Yes, there will be less money for everything. And many good doctors will leave the country to live in Europe.Am I naive in assuming there will be more money for nhs services?
the government have ignored the voices of many working class areas. Had they have listened & acted I believe we would have had a remain vote.
things will settle. With that brings hope that we will be able to rebuild our services that have been financially drained
I am also from Wales and ashamed to be Welsh at the moment after the vote. Wales got £245 million a year more from the EU than it paid in., more than any other area in the country. And I have heard "We don't want immigrants". WHAT immigrants???? 95% of people in Wales were BORN in Wales!!!! I live in London where less than half the inhabitants were born in the UK and we all voted to Remain. If you get the right sort of immigrants they are a benefit ....... great Polish builders, wonderful Italian doctors, French restaurants. You will end up with probably more migrants, but they will probably be the ones from the camps in Calais . And I hope Wales will be happy when Britain is made up of just Wales and England because Scotland and Northern Ireland sensibly want to stay in the EU so will break away.I live in Wales and our town has had very little if anything at all from European funding, no jobs have been created since the closure of the areas coalmines so in my opinion being part of Europe does nothing for my town.
Boris and Gove wanted to privatise it before. If they take over they may well do that.Hope this doesn't happen although reading the links it seems likely. I just hope we don't end up like some countries needing semi-private / private healthcare
I watched question time last night & was appalled at the way the leave voters have been perceived. Firstly that they are stupid & have caused armageddon & secondly that it is ' the residents of ****** towns' that have put us in this position. The call for a second vote is a joke. I do not believe we live in a racist country & I believe most members of most cultures have integrated amazingly into Britain. However I do believe that Britains cultures & traditions are being lost & that the government have ignored the voices of many working class areas. Had they have listened & acted I believe we would have had a remain vote. Everyone needs to calm down & realise that Britain traded freely before hand & will do again. I am sure that we will all be made to pay a price for our voice for a couple of years but things will settle. With that brings hope that we will be able to rebuild our services that have been financially drained
Certainly is, and the ironic thing is, the EU was taking that money from the UK government and throwing it into deprived areas all over the UK, Hull and Liverpool being two others, when the UK government has refused to provide any funding.

The same costs, but none of the benefits. Essentially, that means, we would have to pay that £250million per week, then provide subsidies to the farming industry on top of it as well, as the EU will no longer provide the £80 million a week they send back to farmers!I listened to one of Merkel's acolytes this morning state that the best we could hope for if we wanted continued access to the Single Market would be the Norwegian model, where they pay in the same as the UK but ha e zero influence over EU decisions. So if that or any close variant emerges, we shall not see a penny coming back to the entire UK.

In a nutshell, was being part of the EU to stick together and help each other out? bailing Greece out etc? I know there were benefits of staying in but surely having control back of our own country and finances should be OK in the long term? I can understand some countries who need to be part of the EU as they couldn't survive on their own but France want out and so do Italy although I doubt Italy will be better off outside the EU as they are heading towards problems themselves. It may be the worst decision ever made but unless you take the gamble and risk, we'd never know.
I expect the british government to help our farmers, welsh residents alongside scottish and northern irish members.
They should be able to rely on their govenment not anothers for support.
The british govenment needs to get used to helping its members instead of relying on other governments to assist. No more crying austerity. Help out when needed.
How dare they admit to relying on others for its responsibility. Of course they wanted to remain.
Leaving now gives us a chance to evaluate the uks needs. They should have the support they need.
I'm looking forward to a stronger more independant uk.
Like I've said before the results were disclosed.
Look after your own family before helping the neighbours.
Which also means supporting the whole of the uk. Not just Europe.
The british government are responsible for all it's residents, first and foremost.
But that was in the 60s and very early 70s. We have learned a lot since then. Don't judge us with the same ignorance of those days.Cultures and traditions are always being lost, everywhere - it's progress, plus some of them are bad - like the house of lords, casual racism, hunting, slavery and only eating boring food and weak beer.
As for 'Britain traded freely before hand' - are you living on cloud cuckoo land? there had to be hundreds of continually shifting trade deals with every single country individually, there were tariffs, import duties both ways, political bargaining and bartering, it was a nightmare for businesses who trade abroad. Also, countries in the EU get to benefit from preferential trade deals that only a political entity the size of the EU could negotiate, that was one of the main points of it.
lol the public were easily manipulated weren't they?Do the british public believe that.
Do the governments?
It seems ironic that Corbyn, who seems a brexit socialist, may be forced to leave, and Cameron, a conservative remain, is being criticised for not staying in charge, by a public that voted to leave, on socialist issues, and then seemingly backed by a government that wanted the opposite to their vote?
Individuals didn't want to go forward with EU restrictions and demands. They didn't want to compromise any more British values and traditions. They feel they had compromised enough. Their future looked bleak in the EU.Do the british public believe that.

That was kind of them. Was that £1.8 billion of our own money?The loss to Wales will actually amount to billions, because the EU had committed £1.8 billion by 2020 to be invested in regeneration schemes and projects aimed at bringing further outside investment in, and therefore generating huge numbers of jobs.

Yay! You mean we won't want to pay ourselves over the odds and will put in a fair day's work for a fair day's pay? (I prefer the sentence that way round, it points out the duties before the rights). So we can compete with hard working nations? Yay! No strikes or powercuts this time!But that was in the 60s and very early 70s. We have learned a lot since then.

That's unfair.
