It's unreal. We seriously just broke everything. We broke our economy, the pound affects the dollar, which affects everyone else, so we have damaged the entire world's economy, the UK is breaking up (literally, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Gibraltar are seriously discussing leaving in different ways), we validated racism here (the numbers of non-Brits and non-white people being shouted out at school and in the streets that now they'll have to leave is appalling), some EU countries have already begun sacking their British employees (Austria, I think), and other EU countries now have right-wingers demanding their own referendum, so we have shaken the EU. If the EU falls apart with an aggressive Russia in the wings, we're all in trouble, including the US, who always worry about Russia. Oh, and on top of that, we've kicked off Irish issues only weeks before the Ulster marching season.

It wasn't bad for a day's work, was it? I hope that tomorrow will see some more positive courses being worked out - it's even possible that we might have a second referendum and not leave - which would be good!

I'm still enough in shock that it's so dreadful it's almost funny. Except it isn't. If we ended the world, we're all terribly, terribly sorry. We didn't know it would happen - we thought we were an island.
