referendum as a non-event, we will also treat their referendum as a non-event.”

- Spend the profits on high end British escorts
we've been carrying on as a zombie nation for god knows how long. tories defaulting to a majority, labour becoming the butt of every joke even from their base. the sovereign cash cow of the london financial district being protected at all costs while its trickle down wealth fails to reach former industrial communities that have become dumping zones for new arrivals lined with poundlands and betting shops.Old folk who've grown up alongside Thatcher have voted Leave. I wonder if George Osborne can connect those dots. I still remember his teary eyed face at her funeral. :doge
leaving the EU is not and was never the answer to any of this, despite what the tabloids bleated on about. what was required was a party in touch with the working class and solid plan to wean the country off london's teat.
My Brexit strategy:
- Invest thousands in artificially cheap British financial stock (done and will keep investing through these coming days)
- Wait a few months for it to climb up to normal (it will or close to it)
- Sell
- Spend the profits on high end British escorts

Corbyn's playing a blinder. Effectively purged his party of Blairites. True commie. :rejoice
congrats on repeating my shit joke three times over lads.
Could Britons gives me a quick rundown about Corbyn ? Because from the outside it is hard to make a clear assessment. The ridiculous amount of vitriol he got from the press when chosen as the head of the Labour really felt like he was maligned first and foremost for being an establishment outsider, even if some of the criticism was on point.
I'm fairly familiar with the rough outline (old fashioned leftist and somewhat alternative backbencher, has some internal leverage because of all the people who took a party card along with his election as the leader of Labour, etc...), just looking for a first party perspective.

The European Union will not hold informal talks with the UK until it triggers Article 50 to leave, Germany, France and Italy have insisted.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel hosted talks with French President Francois Hollande and Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi in Berlin.
The leaders called for a "new impulse" to strengthen the EU.
All three leaders voiced regret at the UK's vote to leave, with Mrs Merkel calling it a "very painful and regrettable decision".
"We are in agreement that Article 50 of the European treaties is very clear - a member state that wishes to leave the European Union has to notify the European Council," Mrs Merkel told the joint news conference at the German chancellery.
"There can't be any further steps until that has happened. Only then will the European Council issue guidelines under which an exit will be negotiated.
"That means that, and we agree on this point, there will be neither informal nor formal talks on a British exit until the European Council has received the [UK's] request for an exit from the European Union."
President Hollande and Prime Minister Renzi emphasised the need to process the UK's exit as quickly as possible and focus on the challenges facing the remaining 27 states such as fighting terrorism and strengthening the borders.
"Our responsibility is not to lose time in dealing with the question of the UK's exit and the new questions for the 27," Mr Hollande said. "There is nothing worse than uncertainty."
"On the one hand we are sad but it is also the right time to write a new page in European history on what unites us," said Mr Renzi.
