Title: [NEWS] Britain left the EU. Post by: Spoetnik on June 24, 2016, 05:56:16 AM This is pretty major news people !
I seen it locally on my news but word should be all over now.. BRUTAL ! Quote UPDATE: 9:40 p.m. Britain entered uncharted waters Friday after the country voted to leave the European Union, according to a projection by all main U.K. broadcasters. The decision shatters the stability of the project in continental unity forged after World War II in hopes of making future conflicts impossible. The decision raises the likelihood of years of negotiations over trade, business and political links with what will become a 27-nation bloc. In essence the vote marks the start — rather than the end — of a process that could take decades to unwind. The "leave" side was ahead by 51.7 per cent to 48.3 per cent with more than three-quarters of votes tally, making a "remain" win a statistical near-impossibility. The pound suffered one of its biggest one-day falls in history, plummeting more than 10 per cent in six hours, from about $1.50 to below $1.35, on concern that severing ties with the single market will hurt the U.K. economy and undermine London's position as a global financial centre. But if it shocked the markets, the result delighted "leave" campaigners. "The dawn is breaking on an independent United Kingdom," U.K. Independence Party leader Nigel Farage said to loud cheers at a "leave" campaign party. "Let June 23 go down in our history as our independence day!" As results poured in, a picture emerged of a sharply divided nation: Strong pro-EU votes in the economic and cultural powerhouse of London and semi-autonomous Scotland were countered by sweeping anti-Establishment sentiment for an exit across the rest of England, from southern seaside towns to rust-belt former industrial powerhouses in the north. "A lot of people's grievances are coming out and we have got to start listening to them," said deputy Labour Party leader John McDonnell. With the result in favour of an EU exit, or Brexit, the U.K. becomes the first major country to decide to leave the bloc, which evolved in the ashes of the war as European leaders sought to build links and avert future hostility. Authorities ranging from the International Monetary Fund to the U.S. Federal Reserve and Bank of England warned a British exit will reverberate through a world economy that is only slowly recovering from the global economic crisis.

The Scotland vote was solid in favor of remaining in the E.U. and the results in Northern Ireland were mixed. It is likely that Scotland will vote again on its independence and the yes vote will probably prevail this time. As an anglophile, it will be dispiriting to see Great Britain become the incredible shrinking country...

Most will suffer London, then UK then EU. London will for sure, no mater which path UK will take or like Switzerland or like Norway or like, ... , lost economy center of Europe. Most likely Frankfurt will take it over. Title: Re: [NEWS] Britain left the EU.

Most likely Frankfurt will take it over. Berlin, Paris, and Amsterdam all claim they will take over and become the new European trading centre. They might all get some increased business, but I don't think any will exclusively take London's place. London's too well established, and if there are other exits from the EU business could start flocking back to London. |
