Britain vote to leave the EU

[Gandalf]

You chaps have issues. You are run by liars on both sides. Have parties that revolt whenever they seem to have an 'opportunity' and meanwhile living standards continue to drop and the borders are wide open. It makes no sense to the casual observer. You have allowed really stupid and self interested people to sell your sovereignty and destroy your country. I don't understand why the British just take it like they do. They should be barricading borders and marching on the city of London and arresting Blair. But nothing done about anything ever except new powers to spy and enforce the BBC on everyone.... strange.

Its the dumbing down of the sheeple. Pretty.soon governments can sodomize people and ASK FOR MONEY FOR IT, and the people----The sheeple---Nietzsche's "last man"---- will just whip out their credit cards and beg to be manhandled again and again. Alex Jones was one of the first to identify this masochistic, zombie madness.

Who are the sheeple? The people who voted for Brexit? The people who voted for remain? The people who engaged democratically and voted? Those who did not see a referendum as democratic and abstained? Those of us who take to the streets and protest or those who choose not to protest? Which half of the British population? Who here on Saddo? Who in this thread? Let me take a wild guess and suggest you may mean everyone bar you and Miles, neither of whom live in this country or voted in the referendum. I know at least one of you has whipped out his credit card for Alex Jones so who are the sheeple now?

At least you are getting a taste of what we Americans deal with. It seems the world is an expert on America despite never setting foot here.

Do you need to live in Greece to see that the people are suffering and that the country has no control over its borders or currency? I don't really buy into that point of view. An informed outsider can know a lot more about a country than an uninformed local. I pay attention to countries like America because I understand the impact on the world. Same with China. I pay attention to the UK because I know people living there and I haven't quite closed the door. It's my duty to be informed.
