    Remain have been architects of their own downfall by portraying all Leavers as racists. The problem is that they are so angry at losing that they can't see reality.

    The truth is that even with the entire establishment behind them plus 95% of economists, the Trade Unions, almost all of big business, all except one small political party plus every international leader, Remain couldn't persuade the people to support them. No wonder they're lashing out this morning.

    You lost. Deal with it.

    Now we'll soon be saving £350 million a week with not having to pay the EU fat cats, we can save even more money by not paying benefits of any kind to anyone who wants to live in the UK for a minimum of five years and stopping the benefits of the "won't work can't work" british, add that to only paying child benefit to the first two children of a couple and the stopping of working tax credits to the ones who clearly don't need it (newish cars and foreign holiday brigade).


    And before anyone suggests, I'm not a racist, I'm a realist.

    The Remain camp politicians are acting like petulant children that can't get their own way.
    Last night at 10pm to 11pm they where almost bragging of their supposed victory, only to be reminded that not a single vote was in yet.

    Cameron has run away to hide instead of his insistence that he would implement the will of the people (no matter how small).
    Tim Farron called 52% of the British people stupid this morning, he should pay dearly for that.
    George Osbourne, not a word, probably plotting revenge and the downfall of the British Empire.

    It's happened, deal with it!

    I would like to know how Southport voted PR8 & PR9. It could well show we voted opposite to Bootle

    The bulk of that £350 million will have to be spent on what the EU is currently providing for us but no longer will be

    None of that has anything to do with the EU.

    There is nothing racist about treating all migrants fairly. The racists are those who think that those from the EU should be treated differently to those from the wider world.
    But really, isn't it time these racist slurs were buried for good? Surely in a civilized society we should be able to rise above name calling and get on with living our lives in harmony with others?

    It's a real shame that this country has been severely damaged by people like you who know absolutely nothing about anything to do with the EU.

    Just think of all the import duty we will have instead of giving it to the EUSSR.We can now have trade deals with the rest of the world.

    Get even more money if the likes of Amazon,Starbucks,Costa,Google and the rest PAID THEIR TAXES to HMRC,instead of a very small percentage of their profits,as the rest of their profits goes overseas to other countries instead,so as to lower tax jurisdictions and to reduce their UK tax liability.

    No, he hasn't run away. What a strange thing to say.

    No he didn't.

    As he was presumeably very busy with his job as Chancellor of the Exchequer today, maybe he just didn't have time for a word with you today.

    As the import duty we currently hand to the EU is zero I'm having difficulty thinking about it. Perhaps you coudl explain what you mean?
