Can someone explain Brexit and it's effect on Boxing?

Like David Davis who has actually worked in the EU on the treaties? Gisela Stuart who helped draw up the EU Constitution? Michael Gove? all educated people on the EU, all Pro-Leave. Or do you have to be pro-Remain to be educated on the EU?

What you see as the problem with democracy is actually its strength i.e. that someone who considers himself to be more educated on a subject doesn't decide what's best for you and everyone else. Everyone gets one vote, as it should be.

I trust in the judgement of the British people, I have faith in our country and in democracy.

Yes all of those. They are all looking at the EU from one viewpoint and one alone. All of their claims, particularly David Davis, who completely disregards the economic & financial eco system of the decision.

"But but Lithuanians won't be able to work here doe" give me a break Mr. Davis, it's complete BS and short sighted.

This is actually what he said: “The Treasury is putting an implausibly precise number on an entirely improbable scenario."

That entirely improbable scenario is in full effect my friend.

Do you have any idea what financial impact this decision will have on Britain? It will be of such biblical proportions that the children of today will still be picking up the pieces when they are full set adults.

Well, you trusted in the British people and you saw your finances completely ***ed this morning with no view of improvement. That's what happens when you get the ordinary person to vote about something they know absolutely nothing about.

How many people actually know about the EU and the impact it has on Britain? Between 3-5% of the public maybe?

David Cameron just resigned.

Another sketchy point, which likely won't get looked at until at least next week, is that Scotland (and likely Wales as well) voted decidedly to stay in the EU.

We may be looking at the outright breakup of the United Kingdom, simply based on the ginned up worries/concerns of some people not liking the influx of foreigners working in their country from across Europe.

Scots to the North, Welsh to the West, and Britain/Northern Ireland the only ones left in the United Kindom

No real effect on boxing... Just a bunch of finance guys playing with money for 2 weeks before everyone calms down.

Very realistic possibility, especially as Scotland has been very anti-English dominance. They did have their referendum some years ago, I suspect a new one will be asked for soon and they will seek independent admission to the EU. I think it's probably likely that Wales or NI or both will join, or that NI unites with Ireland.

2 weeks... oh dear me.

Can you tell me about your background in finance since you're going on about how average people don't understand these things?

Perhaps to an average person who isn't active in finance "lowest in 30 years" seems to imply that it will take 30 years to recover? Give me your average person perspective so I can understand what you're talking about.

I should note that the economic impact is only one minor facet of Brexit. To preserve Britain itself is worth that price. Violent conflict against Remain supporters would have also been worth it if necessary. The continued existence of a British people who were having their culture ripped away and parceled out to the third world eclipses counting pennies. Some faith in humanity was restored today.

Well, Wales voted to leave

NI has a physical land border so its not so surprising that they voted to stay in

Scotland is the worrying place. I've already sat through 1 divisive independence referendum, and by admission, the winning side only sc****d 55%. I can't see us winning such a referendum next time..

May he fall into terrible illness.

A disgusting, subhuman creature, sponsor of **** and destruction, counter of pennies. May he and his family fall gravely ill.

The last paragraph helps me know you are completely helpless. I could go into the affects of this on international trading, GNW, short and long term effects on small, national and multi-national corporations, millions of people inside and outside the UK, general sovereignty and of course the effect on the rest of the EU as well.

It also has effects on the UK and its own sovereign state as we have seen both NI and Scotland decisively voting to remain.

But someone who says their culture has been ripped apart.. I mean, just lol. I can't argue with someone like that.
