When investor’s panic, and there’s blood in the streets-that is the time to buy. Take your profit (Sell) when the news is good.

The group on Varney are all saying Cameron certainly will be out. They said he campaigned too hard on staying in to be left in.

The PM will talk before the British Market Opens.

Bolton thinks Cameron will resign.

Poland’s PM said it might be time to rethink the EU.

The discussion on Varney’s show on FBN tonight has been fascinating. Great stuff!

"So you think the EU is a good thing? Haave you seen “Brexit the Movie”? Seriously, you think the EU is good or what?"

It depends entirely on your personal circumstances. If you are running a British company which exports goods or services to the EU then Brexit is likely to be very bad. (I have a friend who is the Managing Director of a medium sized British biotech company and we have discussed it at length.)

On the other hand, if you are an unemployed young person living in a run down post-industrial British city then Brexit is good, due to increased job opportunities and more accommodation availability.

But leaving the EU will damage the UK's GDP and it will take years for them to return to their current level of economic prosperity.

...Obola and his henchpeeps want a war with Russia it seems, no one else does (other than NATO).

You mean the NATO that allowed itself to be used as a tail that wags the dog to wipe out an entire foreign country and destroy it's infrastructure and set off the greatest refugee exit into Europe which has now destabilised civil order in a dozen countries...The same NATO the muslim Tatars in The Crimea demanded do for them what they did for the muslims of KOSOVO?

That NATO? Of course they want to go to war against Russia. Other than that, there is no reason for its existence!

The North Atlantic Treaty Organisation is nothing but a bunch of bullies, behind which a gang of criminal governments hide their evil intentions. You can easily tell who they are, by looking at the photographs of all the leaders standing with Gaddafi, smiling and shaking his hand, before they bombed his nation into rubble.

Since you use British spelling and your one page of comments on FR only touch a few topics, I wonder why your name indicates big support for Trump. His viewpoints are definitely anti-EU, anti-globalist/NAFTA etc. Another point is that there is more to life than money.

The EU has squashed many formerly profitable British enterprises, and in other countries.

Have you seen “Brexit The Movie”? Yes or no?

You are so right, Fred. Absolutely. I loathe NATO as much as I loathe the UN.

wow christine ananpour — blood is all but coming from her eyes!

cnn talking head says this is the most historic change of direction in britain since 1662(?) when cromwell executed the king of england.

consensus seems to be camoron is out, and that seems to have flipped within the last hour (!!)

global leader comments are coming in (poland, australia, etc). obama is on record of trying to extort the UK to voting REMAIN and by coincidence, that foreign policy noob trump just happens to be in the uk now that they have rejected Obama’s advice; and where is hillary?

christine ananpour has a difference of opinion with the tory guy (foreign secretary?) she is interviewing and she uses her clenched fist and holds it inches away from his body, trying to goad him
into conceding that brexit is bad for the people. the guy insists that democracy has been well served by the referendum. amanpour is livid at least until the guy disowns farage.
