How has Brexit actually affected you so far?

[ska invita]

My racist neighbours getting drunk outside the off license this morning right under my flat and claiming victory. I worry now they'll be empowered enough to start giving me abuse again.

As a fellow Bromleyite have a hug from me Stella x
Fingers crossed it wont go that way

Thought about checking my retirement fund balance. Decided not to bother.

I have become a temporary fascist. I think that freedom of speech via social media should be suspended for 24 hours at least. I also think that anyone that hasn't had enough sleep, of which there are clearly many, need to go and have a long nap. I wish I could enforce this.

Today is definitely not a day for looking at social media. Days like this we're lucky to have urban

It really doesn't take much for some people to think its ok to be assholes.

Productivity falling outside of the EU was always going to be a worry

I've wasted the morning on here/watching referendum stuff on the telly when i should've been doing other things. #brokenbritain

I've been very unproductive today.

 

[ska invita]

For the first time, I have engaged in political chat with people I work with. I have also chatted to my mates via Whatsapp about politics, which is very rare.

I feel good about this side of it. I like the referendum, i like the democratic power of it, and although i think the stakes have been raised worryingly high for the whole of europe (and think that it was reckless to do this now), i like that its going to activate a lot of politics across the spectrum. Everyone is going to have to step up and work out exactly what side theyre on.

I'm considering a personal Brexit, looking at countries I can move to. It's utterly depressing.

Err no, that includes Urban.

I can tell you haven't had enough sleep...delirious in fact

 

[Plumdaff]

I'm not at work today but glad I don't have to face work colleague leave voter who actually brought a union jack in yesterday. Much more the flag than the leave voting, I might not have been able to control myself and I don't want to be sacked in the current climate...

Couldn't bring myself to vote for remain neoliberalism, couldn't line up with the gruesome politicians and messages of leave. Abstained. Same cunts are in charge today as yesterday, nothing's changed at that level.

Same time, some very predictable things are going to happen in terms of British capitalism, with regard to currency, investment and jobs. Can't deny that's going to be grim in the short, maybe even the medium term. Same cunts are in charge, but the same people are going to suffer.

£ : EUR was lower in Feb than it is now.

I know currency ebbs and flows, I was just looking at the exchange rate and seething.

On the flip side a friend works in the republic and lives in the north. Technically he got a 7% pay rise today.

 

[billy_bob]

it's meant to be a towel, usually a thick towel, placed on the floor beside a bath or shower on which you stand on exiting the bath (or shower) so you don't get water all over the floor. you might like to invest in one.

Not a metaphor then. They're incredibly hard to dry your floor with, metaphors.

 

[Virtual Blue]

Still fucked off and angry.
My mates, who are mostly 2nd gen immigrants / Europeans are fucked off too.

Facebook is pissing me off.
Stupid stupid cunts.

I voted to leave but this piece by one of the IWCA supporters makes good reading especially in the aftermath of the referendum.
A plague on both their houses…

The EU decimated the British lard industry with their oil based diktat
