Yanis Varoufakis — Another Europe is Possible #VoteIn
Video (on facebook, with subtitles). Probably the best argument for Remain that I have heard. If you're a confirmed Leave voter, don't watch. You might change your mind...

And two silly things:

If we Vote Leave...

If we Vote Remain...


Pretty please British people don't leave us with a crashed economy & Boris in charge & our rights chopped to pieces. Be Great Britain, not Little Britain.

This was glorious! I hope it all came out well. That the Brexit was left eating dust and that Britain found her sanity again...

*HUGS*

Alas, we won't know until tomorrow morning. People are still voting...

Heard about the 'breakdown' of transportation at Waterloo Station and other hubs. Unfortunately, I'm a suspicious sort and this seems all to convenient for the 'Leave' party. hope those voters get to make it to their polls - no matter what they vote. Though I'm hoping they will vote 'Remain'. Brexit is rather foolish and will be costly (and not just on the financial levels) if Britian choses to go that way. And the resulting fallout will be mass chaos across Europe...:(

*has avoided news like the plague* Well, it's not uncommon. And I think people have until 9 or 10 pm, so they should hopefully be fine.

It's leave everyone poorer...

I'm sure...just seemed fishy to me. But then, I guess that is what the media was aiming for. The late polls will help, though!

Gods, yes! Those who want to leave have been brainwashed (and scared) into thinking this is a viable solution, but in the end, it would just give the wealthier class that much more dominance and dominion over the poor. As if they don't have enough of that already. Meh.

Hopefully, the end result will be a unified, more progressive Europe. It would be about time. 40 years of hardship, trickle-down economics and poor politicking is 40 years too long.

Course, the same could be said on this side of the Pond as well.

Aye...

Not that simple. Before the Tories took over in 2008 we had Labour in charge, and yes, they were stupid with money in many ways, but - f.ex - homelessness was way, way down. Now, it's on a steady rise thanks to the Tories and their 'austerity'.

/cutting rant short, I could go on for days

Very true. That was just the jumpstart that led to this (not so slow, but highly inevitable) decline. I know a man who was made homeless. He is in a bit of a better situation now, but his case is still rather bleak. I just hope (no matter what), that it will get better.

Hee! Thee and me! And how it all parallels/mirrors our own problems here.

*headdesk*

Keeping my fingers crossed, honey...

If we'd had an Obama instead of a Cameron... *sigh*

((hugs))

And if only our world was more receptive (and ready) for the Bernie and Corbyns. But I think we're still a long way from that. But any progress forward would be good. Hopefully progress will gain momentum and surge a little faster than the decline has. ahh, but for a perfect world!

(I'd share Obama with you, but alas, it is not up to me. If only we could let you borrow him after his Presidency!)

One step forwards and two steps back... Ah well. *crosses fingers*

I hope that it goes well.

Thank you.

Thought of you this morning while watching the news… I'm sorry ♥

[elisi]

Well, the UK as we know it is over.

I mean not just culturally, but Scotland & Northern Ireland will bugger off the second they can.

And indeed, so will I!
