    Generali. They are morons. They have no idea what they have done.

    Half my job is dealing with European grant funding. Research, mobility, investment. Its all about to disappear so some some sparsely educated cretins can swagger around waving flags.

    I literally cannot believe what has happened.

    So because this didn't go your way the people who voted are morons? I thought whoever lost was going to accept it and then move on?? lots of bad spirit on the board today??!!

    There isn't anything to argue about, I've never said that I was trying to sell any property. I have only said that I would probably be selling some of them in a few years. Now that I am retiring (this December), there is always the option to hang onto them for a while longer (if I feel so inclined when I experience retirement).

    Completely and utterly agree. The Claptons of this world just took control of he gear stick mid flight without a map, god help us.
    Proudly voted remain. A global union of countries is the only way to commit global capital to the rule of law.

    I accept the result and will move on. They're still morons though. :D
    Don't blame me, I voted Remain.

    The commentary on Bloomberg is saying the opposite, this outcome was plain to see, if you looked, but a tiny number of people (city types and "elite" politicians) were allowed to frame the debate in the media (they had the gearstick too long) and they played down the chance of any outcome other than the status quo, and that is the reason this comes a "shock" to those that had the blinkers on and just listened to their VI nonsense.

    Why did you think that?

    If you people think anyone understands why you have done what you have, the biggest of shocks is coming to you.

    Your politics, your politicians, your voting intentions and your plans for this country do not reflect me and I do not recognise their legitimacy.
