The United Kingdom votes to leave the failed Social experiment known as the EU. This is an historic day in world politics and the global economy. How long until the others in Western Europe decide to leave?

I really didn't think they would do it. Good for them!

The TPP would be as bad for our sovereignty as the EU was for theirs.

I thought they got to vote. I didn't see it as a miss peak aim sure the people he ran into we're excited and Scotland is part of the U.K. So it's like landing in Columbus and saying 'They are going wild here over the Cavs win'
Great lines pointing out how HRC got it wrong again and 'the will of the people'. Possible a shot across the bow foray Convention shenanigans

Time to find some good deals on the markets. I think we'll put the rest of our trip on credit card when we get back to London rather than spending our pounds we bought back in April.

he congratulated scotland on voting to take back its own country when in reality it voted to not leave the EU. In actuality they will probably leave the UK and rejoin the EU by themselves. this is where he's kind of stupid. most will use things like columbus vs cleveland to justify but really it just smacked of dumb.

but on the flipside there are also people saying who cares that hillary omitted tons of meetings with donors from her SOS calendar...it was just a clerical error!

ok. I see the distinction now. It's a pretty fine point. Sort of like thanking Texas for voting for Obama. Ha

In paris currently. People being snide about how this is going to destroy England s economic growth. Claiming the EU has no affect on nations sovereignty and is only beneficial

Blaming rich old white people for resisting change

I think this is a Nationalist version of Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead. The other Countries are comfortable in their mediocrity

There are so many parallels between Atlas Shrugged and our present state today.

We're back in England, and other than using the credit card rather than the cash (0 foreign transaction fees plus more favorable exchange rate currently), its business as usual in London. Most are pretty confident they'll find a way to succeed, one way or the other.

As for Medic being Mr. ATrain, he's not tall enough.

Everything about Munich is cool. But just try to find a vegetable to eat with your choice of meats.
