does this mean all the English working at the European Commission and Parliament, and at OAMI in Alicante will now be fired over the next few weeks?

Does this mean we've been kicked out of the Euros and Iceland will get through to the Quarter Finals on a bye?

Will my ticket for tonight's Euro Millions Lottery still be valid?
That £31 million might come in handy

So many questions

As a "reluctant remainer" I think in the long term the vote is something we will come to regret. Boris, Gove and their Little Englanders will have a lot to live up to in the coming months.

One things for sure is that the Law of Unintended Consequences will get a good airing as the genie leaves the bottle.

Also will we still be eligible to fail dismally in the Eurovision Song Contest?

Think a big problem with the EU and our eventual leaving was not adopting each others cultures and idiosyncrasy such as the British not adopting the Spanish practice of as a family aimlessly wandering the streets in the evening and the Spanish refusing to accept their quotas of Vimto.

What a day.  All the fat cats have got the right hump i can tell you. Very aggressive in the City.  My boss emailed me to say I wont be getting a bonus this year because property prices will plummet (really he's got the hump that I voted out....and I'm not joking) then my son (who is a trader and also voted out) has just told me the co. he works for traded a billion dollars today. The most in 2 years!!!    Cant be all that bad???

A Prime Minister resigned. The £ plummeted. The FTSE 100 lost significant ground. But then the £ rallied past February levels, and the FTSE closed on a weekly high: 2.4% up on last Friday, its best performance in 4 months. President Obama decided we wouldn't be at the 'back of the queue' after all and that our 'special relationship' was still strong. The French President confirmed the Le Touquet agreement would stay in place. The President of the European Commission stated Brexit negations would be 'orderly' and stressed the UK would continue to be a 'close partner' of the EU. A big bank denied reports it would shift 2,000 staff overseas. The CBI, vehemently anti-Brexit during the referendum campaign, stated British business was resilient and would adapt. Several countries outside the EU stated they wished to begin bi-lateral trade talks with the UK immediately. If this was the predicted apocalypse, well, it was a very British one. It was all over by teatime. Not a bad first day of freedom, and it was lovely this evening on our little beach up here in Yorkshire
