An excellent result and a fantastic opportunity for the British people from wherever to demonstrate 'again' their inner resolve and positively overcome the nay-sayers once and for all; important for everyone to work together with ALL nations of this World for the betterment of everyone and nut just them Brussels, or is it Strasburg this week, bureaucrats...
Over the years foreign companies have come to the UK to utilise the resources of the British people and that includes 'our' positive attitudes to problem solving; having worked in numerous other countries around the World I've been able to experience this at first hand.
And I hope Cameron stays in Government as I think him the best Prime Minister we've had for many a year...
And YES WE bl**dy CAN!!!!Shame on them that think we can't...
They had plenty of time to warm up the UK on the benefits of the EU and or the UK to the EU, didn't take that opportunity and instead chose to try and scare the voters in to it. Quite barmy imho and has clearly backfired on them.Ex EU president Prodi has just been interviewed by sky live and said that things will go on as normal as its not in the EUs best interest to cut ties or inflict levy's on trade. It was interesting that he said the biggest loss to EU was British Army and their counter intelligence capabilities. Says it all really.

I wonder how much leaving the EU will increase the costs of our Audi's.
Because the price Audi UK pay Audi AG for the cars that they sell in this country is based on the £ to Euro exchange rate. That has already gone down by 10% since the referendum result was reduced. It may well change up or down but that may well give Audi UK the excess to increase the prices if it wants to.Not at all, why should it... And we have three of 'em...
Nothing or little is gonna change other than a big call for referendum in other EU states (Holland first of the many I'll bet) and when that thought sinks into the arrogant heads of the EU bureaucrats I suspect there'll be bigger changes to the EU bureaucracy than anything we're going to be seeing here.
Chance for ALL we-can-do Brits to get on with it; decision now made, get on with it...

And it'll go back up again in the coming few days. Nothing's going to change. Stop listening to the media hype and frenzy.
I can't believe Boris Johnson is being touted as the next Prime minister. Where did that come from.
The Conservative party cannot seriously consider him as the next party leader.
Onwards and upwards.
The euro is about 3 cents down compared to other days and the FTSE100 ended higher today than what it did at the start of the week. The amount of spin the media is putting on it is unreal.
They have just increased the prices on the like for like new face lifted A3 so to say they will not increase their prices is not quite correct. They will increase prices if they feel they can get away with it related to the competition. As you say Audi spends mega-money in the UK and that money has to come from somewhere. If they are having to pay more to Audi AG for the cars in the first place then they are quite likely to increase the prices as they do already several times a year.Audi won't increase prices if they want to sell cars here in the UK, period.
And here's why: yet another Audi invite arrived today to attend a country mansion with food and goodies laid on to experience Audi cars, any Audi cars, and that's gonna cost £££££s.
And I've been having these for the past 5-years.
Now, I've a friend in Nuremberg who travels regularly to Ingolstadt to visit, yep, you've guessed it, Audi GmbH; and he's an Audi owner; and not once even ever has he and/or his friends had such an invitation...
Audi spends mega money here in the UK to get us to buy their cars...
Ya think that's gonna change anytime soon...
I was definitely one of the minority. But very happy to be.
And I see that everything has returned to normally after all the blown out of proportion hype. Mate sent me this message last night.
The Prime Minister resigned. The £ plummeted. The FTSE 100 lost significant ground. But then the £ rallied past February levels, and the FTSE closed on a weekly high: 2.4% up on last Friday, its best performance in 4 months. President Obama decided we wouldn't be at the 'back of the queue' after all and that our 'special relationship' was still strong. The French President confirmed the Le Touquet Calais border agreement would stay in place. The President of the European Commission stated Brexit negations would be 'orderly' and stressed the UK would continue to be a 'close partner' of the EU. Morgan Stanley denied reports it would shift 2,000 staff overseas (at it had said before the vote). The CBI, vehemently anti-Brexit during the referendum campaign, stated British business was resilient and would adapt. Several countries outside the EU stated they wished to begin bi-lateral trade talks with the UK immediately. If this was the predicted apocalypse, it was a very British one. It was all over by teatime. Not a bad first day of freedom.
Doooooooooooooomed
Nah, media knee jerk reaction to flog some rags for the next fortnight.
We're going to be fine and probably, even better than we hoped for.

She needs a wee slap, Jake; and more than just the one....
