Some of us care, but at the same time, we know that who's elected does not matter in the least.

That will no longer be a problem. I heard they are leaving.

I had to google the term to find out what it means. It sounds like a good idea. Being in the UK, maybe you can help us get a head start?

Makes me want to dig some old Heinlein books and the Notebooks of Lazarus Long. His views on politics (at least in his books) was good for a laugh and a thought

Amen!
I particularly like Lazarus Long's dictum about strong drink:
"Beware of strong drink; it can make you shoot at tax collectors - and miss!"
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Facts:
1. UK is member of EU
2. UK people voted yes for the referendum to leave EU
3. After this, UK is still member of EU!

Yes, but now we're the player on the bench that has had a bust up with the manager and knows we won't be playing again so feel free to rubbish the rest of the team, point out the failings of the other players, and send Instagram's of the coach's bald head and knobbly knees! On which note, I see it's kick-off time in the Euros!

Wrong! As long as the British government did not formally submits his resignation in Brussels, it remains for the time being as it was.
[Edit Keep in mind Google helped me]
In the broadest sense similar to a divorce of a married couple. Even if they both agree to divorce ... as long as the contract has not officially terminated, the couple remains married. So it is with such contracts

If we do it now we are at a disadvantage. We will wait for the markets to settle - appoint our negotiation team and do it then.

Not me, why I should? What is my interesting that UK joins EU? I'm living in Switzerland and we are also not in EU. But ... we should all/both be in a Thing like EEA.

Oooh sorry missed that you are from US... of course than not. Of course in US it is still common that North will still use the south as slaves. The only difference to before is the Location of the meridian

I'm from the UK. Just don't think Freedom of Movement for people works when we don't have equal states. We need immigration yes but not on an un-checked scale. The common currency and other EU factors mean that more people from Italy say come to work in the UK than the other way round.

Yes yes, I see all these Problems also (and in Switzerland we feel this much more or at least equal than any other European Country; about 20%...). But still on my (very advanced) Age I see more chances if the European countries works together. I don't like EU but in my opinion an EEA is very ok.
And thank you that you have overlooked my inappropriate comment before.

The problem is it has to be all or nothing. The Euro doesnt work with a lot of the poorer countries. To make it work they have to create one single Country - they won't do that.
