Is it bad that as a foreigner I'm hoping for a lower pound so I can go back and visit?

I'm not as anxious as previously but TMay needs to secure a trade deal and freedom of movement needs to be a priority.  

These next 2 years are going to be challenging...

If GBP crashes and burns then I'm jumping off a cliff

My island had absolutely no say in brexit but everything will affect us, from the exchange rates to trade deals 

[Pray4FameGa 3,141]

I'm here for brexit.

I don't know why people are so emotionally invested in a political union that only holds us back.

I'm shitting my pants because I'm Italian and moved to London for uni last year, and was planning on staying and building a life here. We'll see lol

I just find it funny that something important like this is effectively left up to PEOPLE. Lmao most people don't know **** and that's the truth. Easily swayed and especially online by actual fake news these days. 

 

Many early philosophers and scholars argued that the idea of a full democracy was **** because the "average" person was not informed enough to vote from a place of confidence  Some even argued that by the nature of having to be a citizen (get a job, and support your family and state) you were prevented from having the time to fully investigate and understand state business so that you might make an "informed" vote in the first place

I kind of agree with that tbh. But it's very complicated so I can't say whether it's always right or wrong 

Basic US civics tests need to be conducted before voting in the US though (slightly kidding)

Lets hope Nicola can do something. 2nd Independence referendum to be debated in the Scottish Parliment on Wednesday. If the majority votes for an Independence Referendum, then there will be a referendum on Scottish Independence. Nicola is our only beacon of hope, if we become an independent country then we'd be part of the E.U again. 

That's a HUUUUUUUUUGE shortcut. Scottland would have to ask to be part of the EU. It would be a long process and Scottland entry could also be rejected or paused for few years.

Voted remain yada yada, still sad but not that worried, let's get on with it.

If you're given a second referendum, which is unlikely right now, you'd probably have to wait until after Brexit to leave the United Kingdom and if you did not you would still have to reapply to join the EU, which once again would take years.

Leaving the UK even with instant access to the EU would be ridiculous, leaving the UK without it is downright suicide.

I feel sorry for the remain-voters who are getting dragged down with the sinking island tho
