An early "casualty" of Brexit.....

[nat4900]

LONDON — On Thursday, 56 percent of all voters in the southwestern county of Cornwall voted in favor of leaving the European Union. It was a decision supported by a majority of the county's members of Parliament.

But only one day later, Cornwall residents were asking, "What have we done?"

The county is heavily dependent on the more than 60 million British pounds ($82 million) in E.U. subsidies per year that are transferred to the region and that have helped finance infrastructure projects and education schemes. Now, county officials are panicking — fearing the worst for the county's future and wondering why one of the most E.U.-dependent counties in Britain voted against the E.U.

After residents voted for Brexit, this British county realized the E.U. might stop sending them money

Obviously the biggest casuality of Brexit is that liberals didn't get their way.

Boohoo.

When on the dole, it's hard to get off the dole.
It's called self-sufficiency

The EU is a world of shit and piss, and has made absolute total dependence on them of millions. When They have no more tits to suck on... What are they to do??

 

[HenryBHough]

Among the early casualties those children who raced to the bank with their piggy banks and smashed them on the counter to make a quick killing on the falling Pound.

They won't recognize their situation until they go to Walmart Monday and try to buy a new piggy bank with their profit.

Ok, but since those stocks are overwhelmingly owned by you liberal elitists, where's the downside?

Reminds me of libs whining about red states getting tax dollars from DC but never cutting DC spending.

"Buyers' remorse" may lead for the clamor of yet a new vote by Britain......Wait until the Scots' call to secede from the UK sinks in....

Whose whining? I'm not against West Virginia getting federal funds, they need it. I just wish wingnuts could reconcile their need for government money with their political views.

Who will write the checks to cover the Scot's spending?

No conservatives have money in the stock market? Now I know for sure you're nuts.

Oh but conservatives DO! It's just that they don't dash madly about trying to benefit from the misfortune of others. They invest wisely - not emotionally. Something you might consider trying should the opportunity one day present.

The post to which you responded quantified the effect.........you dutifully rebleat a slogan....

tough call, IceIce....

Partially, the EU...after all, isn't THAT what a "union" does???....But, fret not.....Many British companies will probably relocate to Scottish cities boosting both that country's economy AND housing market..
