We'll now see Cameron's lies exposed. The EU will be desperate to keep trading with us.

MeeeeIt does look that way. USA, Canada, and Australia (in another article) are asking to special trade with us. Lets hope this gets done fast, so we don't lose anything and we can get our freedom back on track. What worries me is that Cameron wants to stay on for a while. He has no interest in making us look good, and I don't trust him to. Basically he probably just want a home for a few months while he gets rid of his tennants. Otherwise he wuld officially be homeless and looking for a place to rent. Not a good idea in London, looking to rent.

germany would be VERY wise to be next to gexit...! or their bill will be enormous for ever...!

kevinshwThe fact Germany needs to be in a weak Euro. If Germany was to return to a DM there would be a 20% increase in goods. German exports would take a big hit and the reason why the 20 billion to the EU budget is still good sense. However Merkel´s time is limited and others may be at risk. But of cause we have our own problems.

Democracy won in the UK.
EU is a failure and a dictatorship

ivorfewthingstosayGerman government officials want an associate membership? I voted OUT, nothing less

German governments do not 'make' the UK. The U.K. Makes itself. German supremacy is history. They are now only a chief payer to a failing regime. Keep it up Germany

It was always a 'House of Cards' and it's about time reality sets in! We are about to free ourselves of this corrupt and Self Destruct Club,

The EU is an undemocratic organisation and has condemned a generation of young people in southern Europe to 55% unemployment - it is rule by a lot of anonymous, unelected Eurocrats. We elected our government to govern us and not to be governed by the EU.- if we don't want our government we will elect others - this CANNOT happen with the EU!!!  ...We wnated our country back - and we have got it . Rule Britannia britons never shall be slaves. Despite the fact that \Germany keeps on singing "Deutschland Uber Alles - Germany over everbody else.We wnated our country back - and we have got it .

I live in Germany. Merkel is a vile traitor par excellance. She wants to FLOOD Germany & Europe with untold millions of Muslims !! Many in Germany believe she wants to create a European Caliphate. I believe she is a plant for Saudi Arabia & Turkey. Never, never trust this evil woman!! They want to build huge mosques all over Germany. Please wake up !!!

Helpus
I listened to her speech in German on livestream. Towards the end around 4:15 onwards she got to the real meat of her speech. She said it will take many years for the UK to disentangle itself from the EU. Believe me, Merkel is a monster of a woman & is very much a dictator. The first 4 minutes she mentioned Globalization twice mentioning the special role of Germany & the EU in keeping things peaceful and stable. She was making coded references to the N W O.

This woman is a liar & has destroyed our country. She is the biggest traitor of all time for most Germans. She is despised !! Never forget what she did last year by inviting all the Muslim world to come to Germany. All were welcomed !! 2 million were escorted into Germany last year alone. She also has done secret deals with Erdogan like giving visas to 80 million Turks + other nasty things. She did not even once mention refugees in today's speech !! She is the epitome of evil !!

Greece has never balanced a budget in 128 years; Greece has presented false government accounts every year since 1978 to the Common Market; Greek prime ministers and finance ministers are criminals and should go to jail.

Leave the EU. Save yourselves while you still can. The longer you wait to decide, the worse your country will become.

Bonnie Smith A wonderful day for mankind and freedom over satanic tyranny!

writersaliveThe Schengen Agreement--forged in sorcery and finally torn apart by God's signs of the times. Maranatha. 

BellelattedahThe EU was a horrible idea that should die a quick death. Giving up their sovereignty and having open borders has endangered all of Europe.

CapnFatz
Well done U.K. It takes a lot of courage and conviction to cast a vote that you KNOW will mean a season of economic pain. Britain just became great again.

AugustusGuptaOne Billion Pounds per month saved - how will that cause economic pain? Except to those in the EU.

Angela, I think what the UK was trying to tell you is that, once again, Europeans are getting sick and tired of Germany trying to run the whole continent. They didn't want it 70 years ago and they certainly don't want it now. Oh, and have fun with the "refugee" problem you created.

SoxCelts
Merkel like Obama came in with so much promise and left with so much destruction....
And all those poor people that worked on that Flag, they must be so disappointed.

ElizabethBrower
Germany should follow its cousin Austria and get out NOW.

bonfireOnce again Germany is rejected. The People want their sovereignty and culture. That is the natural order . . . F***k the New World Order/Globalist/One World Gov/One World Religion c***p! The Lion of Europa is tearing the EU apart.

DailyDoctor
The heads of the EU talk tough about punishing Britain by denying them access to markets... but that's kind of hard to do when other countries begin leaving the Bloc to do business with Britain, isn't it?

cover20
Germany blinks! The day after the vote and already Germany is trying to maintain special ties to the UK. It's a much better bargaining position than if they had voted to remain, in which case Europe would be looking for every possible way to take advantage of them. You don't get much in life by knuckling under. Freedom and courage is the way to go.

Is this the end of German hegemony in Europe under Merkel, et al?

ThanksToLeaveI forsee a new EU...... Germany with Turkey and France perhaps. All others out. Merkel would be a happy bunny

Good to see the UK leaving the EU. Great that they still want to be a free and directing the NATION on their terms, not that of Brussels.

KyleKepkyley
For each country that gets out, the tab gets higher for those who remain. Germans have already been paying too much for slacker countries like Greece, now lets see how they tolerate the prospect of a 2.5 billion increase in pulling the weight of under achievers.

FrankWalker
Had Merkel not been so insistent on wildly unpopular immigration, she could have held the EU together. But like most elites, she is possessed of consummate arrogance.

hitleryforprison2016Like most manchurian candidates she possesses much disdain and hatred for her own country. That is why people like her, obama and hillary do what they do.

