I agree, but if you think we're going to get less of that with BoJo or Gove in charge you're mad. Leaving the EU is the accelerationist argument, which always fucks over the poorest.

Weirdly, a lot of the actual members of the party seem to like him quite a lot and voted him in by quite a large margin.

The PLP is the dumbass here; they still don't see that Corbyn as leader is but one expression of the loss and anger that's all around Britain and has now resulted in Brexit.

Maybe, but globalization isn't going anywhere. It'll just have different forms. We need a proper socialist alternative if we want to survive this bullshit and Corbyn is the closest thing the UK has.

Well gently caress.

Pros
- Cameron has resigned

Cons
- Everything else

I mean this is poo poo for a lot of people and I'm fairly lucky my job is probably still safe, but my husband is employed by a Canadian company with Welsh funding so... who the gently caress knows. We were about to make an offer to buy our first house today, really not sure what to do now! I've seen stories that house building companies and banks are taking some of the worst hits but I have absolutely no idea what that means for interest rates, lending criteria, house prices etc. Ugh.
