dick dasterdly Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Its a bit depressing though for those of us living in Thailand, as the exchange rate has gone from 51 (point something) first thing this a.m., to 47 (point something) now. London market's yet to open. Bloodbath. Hopefully things will stabilise? I'd be more worried in the medium term if I was reliant on Euro's. True, but I'm reliant on sterling! Anyway, I'm still happy if the vote is 'leave' - as I'm no longer so worried that it will result in further measures that hurt the working class. The working class have made it v clear that they are unhappy, and politicians are going to have to woo them back . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was 45 a couple of years ago. The GBP/EUR rate is where it was in May of this and the Dollar will just take the brunt of the knee-jerk reaction and speculation.

Usernames Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 It's worth seeing the Leave people win just so I can watch Christiane Amanpour's fat, puffy, ugly face contort with rage and launch into hysteria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydebolle Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Whatever the outcome; I - non-European - have the strange feeling that the EU seems to be a failure either way; if you get such a tight vote it means that upto 50% are not happy with the outcome - irrespective of outcome.

Franky Bear Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 A hell of a lot of economists will be getting fired today. I personally thought Remain would win by 7-13%.I've never been so glad to be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mosha Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 So Corbyn will call for Dave to resign. The late Jo Cox said Corbyn should step down if leave wins, for failing to galvanize the Labour voters.

I would be worried now joining the EU. You and the other new nations of Albania et al can all fight to see what scraps are left. The Dutch and possibly France will be following. so really it will be another empire run by the Germans. Once again good luck as you are going to need it.
