Brexit Day has arrived

I have already voted and unlike my belly button, I'm an outy!! For me it's mostly about the fact that EU laws are made by an un-elected commission making it an extremely undemocratic organisation. I believe the term "punished" has been used from within the EU as to what must be done to the UK if we decide to leave. Not really much of a place to be if the best way to prevent people from leaving is to threaten to punish them. I'm all for free trade agreements but I really don't see why we have to be the political playthings of an unelected group to achieve that. Even Len McCluskey said that the expansion of the EU to incorporate Eastern European countries was a massive economic experiment at the expense of the ordinary working man. And why do so many big businesses want us to stay in? Simple! Easy access to a cheap labour force! I find it strange that so many 'remain' supporters I know are so anti-globalisation yet the creeping homogenisation of European countries is a sure fire way to ensure globalisation continues apace.

For no apparent reason, the stock exchanges index are up this morning. We still know nothing and we will know nothing until tomorrow. If you exit, we will be two among the European countries not to be part of the Union and to have our own currency.

the devastation the result has caused is making many pro-leave voters regret what they did - we need a time machine now more than ever

England is at a critical point of it's history. With all governments leaning toward socialism and the influx of illegal immigrant 'so called refugees', I think it's high time Britain looked out for Herself. Best of luck and God's Blessing.

I watched as the EU treated Greece so shamefully. What arrogance! What bullying! As an American my sayso carries no weight whatsoever, but I'd love to see the EU crumble. I like Europe with individual countries with their own currency and controlling their own destinies.

And at least half the world will be watching with you! History could start to be rewritten on this day.

i wonder how many filipinos are qualified to vote there and what their preference would be.

Well I have been and casted my vote. It was only a fluke that I noticed as we were on our way to our usual polling station that we noticed they had moved it. I may have a suspicious mind but it made me even more determined to cast my vote. I have never had to queue in my life to vote so this was a surprise which just showed how the populace were interested in doing the right thing!

I hope it goes well.

How is it? Heard it just over the news yesterday

I hope the outies win but I'm pretty sure remain will win.

I hope it goes the way you hoped it would. The financial world is in a frenzy here today.

I think this voting will be larger than any PM election.

I am aware of the term as the news is being covered extensively in my morning paper, but it doesn't really affect me much. The news about Jo Cox's murder is a shocking and unwanted part of it for all sane people. Also , because the media like to play with words there was a "Rexit " news for India which had greater significance for Indians.

Well I am no political expert therefore I cannot say a word on this and the news is saying "are the British In or Out?" time will tell - I see the pound is a little down on the RAND exchange today, but not much

Oh, I think I miss the news about Brexit for I have no idea about it. Well, the word Brexit catch my attention for it is a nice name for a pet dog.

I hope Britain stays because I think there will be economic problems if they leave, but who knows, I'm waiting to see what the results are.
