    Apologies. I meant Turkey.

    Turkey are not getting in. It's effectively a fascist state with a human rights record that the eu could not ignore. Their entry will be vetoed forever.

    So any of you Out voters have buyer's remorse yet?

    Don't be shy.

    I got talking to an Indian today who voted out. Apparently he had to jump through wndless hoops and obstacles to get here, while the poles he works with just took a bus from sczeczin or gdansk, no questions asked. It's just not fair, and of course .....it's racist.
    It's a European Union, not a Eurasian one, and a white English speaking Australian who knows all the words to God save the queen would have had the same difficulties as you.
    Here's what I think - I resent having his distorted thinking disrupt our country.

    It's wasn't Farage's campaign. He wasn't part of the official campaign. Bit pointless asking him don't you think.

    Seems to be the case that a lot of people are regretting voting leave. They wanted to make a protest vote to leave but really wanted to stay. Unfortunately too many thought the same thing OOPS!

    Seems to me a lot of kids are throwing their toys out of the pram. The majority voted to leave and now some unless petition is doing the rounds trying to call a debate on a new referendum. What's is this? I fell asleep and woke up in North Korean. Unbelievable.

    1.2 million more people voted leave. You think 1.2 million people thought they'd protest?

    Not that it even matters.

    Yes. Seriously considering applying for an Italian passport for the first time. My wife could get an Irish one, and probably my kids... So I guess we're alright. Could enter the EU on an EU passport and the UK on a British one.

    Funnily enough, the Turkish reaction I heard was "sod you, we never wanted to come to the UK." :) Turks aren't short of pride or history, either...