CarlBall
the only thing that has held the euro together is britain ad germany as they have the biggest economies and the money in the bank! since the dawn of this centralized government fiasco they have been bailing out these other countries while being ordered by brussels to do this or that!! what caused this iis unfettered open borders and these un- vetted refugees obama and hillary caused during there inane arab spring that is still being fought today after they just shrugged their shoulders and moved to the golf course! instead of globalization and a one world government run with a centralized government people do not want that, nationalism is the new trend!

Germany needs to leave now! The square heads and the rest of Europe needs to follow the lead of Hungary else they become Eurabia.

Jolly Good Show, Brits! May Many More Join You!

It would be devastating to the EU should France pull out. Germany, the U.K. and France are the hedge that sustain the union. I do not believe that big government can be sustained long term so a change now is better than a change later, but it would be an interesting world event if more countries pull out.

Major CoxtiffFrance has two massive problems to deal with. It has a large public sector where workers are allowed to doddle about for 36 hours a week then retire in middle age with pensions almost as large as their salaries and this is unsustainable. They also have a private sector where growth is stagnant and there is huge unrest at the prospect of changes in labour laws which have spilled out onto the sreets frequently lately. The labour unions are very belligerant and the farmers in particular have been heavily subsudised for years by the Common Agriculture policy and will no doubt continue to protest and bring France to a standstill if these subsidies are reduced. They refuse point blank to have the slave labour conditions imposed on us by the EU but something has to give. If Le Pen gets in because of this a Frexit is likely.

MichelleFlorrow
Also, much respect to the voters in the U.K. who took a stand to leave the EU.

Thanks, Brits! I loaded up the truck with gold in anticipation!

God bless the people of Britannia for having the courage to take the reins again.

tipaThanks. 

janbeeThank you. It feels great to be 100% British again. I couldn't stop grinning all day yesterday. I looked like I had a coat hanger in my mouth. 

By graceIt is God who overruled and undertook in this situation, as He is sovereign.
He lifts up and pulls down, according to His will, and man cannot stay His hand.

As an American, I truly admire the British people. We already know that they are tough. They dealt with an incredible assault by the Nazis in WW II, but refused to knuckle under. In the end, they prevailed. But they've also proven yesterday (as they have many times before) that they are also smart and sensible. They know when to say "Enough is enough", in this case by the onslaught of refuges. The British put their own sovereignty above political correctness, and I commend them for having the fortitude and good sense to do so. I hope and pray America learns from out best ally's example, and does the same this fall by electing Donald Trump. My guess is we will do so.

James2112Britain leaving the E.U. is so much bigger than most people could have imagined. This was as much a repudiation of the far left European elitist as it was the United Nations, which has been the driving force behind the mass influx of middle easterners into E.U. countries and the implications will likely be a factor in the U.S. during our own elections.

You may have noticed the poor old woman didn't mention Germany ! Yet, they are more sceptical of the EU than Greece is. I'm thinking that Germany could be out, even before Holland.

janbeeThe Germans are not allowed a referendum on the eu. . Democracy eh? Their only way is to get rid of Meks and her party and get in the AFD. 

cdbnow that would be possible very soon, even before 2017. 

janbeeYes, I certainly hope so.

Well done Merkel. Everyone is sick of your uncontrolled invasion of muslims. They know that they are NOT real refugees. They are sick of them and they are sick of you. Time for you to follow Cameron out the door in disgrace.

nathanwhitworthThis is what happens when politicians think they are all important and don't listen to the people that elected them in the first place . Merkel being the worst out the lot and now your going to reap what you sow . I read in the news that the EU and politicians are shocked the Britain left the EU , I'm not and I bet if you asked most working class Europeans they probably are not shocked . In fact my bet is this is the end of the EU , long live democracy .

ThanksToLeave
It is far from just the English who are fed up.

MikeHopefully the Western World, as we used to know it, will now start waking up, and throw out the establishment. That's why Cameron is pretending to be 'noble', he's trying to retain the statue quo. Time the whole damned applecart was overturned, and the people who are indigenous to Britain had a real say. The referendum went with the wishes of proportional representation, why shouldn't a General Election? UKIP needs a jump start, and won't get it with first past the post, and a GE in 2020!

OldStuPedasso
Brits are tired of the EU elitist over regulation and meddling in their daily lives. American politicos should take a lesson.

LivingwaterFreelygivenI didn't think the hobbits had it in them to reclaim their Shire. I'm happily surprised. And you're right, of course. Now it's time to get Trump in the Oval Office and turn this thing around while there's still time. We haven't collapsed yet but under Hillary we will.

Probably 5 but possibly even 7.. Can;t wait for the domino effect to kick in.

And don't forget Denmark and Sweden.

ThanksToLeaveHopefully they will have the sense to push for leave now. I would love to see the political EU die and wither.

Airborne Ally
They only have themselves to blame , the political elite over the last 40 years have taken us further down the German dream of a one nation state of Europe and told lie after lie to achieve this goal, The majority of the public have seen through these lies and have had enough , I thank God this vote came now before it was to late and we took down our Union flag forever on the orders of the EU and put that Blue one up in it's place . Well done the UK we won the modern day Battle of Britain !

ThanksToLeaveExactly what I have been saying for a long time. Some of them still cannot see it, they argue already for more integration, more Europe. Some people are incapable of seeing the obvious even when it is right in front of their nose.
MikeIt was actually the Germans and the French walking in step. Only in recent times have the French fallen out of step. They never realised that the Euro fitted the German economy like a glove, but was ill fitted for France's Agro-economy, and socialist eutopian working conditions. Both, very stupidly totally misread Britain, all over again. Now for the consequences!

60 million people where killed in the last war alone for us to have Freedom to have a Life and to set our own Laws, the EU had taken that right away. Thats why it was Out for me.
