The 17m represents roughly 25% of the population and they are dying off guesstimates up to 1m? already gone,by the time Brexit pans out in a couple of years another 2m gone that 17m will be down to say 13m doesn't look good for your longed for revolution,plus the useless Jeremy will be history and with the Tory party disintegrating and splitting the right vote it will be wide open for the left to fill the vacuum.Careful what you wish for.
I wouldn't be surprised if the remainers died off in similar
numbers, quite upsetting to think of really, he he.

1 hour ago, tebee said:Brexit was screwed as soon as leave were able to promise the undeliverable "we'll be better off afterwards brexit" in the referendum campaign.
No possible brexit is going to live up to those promises - It's just a case of how soon people realize this. Whatever sort of brexit happens people are going to be disappointed in it.
Just look now at the number of leavers who now say - we always said brexit would be painful and you'd end up worse off - they didn't. Those who say that have very selective memories.
The reality is that no-one should lose.
The UK joined the EU because it was uncompetitive,
it still is, sheltering under Mutti's corsets is too comfy.
Leaving the EU should kick-start innovation and
competition. In a sensible world the government should
support business, but thats another issue.
I never voted, but listening to the debate here I do favour
Brexitating, its not so pessimistic as the remain camp.

May's aim is to produce a illusion for the electorate,
in the same way its been done all through history.

The Tory minister is a twit.
The art in negotiation should be to convince everyone
thinks that they have the biggest portion of the pie.
so everyone wins.

I think a Malthusian catastrophe is unlikely. Birth rate drops as economies improve.
Economic improvement will not affect the majority.
Perhaps you've heard of the UK austerity, in the 5th.
or 6th of the richest countries in the world.
The world birth rate is approx 2.4 per family.
Birth rate drops when food is scarce.
A simple example: When bugs on an isolated petri dish
have consumed the nutrients, reproduced millions
and, oops, reached the edge of the dish.
What happens? Answer: They are b=ggered.

We now have a totally different set of conditions. Most frightening is the threat to world peace that global warming will present; we've already had a small taster this year with extreme weather conditions. The fact is even if we as a world stopped carbon emissions tomorrow, the world we know will face an existential crisis. I can see pandemics, and plagues. I can well see population reduced to millions, if any at all. I've always regarded Brexit as a sideshow.
Spot on. By 2050 the world population reaches 10billion
and food becomes a problem. One child per family,
like the Chinese did, leading to self sufficiency economy,
recommended by Rama 9.
I expect the Americans will handle most of the population
culling, it is they that made the Georgia Stones.

What have we got here:
Disgusting Conflict of Interest: Theresa May’s Husband’s Investment Firm Made a “Financial Killing” from the Bombing of Syria
Headline from GR.
With the thought of the EU army, Mrs. Mays nipples must be on stalks, with the expectation of hubby flogging his load of lovely missiles.
So lads that's the outcome..Looks like Brexit, quacks like a Brexit,
But it ain't.

2 minutes ago, sandyf said:If trading all around the world was so beneficial then many more UK companies would already be involved. The fact is trade barriers such as distance, finance and language are an major impediment to most UK business, and those barriers are not going to go away outside the EU.
It is also blatantly obvious that many companies just cannot compete with a local supplier. Those that have taken the plunge may well sell at breakeven and look to the domestic market to maintain profit levels. As perverse as it sounds exporting can push prices up in the UK.
There is no dispute that trading with other countries outside EU regulation will be of significant benefit to certain sectors but of little benefit to Joe public, of course pigs may take to the air and profits go to the essential services.
Theresa May has often been likened to Margaret Thatcher, remember the son Mark.
The Mathew Hedges case should be a warning to some of the dangerous path they want to choose.
The Chinese don't have a problem with language or distance.
GB never had that problem either when it was Great.
Don't worry Sandy, I have little doubt, the UK will be known as
the SCE.. ie. Stupid Colony of Europe.
I bet, the day after the referendum it was all decided by the
ruling, plotting, scumbags.

1 hour ago, JAG said:I believe she was, as Home Secretary, known as "The Submarine". At the first sign of trouble she would go deep and rig for silent running.
She did well to survive that long at the Home Office. If you look at her predecessors' casualty rate! The job entails being the fall guy for just about every domestic UK problem. Whilst lacking somewhat in the charisma stakes (Blair and Cameron had it by the bucketloads and look where it has got us) she is undoubtedly a wily operator.
Not well served by her party though...
But somehow the £1.2billion HMS Astute managed to run aground yesterday.
The Royal Navy super-sub's rudder got stuck in mud and shingle off the Isle of Skye after venturing into the entrance of a shallow bay to take crew aboard.
Stuck high and dry, she languished there under the bemused gaze of locals as red-faced top brass waited anxiously for the tide to rise.

I wonder just how many remainers we will have defecting to the leave side after the discovery of amendment 586.
If you have a Birth Certificate you unwittingly became
property of the State and used as collateral for trading
on the Stock Exchange. Whether page 586 is true or false,
I would not be surprised either way.

You are absolutely correct there. But I never need to show
signs of wealth. I drive around in an old Citroen 2cv I bought
for 60 GBp 14 years ago, or an old G wagen full of rubbish..
great fun.

I inherited a gold Patek Philippe a few years ago.
The first time I wore it, someone said 'Is that one
of those cheap copies from Thailand'.
Never wore it again, only keep for memories.

9 hours ago, Grouse said:Because Farage will retain freedom of movement he doesn't give a damn about everybody else. I'm alright jack.
As you know I have already sorted out my own situation but it is a tragedy for others
Can you really not see that?
That's interesting, let me get this straight, you have
attempted to subvert a democratic vote for your own
convenience, isn't that a case of, 'I prefer to be alright
Jack, sod the majority'.
Surprisingly ungentlemanly behavior from the Grouse
we love.
Grouse on Laocow?

I wish the UK well.
But I have a feeling that it will be a hard hard place to be for many in years to come.
Not that it will be alone.
There is a change in international attitudes that despite the platitudes is increasingly regressive in terms of core social and humanitarian outcome.
Having sucked the lemon dry where now to find the source of........?
Good point, the worlds resources are limited, things will be
more expensive due to diminishing returns of acquisition,
plus environmental care will require economic contraction.
The UK will be in a bad place as it is not able to support
itself now. Land of hope and forget the glory.
Keep sucking that lemon buddy

Disclaimer: before anyone applies 'Brexit Logic' to this post, I am not saying, nor even implying, that all Leave voters were or are demented.
If you were in a dangerous situation, would you take the advice of an old man, or a young man fresh out
of uni with a degree in basket weaving or
theoretical quantum physics?
By the way, do you have any stats on demented youngsters?
