What’s beautiful is that the Right Wing has fallen for their own trap. They believe the echo chamber themselves, as evidenced by Karl Rove’s breakdown on election night 2012.

In a razor-tight vote, Great Britain has voted to leave the European Union, which was a really, disastrously bad…
It turns our stomachs too. We are ashamed.
I’m in Bristol. I don’t know anyone that voted to leave.
I’m from England and I am horrified. The vote should have been open to 16 year olds. The baby boomers have had the benefit of freedom of travel, free education and the ability to buy houses. They have taken all of this away from my generation and I am sat in cold shock. I love being part of Europe and I feel that it’s…
Seems likely this may lead to more carnage in Northern Ireland too, with the new “hard border” between NI and the Irish Republic. Sinn Fein have already put out a statement:
Awesome ...the idiots have won. It will be a rough awakening for a lot of those poorer people who voted to leave against their own interests based on their fears of “immigrant waves” and “all the money Brussels is wasting” etc. The consequences of this will hit them the hardest ...because they don’t have the financial…
From what I read when this issue first came up two years ago, the thought was they would use the “median line”. Meaning the would look at the oil fields and draw a line where both sides are equal distance from Scotland and England shores. Each side would keep their own behind that line. As for the Queen, based on what…
Words cannot describe how awful that man is. I wish the vote was open to 16 year old like the Scottish one was, they're the ones who have to live with this the longest. By all accounts it was the older generation who swung the vote.
So I have questions. If Scotland leaves, do they get the North Sea Oil fields? I know the price of oil has plunged since the last vote, but I imagine that both Scotland and the U.K. Will want them. And what about the Queen? Would she get to keep the lands she owns in Scotland? I just have leftover questions that never…
They are going to leave. 70% of Scots voted to stay in the EU. The only reason they agreed to stay part of Great Britain was because of the guarantees they got from Cameron that GB would remain part of the EU. Scotland is friggin gone.
with delusions of empire.
It is mind blowing that people think this is a good thing. I am just sitting here stunned. The markets are reacting terribly, good luck with trade, Scotland is going to leave the UK for sure while Ireland made rumblings a few hours ago that they will explore their options as well. The whole thing is just jaw dropping.
looks like there’s another push for united ireland.
I’m seeing pieces suggesting just that. Apparently Scotland favored remaining in the EU and so this is a new point of contention. They also suggested a “stronger” British identity may cause more friction.
Exactly my point. Scotland just got screwed and they know it. Who wants to be subordinate to a finicky electorate that doesn’t take your wishes and welfare into consideration!
Watch Scotland, UK. They might make a break for it to go to the EU and I don’t blame them one bit.
This is such a bad move, I’m so ashamed of my country. This move shows how hate can motivate people to make stupid decisions. Please remember that very nearly half of us didn't make this decision. I feel sick...
The multitudinous layers of the enigma that is Lindsay Lohan have continued to unfurl for us on the eve of the…
