    British public decides they'd prefer to risk an economic hit rather than continue to accept current level of immigration. Wow.

        @young_maymay because economic hits don't happen to countries in the EU?? And decreasing immigration probably helps economy.

        people voting for their own econ destruction is nothing new; but that's irrelevant, b/c Brexit will not be disastrous.

        markets don't drop 10% with no future consequences... In 2008 ours didn't.
