    If only that were the case; unfortunately those that voted remain must also reap the same stuff
    Left is never right but I always am.

    As the title says. I am interested in what happens if we vote for a Brexit. Has anyone heard of any plans (being made or in place) for the next day, the next week, the next month and the next one or two years.
    I know the result is still in question as is the date of the referendum but a serious Government, local Authority and large Company's have to have contingency plans for such a huge change. They would be neglecting their duty if they did not.
    Can you imagine the chaos if at midnight of referendum day it is announced we are leaving the EU but "we have yet to work out how we do it!"
    Will you buy a new house during the run up to the vote.
    Would you put your house/flat on the market during the run up to the vote.
    Would you book your European holiday during the run up to the vote.
    Etc, etc, etc.

    Well they haven't worked out how to do it.I wonder how many people thought if the vote went the exit way , we would be out today

    Let's have a referendum on whether the rest of us pay their pensions.

    There are lots of non-boomers who could have stopped this but chose not to do so.
    Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are incapable of forming such opinions.

    people who voted exit, reap what you sow

    It looks like a lot of them had nothing to lose (or at least they thought that) in the first place, and that was probably a major factor in their decision making process.

    If you don't feel like you're doing well from the status quo then why vote for it?

    Maybe they can pay the boomers pensions. Oh wait, they can't because they're all either on benefits or working sixteen fcking hours a week.

    Good luck Britain. You'll need it.
