Brexit is literally more liberty though
In what way? How do you see your life improving because of this decision?
Honestly its way too early to tell, its ptobably going to be the same for a while.
But leaving the EU and not having it rule over us is literally more liberty. This quote absolutely makes no sense in this context
Hmm, maybe literally, it doesn’t. But when looking at not just the regulations and Brussels bureaucracy but also the benefits the UK stands to lose, I think it makes more sense.

I’m so confused. How is them becoming an independent country not liberty?
Well for a start, the EU provides protection for workers’ rights, which will probably be a target as UK companies seek to recover from the markets’ instability. (source: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/eu-referendum-workers-rights-paid-holiday-brexit-labour-angela-eagle-a6901146.html )
There could also be less freedom of movement. UK citizens could then have to get visas whenever they want to work elsewhere in the EU. This is currently not the case. Also, UK citizens currently working in the EU would have to either quit and go home or try to get a visa. Lastly, a lot of companies have offices in the UK and are already making plans to relocate back into the EU. Examples include Goldman Sachs, Vodafone (their HQ, anyway), and Morgan Stanley. That means thousands of jobs gone. All of this adds up to a lack of opportunity. Less opportunity means more poverty, and poverty has rarely equaled greater freedom.
My phone is dying so I won’t go further, but suffice to say when you have to lie as much as the Leave campaign has had to, the foundation is probably shakey at best.

m8, it was a democratic vote to leave an undemocratic union, not the seizure of ‘emergency powers’ by emperor fucking palpatine
shit thanks for clearing that up I was really sure Boris Johnson was actually Jar Jar Binks
And wow how democratic. A bunch of elderly racists that don’t know how to interface with poc they can’t exploit from afar have made a decision that will have consequences they won’t have to deal with. The younger generations, however, who do need to worry about jobs and the economy, and who did not want to leave the EU, are forced to reckon with an economy that has already started to nose dive.
I don’t think you understand how democracy works. Democracy allows people to vote for what they believe is right. No matter how old they are, they are still a citizen of this country and deserve a voice.
The fault lies in those who didn’t vote, the 18-25 demographic have the highest percentage of remain votes than any other demographic. They are also the demographic with the highest % of people who won’t vote. It is also from my experience on social media today that the young people who didn’t vote are the most salty and are crying that it’s their future. They didn’t vote, they can’t say shit about this result because they didn’t practice their right to vote in a democratic society.But I don’t think most of tumblr understands (they never do) that just because we voted out of the EU, we aren’t all fucking racist. In probably 90% if not more, of the leave voters don’t give a fuck whether immigrants come here or not. Our problem is with the EU itself, how it’s run, it’s corruption and the fact that it is a threat to our own democracy.
Read into it before you put everyone who voted out under the racist label.
I would honestly love to hear what sort of pure democracy you think Farage and Johnson, etc. are going to usher in. How do you think this is going to unfold? How does a drastically devalued currency serve the UK? How do you feel about the immediate flip on the £350mil claim?
No one swaps genders like Gaston!
HELL YASS

The EU shouldn’t even exist so it’s a good step in the right direction if their steps after this are going down the right path. I think the US should leave now, we should’ve never joined in the first place
????? You must mean the UK??? The US isn’t a member?????
It’s been 6 generations and this guy is still tripping balls over science and technology.
