So when can we expect a referendum on whether to keep the royal family? Could save a fortune by not funding them anymore and I reckon there is quite a lot of voters who'd love to oust them ......

It's not really about immigration - that will continue primarily from commonwealth countries who mostly look a lot less British than Europeans.

This was more about Britons being fed up with the establishment, about not having their voices heard and about being sick of being told lies. It's also about taking back control from Europeans and making our own decisions. We entered the EU as a trade partner only, but it has become a political pact now. We no longer want to be part of that, and I think the people have done a great thing in walking away. I expect other countries will do the same now and the thing will crumble

Irony that they were fed up of lies, but were fed lies by those telling them to vote out. Britain will try to continue trading with the EU so that point is redundant as well.

It's just a huge mess

It's messy - but I have to think we did the right thing. Junker gave Cameron hardly any concessions. They gambled on us caving in and they've lost.

Cameron is about to resign apparently
