Welll UK BMW prices are going to be interesting...

Well it will be "interesting" to see what happens to prices of Bee Ms in the UK after the vote for financial suicide here...

Hopefully I'll be lucky that I now have my contract through, but I would expect rises, potentially steep rises soon.

I feel bad for Jag, just when they started to get things turned around. I can't believe the majority of voters chose to leave, makes me think trump 16 could happen. End times.....

Hey, at least we aren't the only ones . . .

Also, I'm calling all the economic fallout from Brexit "Brexit Wounds."

Jag an Indian based company (Tata) and most manufacturers produce cars all over the world and offset currency fluctuations. If the dollar goes up does BMW stop shipping X vehicles out of the US? End times if Hillary is elected we will all have gov't jobs until the country goes bankrupt.

Jag is estimating Brexit to cost them 1 Billion, may be owned by tata but there still made in the uk (for the most part)

Full disclosure, I am voting for Hillary.

My wife was born in Mexico, and dad was a pow in Vietnam. Plus I have black friends, and I consider women people.

Some Trump Quotes:

“When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending the best. They’re not sending you, they’re sending people that have lots of problems and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bring crime. They’re rapists… And some, I assume, are good people.”

“I will build a great wall – and nobody builds walls better than me, believe me – and I’ll build them very inexpensively. I will build a great, great wall on our southern border, and I will make Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words.”

“Our great African-American President hasn’t exactly had a positive impact on the thugs who are so happily and openly destroying Baltimore.”


"You know, it really doesn’t matter what the media write as long as you’ve got a young, and beautiful, piece of ass.”


“He's not a war hero. He's a war hero because he was captured"

For further spin, I live in Scotland which voted to r main in the EU. Specifically I live in Edinburgh (home of the festival) where 73% voted to stay in the EU.

Our first minister ( we have a devolved government) is making an attempt to see if,as this region voted so strongly to stay, it could remain an entity in the EU.

I don't envy you Trump, and the scary thing is he appeals to the same demographic as those who swung so hard for Brexit. A University lecturer friend of mine has postulated that we are now in the era of "post factual politics"...

Best part is he showed up there and tweeted some nonsense about how Scotland took there country back, he did not even bother to check to see that you overwhelmingly voted to stay in the EU.

Look on the plus side, if Scotland can pull off staying in the EU, you will get a ton of "migrants" from the rest of the UK, mostly with you know, advanced degrees. Donald Trump is such a spoon. I think he actually would have been president if he could keep his mouth shut, but he has insulted so many people, at this point its going to be tough.

Now the pound can join the other white man peso...the Canadian dollar

Don't worry about it. Brexit is totally ruining the conspiracy theorists version of the world where the EU runs everything. They can't even get Switzerland to join and can't control most of the countries in it. There are 3 'main' countries in the EU. Now one is simply moving out. Is Spain or Italy going to take Britain's place?
