I'm a proud Brexit supporter. Like the ERM stupidity (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Wednesday) the economic chaos is the side effect of project fear. McDonald's did not run out of burgers. Godzilla did not rise from the ocean and eat everyone on the east coast. The FTSE 100 has regained all its losses. The only reason the pound is still weak is the talk from the bank of England about emergency rate cuts and I expect the FTSE 250 (which is only being mentioned at all because it hasn't yet regained all its losses) will be back to normal within weeks.
I suspect most of the Northern Ireland remain voters were the nationalists who want to leave Britain anyway. Also they are free to cross over the border into the republic (after all the EU believes the mass movement of millions of people has no negative consequences).
Scotland doesn't have a common border with a EU country but if they don't choose independence, the remainers have at least 2 years to migrate across the channel. If Scotland actually want independence then they have my best wishes, but I can't understand how anyone who claims to want independence could think being in the E.U. is a good idea.
Finally there was a newspaper front page 20 odd years ago that had an headline something like God's Verdict on the EU. Denmark had rejected a EU treaty and won Euro 1992 despite being eliminated in the qualifying competition. The U.K. accepted the treaty and suffered significant flooding. Coincidence? Now consider the Euro 2016 results. Northern Ireland were eliminated the 1st match after the remain vote. Wales voted to leave and are already talking of their greatest ever result (and on current form have a decent chance in the semi-final against an off-form Portugal). On the other hand, I admit I though the Brexit vote could mean an England v Wales final but England followed Northern Ireland out the door and I won't pretend to have the slightest idea why (other than playing the worst football in the tournament).
