You guys give a lot of generalities but you never give any specifics on why brexit was good. You say you don't like EU regulations, but what regulations don't you like? Or you guys say you really want to change things in the EU and you've tried but it doesn't work, well what in the EU did you try to get change that didn't get changed?
It all seems like a big general frustration were no one really knows why their angry but they're still angry enough to vote leave even though they don't know what the general implications are going to be. All the problems that existed before like immigration, compound employment, problems with the economy and such. All those things are going to exist post leave.
>even though they don't know what the general implications are going to be I thought the general implication was not being a slave of unelected officials and their globalist policies anymore.

Stick it to the pakis and fenians

But isn't the fact that they were allowed to vote leave prove that they weren't slaves?
Lucas Evans
Because pakis come from Europe?

It has been discussed dozens of times.
>You say you don't like EU regulations, but what regulations don't you like All 50.000 of them, they strangle the economy.
>well what in the EU did you try to get change that didn't get changed? European countries held a referendum about European constitution and it just got ignored.
>All the problems that existed before like immigration Wrong, EU will not be able to force refugee quotas for example
>problems with the economy and such The EU will get a little weaker and it will offer other countries the opportunity to leave it too.
Jack Taylor
Vote only on issues they were allowed to vote on.
The EU is a shit organization.

Historic sentiments. The Brits have several centuries of "we are not part of Europe" ingrained in their frontal lobes. Anyone coming along to connect these emotions with political actions, such as a referendum, will have an easy game. I'm still surprised at how close the outcome was - but that only goes to show that times are changing and this historic sentiment will be gone one day. Not this year, not in 10, but perhaps in 100.
Imagine that through some odd circumstance, the US would be ruled under a crown - and then someone would come along offering to vote yourself out of crown authority. This is such a highly emotional topic, you'd be surfing on waves of support.
Any Brit who claims that he voted 'leave' because of reasons linked to democracy, economy, immigration etc. - it's all shit. The one and only reason is this tight emotional connection to not-so-recent history, when we used to rule the world.

MUH DEMOCRACY LMAO while whole economy is suffering. Here's a little hint, Sup Forums: politicians actually try to keep economy balanced, you trying to destroy is irrelevant. Let adults do their jobs.

>You say you don't like EU regulations, but what regulations don't you like? a lot of electrical products in the UK have been hit by the EU's energy saving drive. You can't buy certain types of lightbulbs, more powerful vacuum cleaners, etc, etc. They've also restricted the use of GM crops, which could be a huge boon to agriculture, despite the fact that they have no scientific evidence to justify this. Since I don't work in industry I don't have any specific examples of the EU interfering with productivity to hand, but a lot of those who do have said they'd be more than happy to get rid of the EU.
Brussels has shown time and again a willingness to put their extremist leftist views on the environment ahead of productivity, and indeed science.
>Or you guys say you really want to change things in the EU and you've tried but it doesn't work David Cameron tried very hard to block the appointment of Jean-Claude Juncker, on the grounds that he was a strong proponent of the type of EU integration that Britain was against. The EU appointed Junker Commission president anyway. Since then Britain's input has been ignored on a range of issues, especially migration.

If the EU regulations strangle the economy then why is Sweden and Denmark considered among the most competitive economies in the world?
The referendum is just factual incorrect, this UK ref werent ignorened and the irish one, well the irish voted no so EU took it back, changed it after listen to the irish complains and put it out again. This time the irish voted yes since the new treaty were better for Irland.
Brandon Nguyen
Even if it IS a mistake in the end, it doesn't really matter, does it? The European Union superseded the UK's agenda.
Britain's natural right to self-determination was suppressed for years. If they wanted to enact policy, it had to be measured against the EU's first. Conversely, if the EU wanted to enact bureaucratic regulations, unelected officials had virtually limitless power to do so.
Tyranny requires arbitrary power-- that is, power to act as an entity sees fit, without fear of significant reprisal. In what way does the bureaucracy of the EU not arbitrary? In what way is that even acceptable?
Britain, whether it stands or falls-- and I believe it will stand, because it's done so for longer than any other free society-- has the natural right to determine what is best for itself.
Brexit was the people realizing this, and starting to do something about it.
Oliver Morales
Do you have a specific reason why America leaving the UK was good?
Luke Diaz
Because most of Sup Forums are americans who have no idea about the EU and the other half are neets have no idea about anything?
Many of the regulations in EU are to protect the interests of each EU state inside the EU and outside from america and china.
The chinese and americans would like to dump there toxic or low quality products on the EU but they cant because of the regulations, just look at the food sections what kind of chemicals are allowed to use in China and the USA but illegal in the EU.
Also the EU is imposing import quotas on some goods to not destroys some countries economy.
Ofc there are shit tons of regulations in the EU because the EU isn't 1 country or 1 economy.
So yeah please UK now after you left , let the Chinese and Americans throw their toxic food and shit on your market lets see how the UK producers will feel about it.
Carter Cooper
>Also the EU is imposing import quotas on some goods to not destroys some countries economy. the other (more accurate) way to look at it is that the EU put a lot of tariffs on non-EU goods to protect inefficient EU businesses from competition.
For years Britain has been paying the price for the inability of industries in places like France and Spain to compete with foreign producers. Now we're finally going to be free of that.

Taken from reddit.
I voted leave out of a fundamental disagreement with the political philosophy of the European Union. I disagree with centralised government, bureaucracies, unelected officials, socialism to a degree more than necessary, the 'top down' planning of society that is a fundamental difference between Britain and our cousins on the continent, and I voted out of the political superstate that I predict coming a long way away in the future. I could go into more depth (I don't want anyone to think my reasons are shallow or without justification), but instead of investing my time and going down an off-topic rabbit hole, I would like people to grant, for the sake of argument, that my stance is a principled one worthy of sympathy.
Now, it's very hard to materialise the success or failure of voting for such reasons. I suppose it suffices to know that we as a country are now going down a fundamentally different path to the EU.
Whether or not my vote was the right one I will never live long enough to see, and it can only really be validated by the hindsight of history. I wanted to see our fate diverge from that of the EU. I made my decision on behalf of the unborn, and in a way I voted for 'Britain itself', which I have no doubt a lot will have difficulty getting their heads round. My thinking is not a two year recession, nor a five year disintegration from the EU, nor a decade long negotiation process of trade deals, nor about my pension or yours, nor about whether in the long run I will have more money in my pocket because of it. I'm thinking long, long-term. Britain is going to outlive all of us, and our children. It will be here longer than a hundred years, and given the political, economic, and national integration of the EU member states in only the last few decades, I can see what I perceive to be a major problem only getting far worse.
I'm willing to incur short-term damage in order to avoid that.

>not being slaves to a globalist organization full of unelected officials that dictate to you how to run your country regardless of your desires isn't an argument Fuck off already.
Cameron Price
lel, the Sup Forums memes have gotten to your head, son. being out of the eu doesn't mean that the UK will just stop taking in refugees, or even get rid of the ones already there.
Asher Scott
I swear to God OP, if you don't give me a source for that fucking picture, I'll write to my local MP and tell him to consider schlonging N. America and annexing the fuck out of you.

Nice projection.
People know exactly why they voted.

And why does Sweden have record youth unemployment if this works so nice?? Because it only works for the richest and others are ignored and left behind.
