they really voted to leave... I haven't expected that. :/
I really hope that the scots will revote to leave UK and stay in the EU.
The worst this vote has done to europe was supporting all the nationalistic parties. I really hope that all these worst case scenarios will hit britain hard. I just feel pity for the 50% of people who wanted to remain :/
That said, Britain's finally given the EU a really serious test to see if it's gonna hold. If Scotland leaves the centuries-old UK to join the EU, there's no legitimacy greater than that. And if the British economy manages to outshine the European single market somehow, RIP EU.
I suspect we'll see Britain go for a Norway-style deal where they're basically bound by the vast majority of EU decisions but just don't get a vote. It's going to be hilarious when Britain no longer has veto power to say, stop Turkey from joining, but would still have to deal with the consequences of Turkish EU membership.
Britain has a huge trade deficit with EU countries. Really nothing they can't get from USA / Japan / Canada / South Africa / Switzerland and Norway. I think the EU countries will miss that trade a lot more than the UK will. My feeling is the UK will come out of this very nicely
Well you're getting ahead of yourself if you think the EU will be around in a few years :p
the evolution develops always forward not backward, although Brexit is a weird exception caused by backwarded minds and it looks very much like they will try to undo the vote.

The EU is not evolutionary, it's a copy of the US just done in Europe.
