hmm yeah fishermen might be better off but the fish stocks won't be. And I'm sure we won't be "wasting money" on encouraging farmers to use wildlife friendlier measures any more (austerity in/after the war was what did for all the meadows in the first place). Ugh it's all so sad, all for the sake of little englishers to have their unreflective moment of glee. Everywhere I go at the moment I keep glaring at people thinking 'it was you wasn't it, you voted out you bastard' :) I can't help it.

"Unless the Tories suddenly grow consciences." hah I expect the usual will be along soon to tell us that people don't need consciences and we should all shut up. Ah well. The trouble with the tories is they won't do anything unless they see a direct and immediate benefit to themselves. My dear deluded extremely rich right wing friend, when asked about his motivations for voting in the referendum, said "Well I can only vote for myself", which actually summed up everything you need to know. I said "Well actually no, you could vote for the benefit of this country" but he either didn't want to or didn't get it. We may now kiss goodbye all those bits of farmers' land that they've been paid to encourage wildlife on. And I'm afraid we haven't got any money for looking after archaeology (despite these people loving their 'heritage') - this is Austerity, people, come on. oh I must stop ranting

I think there was definitely a contingent who voted leave as a protest without thinking they would actually win, and are now bricking themselves. I don't know what they thought they were voting in - the Eurovision Song Contest?!

Maybe if it was re-run today it would be different. Or if 16 and 17 year olds had been able to vote in England. I think 16 and 17 year olds should definitely have been allowed to vote. After all, it's their generation who are going to have to deal with the long-term repercussions.
