Leaving the ~38% impatient and the ~35% also on tenterhooks.
What do you mean
The Leavers want to Leave, the Remainers don't, silly.  (Assuming that all vote-Leave people are Leavers and so also with Remain, but I'll stick with the result.)

Yeah but the levels of passion died a long time ago, this is the resting period post-Olympic GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLD and the heat of the falling summer sun

I think we'll have to wait til 2017 when everyone's recouped their strength before glorious battle commences again. Most importantly, when an actual date for brexit is confirmed

Then it's round 2

So I was listening to Theresa May talking in the UN and was utterly gobsmacked by how much she spoke the sense I shitposted of

And then it struck me, she can do anything

Labour party are dying
The Osbornites, Govians and Bojos are neutralised
No one is invading
Economy is good
We've not sunk into the ocean yet
UKIP aren't on the warmarch
Libdems aren't doing anything
SNP are dealing with ready brex rebels
No obligations to anyone

Dis gon be gud if she wins a mandate 2020, the political stability would be as entrenched as rice and molasses mortar in porous brick
Let's see if this will be time of prosperity or time of propane

In brexit news:
Quote
in a briefing on public opinion at King's College London, Prof Curtice said there was “not much evidence of buyer’s remorse” over the vote.
“The Remainers are still convinced they were right and the Leavers still think they were right. Very few minds have been changed,” he said.
Nor is there much appetite for another vote, with no more than a third of people backing a second EU referendum according to a string of polls.
Regrexit disinfo BTFO

Oxford Uni comes as #1 best Uni in the world
[Deep concern]

Quote
The west’s leading economic thinktank has backtracked on its warning that the UK would suffer instant damage from a Brexit vote and has thrown its weight behind plans by Theresa May to provide fresh post-referendum support to growth in November’s autumn statement.
ayyy lmao I knew it the experts say whatever the rulers want them to say

Yeah, it seems that May's plan to not actually exist from the EU has been great at mitigating Brexit damage. :D

Negatory, twice as many people oppose secorendum than support it

Batty old people win again

WWIII 2020 make it happen

*EDIT
Stunning allegations arise that the Leave campaign was ran by Remain shills
Even with controlled opposition, it was not enough to stop the bants

Brexit vote round II will be over whether you should dig the Isles out of the continental plate, strap your nuclear arsenal to the bottom, and go full Orion Project into orbit and out to a Lagrange point.

I'd be tempted to vote for that.

It's actually the one instance (of a very few!) when it is actually the tears of children that are needed. (As opposed to an optional extra.)
