Am I the only one who finds it strange that the map of England is painted yellow-black? And why do so many people remember the feral Russians in the comments? And then there are the tits, well, they were puzzled, except that the fish don’t know what it is, well, advanced mammals have gone through everything. This island has always lived from outside, a culture of parasites and pirates, they’re simply not familiar with anything else, therefore, nothing one should not expect anything else.

Jokes aside, this is the beginning of the big end!

It is unlikely that the American machines will now be launched to pacify the minds of the disobedient and either the results of the referendum will be recognized as purely advisory for parliament and parliament will accept the will of the states, or, as has already begun, they will hold a second referendum as required by the losing side, or they will drag out this matter for so long that about the results Everyone will forget the referendum and everything will go as usual, and the states will not allow the machine they themselves created to fall apart.
