I'm unsure how any vote can get passed.

It would be pretty suicidal for parliament to vote down the result of the referendum, whatever the MP's might think personally.

Sinn Fein are repeating their request for a referendum in Northern Ireland, claiming in a strongly worded statement that there is cross-community support for remaining in the EU.

Let's hope this knee jerk reaction doesn't develop into a full blown financial crisis.

Just checked my overdraft, it's still there. Phew!

The Premier League has already started taking about how the UK leaving the EU is going to effect them. Many EU players may not get work permits to play here now, not to mention that Premier League clubs will no longer be able to search the continent for young players for their academies.

Sky are reporting at the moment that if the UK hadn't been in the EU last year then N'golo Kante, Anthony Martial, Romelu Lukaku and Dimitri Payet would not have been allowed to join their current clubs.

Payet is the best example, as before his transfer to West Ham he had played just a few times for his country, and given his relatively advanced years he is exactly the sort of player who wouldn't get a permit.

These referendums, are they just what the people want? There's what only 3% more in favour to leave, now Cameroon has gone can these be ignored and UK remain in EU claiming there's no massive and clear majority?

nicola sturgeon is quite impressive i have to say. takes no shit.

The reason I voted to leave was that I am fed up of the EU interfering in how we govern ourselves also the treaties signed in 1993 and 2007 created a defacto dictatorship.

I think that's a lot of peoples possiiton, a protest vote that's gone a bit wrong, this is why I didn't vote.

If they say a million or so people is not enough people people to make such a big decission a revote may have a different out come.
