I spent a long time not wanting to write about the EU vote. I wanted people to educate themselves as to why we needed to stay, but alas I woke up this morning to the news that we have left the EU.
It hurts because the people who voted for us to leave are the people its not really going to affect or people who have been lied to.
The moment we got the news on the exit, wanker Farage backtracked and denied that they said that £350 million could go to the NHS. The moment that it was called the pound suddenly fell. In under 24 hours, the country fucked its own currency.
The leave campaign was based on lies, fears and racism. We are not going to get our jobs back, we are not going to get our money back. Those immigrants you have been bitching about, didn’t choose to live in this shit hole of a country, they had to. They have been doing the jobs we don’t want to do.
We had maternity leave, sick leave, holiday pay and actual work laws to stop discrimination and unfair dismissal because of the EU. Those jobs you have been fighting for, no longer care about your health and well being. Hell they are probably going to be sold on overseas.
Violence towards people of colour and queer people have and will continue to rise. UK born POC have been assaulted and abused because right wing cunts think they shouldn’t be in their country. Guess what, white people are not the only people who have a right to be here.
I’ve already had to unfriend and block a few people who I considered as friends. Not because they voted to leave but the racist bullshit they spewed after “they won”. No one fucking won, the people who are happy about this are the people who fucked our country up in the first place.
Now Cameron has resigned (which is the only fucking plus to this) we are going to be stuck with Boris. That stupid idiot is going to be running what remains of this place. Scotland wants out, Northern Ireland will want out, and I don’t blame them. Boris couldn’t even run London let alone the rest of the UK.
Within the next few days and weeks we will finally find out how this is going to pan out for us, but until then stay safe people. This is going to be a bumpy ride.
