I don't see anything wrong with that list! Love British food and Cadbury is my favourite! I agree with @Cumberland I don't think those car manufacturers will want to lose trade. If the EU don't want to trade, there is always the rest of the world!
Sadly Cadbury is now owned by Kraft (USA) who have changed the recipe and upped the sugar content since acquisition

I suspect the rest of the £75M investment may be on hold for a while now.
Kraft bought it for the EU market, not just the British market.

Well perhaps they can get some subsidy if needed from the money we will be saving from the EU or perhaps they won't need it because of all the extra money they will be charging us.Ironically, it appears some posters think they can support a massive expansion if they need to increase production several fold.
I foresee some disappointment when Bernard Matthews comes to the forefront of British meat production..
Also, it is about time British milk producers got a fair price for their products!!I bet the british farmers, and the british milk producers will even lay on a substantial discount for you, if you show the EU who's boss, and refuse to buy their produce and there's no competition for them anymore.
Theoretically they can. The British public tend to see all farmers as rich though, whilst they are happy for EU money (which we have paid in) to come back to UK farmers I don't think they will be so happy about their own taxes going direct to help the farmers. I also don't think most will be too happy to see produce prices go up and will blame the farmers for being greedy.Well perhaps they can get some subsidy if needed from the money we will be saving from the EU or perhaps they won't need it because of all the extra money they will be charging us.
He'll go for sure at the same time as Cameron, returning to the back benches as we get a right wing cabinet and PM....God help us

I wouldn't hold your breath if I were you!Still waiting for his resignation!!

Ha ha, this should have been in the 'Remain' campaign!!That Euromillions lottery thing... You can count that one out too.. If yer not in it, you can't win it!?
Was also surprised to discover that my mother had voted remain, also sighting the damage a leave vote could do to the younger generations. Almost told her how proud I was of her but thought this might sound patronising! She is a Daily Mail reader!Did @tim2000s actually suggest that?
Edit: my 90 year old Aunt voted remain because 'It won't affect me much, but it will be bad for you younger ones if we leave' and she's a Daily Express reader too!

But you wouldn't be complaining about democracy if remain had won. There were clearly many people who voted remain purely on the scare tactics of the remain campaign and press because they were unsure or afraid or voted "in their own best interests".Some of the comments on this thread have got me thinking (yeh sorry about that, a few of you will remember what happened last time I did that...)
So it was a democratic vote. Democracy is good and fair. Democracy gives an equal say to all qualifying voters. That's their right. Surely though duties come hand in hand with rights? If one has the right to vote, then one has the duty to do his/her best to understand what is being voted for and what will be the consequences if that side wins? This is where 'democracy' fails. Far too many were happy to be spoonfed by the newspapers without even questioning that what was printed was correct. Far too many thought they were voting in their own best self interest (great, that's patriotic of them then) only to find out next day that they had probably shot themselves in the foot and voted the wrong way.
It was never right for this important decision to be given to the people when the majority of our elected MPs (of any party) were all for remaining in the EU. So we elected these people to represent us and then took it on ourselves to go against their wishes and beliefs. What a mess! I will sit back and watch the outcome with interest.
Feeling very sick now having read reports of hate notes being pushed through the doors of Polish residents. How can anyone treat a hard working community like that?

We made our decisions already by voting the MPs in to represent us!But you wouldn't be complaining about democracy if remain had won. There were clearly many people who voted remain purely on the scare tactics of the remain campaign and press because they were unsure or afraid or voted "in their own best interests".
Of course most MPs said they were in remain, it was in their own best interests to do so. Are you actually saying that we should just shut up and do as our MPs tell us as a we are all too stupid to make our own decisions? We have been asking for and promised a referendum for years because a large percentage of the population were not happy with the situation. They didn't listen. Now the public has spoken and the MPs have to do something about it. Perhaps if they had taken control and done something sooner, you would not be in this situation.

I don't know.
Do you stop at farms and buy milk, or do you use a supermarket, and buy french at present?
