Also on Gove, they have quotes of him saying he never wants to be prime minister and he could just back a Boris bid, so watch that space i guess. Smart money should be on Theresa May She is a remainer I highly doubt she would win, maybe get into the final 2 but not win. | ||

Do you guys think this will happen? And with Wales and Northern Ireland? scotland will almost certainly hold another referendum within 3 years, as a large part of why they voted to stay was that uk would continue to be part of the eu. there were calls by nationalists in northern ireland to have a referendum on unifying ireland, but that's to be expected. i wont happen, partly because of the huge amount of civil unrest it would cause. wales will be wales | ||

Boris is just too... idk edit: This is either the end or the start of UKIP as a major player No and No. UKIP is a one policy party, so they've got no real staying power you might see a couple jump ship but at most they will just influence other parties immigration policies. Gove can fuck off, so can Boris, I'm just hoping for a level headed relative unknown. | ||

Do you guys think this will happen? And with Wales and Northern Ireland? Any Scottish Referendum has to be approved by Westminster under the Edinburgh agreement and I'm guessing any question about a second referendum will be answered with "HAHAHAHAHAHAFuckYou" Ireland, I doubt will change much, Sinn Fien aren't exactly the powerhouse they were in the good old days of the IRA Wales voted Leave, so nothing will change there | ||

I think there must be a better option but I really cannot think of a good candidate for the conservatives. I think Michael Gove may have a chance. He was not a popular education minister but he seemed okay at justice. Although that was mainly undoing Grayling's work. | ||

What I'm worried about is, that the influense of the nationalist and racist parties will rise across Europe, as a result of the referendum. And we all know what happens when racists rule over divided european countries... Maybe this is the start of the end of the 70 year peace... | ||
