Al Massey Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 When it dropped after the vote, remainers said it was due to the vote and a sign of things to come and leavers said it was because it was over valued anyway. That's all I'm saying. The Bank of England and in particular Mark Carney get criticised in every decision or comment they make about the economy by leavers and that they're untrustworthy that Carney isnt British! .. its just comical. The Bank of England and the IMF stated it was over inflated. The drop after the vote was because people weren't doing their jobs and the market plummeted. It then stabilised, FTSE 100 and 250 then rose to higher levels than before the vote. Then the media started the uncertainty scare mongering. Fuel prices went up which aided towards the drop in the pound. Funny how when fuel prices were up to £1.35 a ltr in 2011 wasn't down to the vote, and neither was the pound being low many times in previous years. And it's even more funny how before the vote, anything the Bank of England or IMF said was taken as gospel by remainers, but after the vote remainers don't listen to them. And yes I see the irony that most leave voters were the other way around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonga Spar Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 The thing I find funny is that Cameron made the referendum legally binding when parliament made it law to hold a referendum and stated, verbally numerous times and on official publications paid for by the tax payer, "The government will implement what you decide." And I loved the comment earlier how "leavers" will claim the pound was over inflated. So the bank of England and the IMF were leavers? Fairly sure they were remainers and part of the fear factor. I would call them remoaners, but they seem to be the only ones that lost the vote who are actually doing something about the economy and making Brexit work better. Maybe we should all just sit in the corner and cry till we get our own way on everything? I'm still yet to meet somebody that voted leave who actually has a job. They seem to be either retired or on the dole. Helping the economy of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Massey Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 I'm still yet to meet somebody that voted leave who actually has a job. Let alone involved in the cleanup. I voted leave, I have a job. I used to serve my country in the army for many years. I'm also highly educated and now work in the science sector, collaborating with the world, and we are not reliant on the EU at all for that either. I also own my own home, well on mortgage. I have a son, I have various other debts. Things are tight at the moment, but I'd vote leave again in a heart beat. So what's your point?

Wonga Spar Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Mate, I really don't care. The day I meet and have a conversation with somebody who has a job and voted leave, I'll let you know. Until then, my point isn't retarded, it isn't anything. It's an observation. If you'd like to look at statistics that explore education/vote and age/vote that's your prerogative (wouldn't recommend it), but you can preach what you want, where you want, to whom you want. I don't care. The country is in a total mess, and every educated person I look up to unanimously agree it's a disgrace (and also voted remain).

j_jza80 Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 I just spent £49,000 getting a degree, Millions of young people across the Mediterranean EU states may never work. Youth unemployment is at 50% in some areas. Presumably you wouldn't object to someone else paying £50k for your education? Or is it that you don't think you'd tutors and uni deserve paying? have absolutely 0% chance of owning a house by the time I'm 30. Why do you think that is? Look at the what happened to house prices after Labour came to power in 1997. In some areas they quadrupled under Labour. My ability to move freely around Europe is on countdown, some of my friends will likely be unable to stay in the country if they don't marry. being able to just live wherever you want is utterly unsustainable. It's bad for public services, infrastructure, housing, and the environment. Freedom of movement causes saturation of the Labour labour markets of wealthy countries, and 'brain drain' in the poorer ones. The only people who gain by this kind of ''free for all' globalisation are multinational companies. Theres a person running the country that nobody voted for. We don't elect prime ministers, we elect parties. The Tories won, they had the referendum in their manifesto, so this was all mandated. The only issue was Cameron scurrying off like a coward when he lost. Sterling has never been more worthless. Did they teach you about the great depression or the aftermath of ww2 while you were at uni? Or various other points during the 20th century when it was worth much less. British exporters that are too small to be safe are about to be hit head-on by a perfect storm of uncertain futures, legislative brick walls and financial disaster. Some business will suffer, some will flourish. Our current growth is being fuelled by a boom in exports because of the currency. I only saw tge other day that Ultima were offering US customers a 20% discount on some models because the sterling was making them so much more competitive.

Al Massey Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 I'm also waiting for you blame Brexit on the fact you paid £49,000 on a degree and won't be able to buy your own home before your 30. Come on, please blame the vote on that too lol There's always a person running the country that the public didn't vote for. No one in the public votes for a prime minister. Sterling has actually been worse many many times before. But keep using your expensive degree to talk absolute shite on things you clearly know nothing about. So glad you only look up to your educated remain voting friends. Oh and small British exporters have legislative brick walls now, it's called the EU. Jeez, did you learn anything? Maybe you should have saved your £49K and spent it more wisely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You seem to think everyone who voted out was jobless and dumb. Your a small minded plank just because you and your high educated buddies all have jobs and all voted in then the out voted must be the opposite!! And... it was you that brought up home ownership, and what you spent on education as if it was all the brexits fault! I was merely pointing out that, shock horror, I voted out AND have a job etc...
