Yes it will. Even though triggering it will make great troubles, I think refusing it will make bigger ones, and could threaten the democracy in this country. So I do not see anyone blocking it.

Lets all hope the brexit creates chaos and uncertainty that brings more people to Bitcoin.

Why not wish prosperity and joy instead? People will put their money towards keeping their children alive rather than a speculative asset that lives on the internet if there is chaos and uncertainty.

Just a get rich quick kid.
If they would have the abilities and chances to be a greedy banker they would 1000% do it.

But hey guys if you dont have 3-4 digits of btc i doubt you will become a millionaire soon Smiley

I’m not in the euro zone but tome it looks like the disintegration of it, it is just a matter of time, the brexit will led to other countries to consider whether or not they want to keep being part of the EU.

What's bitcoin? Even when Britain was part of the EU had changed its pound. Just when crumbling the foundations of the familiar is hard. God forbid you live in an era of change. The British soon discover.

this now parliament in english still discussion and vote about revoting again about brexit

And ignoring the referendum? Then the people, who voted for Brexit in current conditions will be proven right.

As for globalism - it obviously reached its limitations. Living conditions in the west peaked around 1980 and are stagnating since then, while working conditions and security actually got much worse. Only people making money from globalism today are deputies of banks and corporations, including politicians.
They are stagnating because after the Union was formed the West had to find money to lend to the East. These countries, that used to be part of another Union in the 80s had much worse living conditions. The problem is that the West would like to get some of the money back to improve their own state and it's not gonna happen anytime soon. We may see more exits in the future. BTW brexit is already a reality, it's going to happen this year.

You have very distorted view on how the world works, I am afraid.

West didnt have to find "money" to buy out the east. East was plundered the same way, that Africa once was. Except the goods didnt go to average westerner, but to multinationals. Represented by EU today. Capital transfer from east to west is overwhelming today, you could very well say, that Poles and Romanians pay their taxes so that german and french pensioners (including migrants) are taken care off.

In fact, living conditions in the west were stagnating as early as 1980, but you wouldnt notice, because chinese made televisions and computers got cheaper. Did your housing and food, though? Did your working hours got cut? I highly doubt it.

It is not that European Union is evil or unjust. It is a tool. Tool for multinationals, not for the working class people.

They're charging full bore into it and hardly anyone has piped up about it not being the best of ideas. I think we'll find out in a protracted and agonising manner that early optimism might have been unjustified.

Most people polled said they wouldn't vote for it if they ended up worse off. Well, it's bleedin' obvious you'll end up worse off. And the stat about 'what is the eu' being one of the number one searches after the vote says plenty.

The referendum question was purely about being in the EU. It said nothing about leaving the single market or customs union or even immigration. And another thing I find a tad mysterious is that non EU immigration, which is something the UK does have far more control over, has usually been higher but no one seems to have done anything to address that. That probably includes students, but I assume the EU figure does too.

The sum of it will probably add up to broadly similar immigration than before, more expense and hassle operating abroad, humongous expense in terms of disentangling and the country plenty more divided.

Result.

BREXIT WILL happen or there will be a revolution in the UK. It will be slow going and likely it should be, so as to ease themselves into the transition, but make no doubt, the people won't be silenced. Globalism is dying. This is a trend occurring all around the globe.

The current version of globalism means rising unemployment and illegal immigration for the wealthier nations. They don't gain much out of it, and the local companies are struggling to compete against the foreign firms. Unless the situation changes, the support for globalism will continue sliding. 
Globalism allows you to monopolize the economy of different countries. This leads to the fact that large international companies wiping out small local firms. Instead, the people get cheaper goods.

If brexit will actually going to happen it is unclear whether the whole United Kingdom may suffer a big loss as well as Great Britain. The best thing to do is to follow Le Pen, France presidential candidate, her idea was to make pounds a common currency. They will make another currency but they will make pounds a common currency. If all countries will agree to that idea that they will make their own currency but they will use pounds as a common currency then there will be no economic breakdown.

You see Villy,

while you might be onto something, the thing is, that entire idea of  western democracy is based upon notion that the people are the sovereign. Politicians and leaders base all their legitimacy on elections. Therefore blatant ignorance of democratic nation-wide vote that was called in by government in the first place would amount to high treason. Not just of the people, but of cultural identity aswell. If we will forfeit democracy for short term gains (eventhough that is quite speculative in the case of EU), then we might lose much, much more than money and time. 
I'm afraid that as soon as the UK leaves the EU then the problems begin with Scotland. She doesn't want to leave the EU and could repeat the referendum on secession from the UK. What then?

Can't wait for all the people who voted for Brexit getting exactly what they voted for, which is the tories grinding them into the fucking dirt!  Wave goodbye to your workers' rights.  Here's what the ruling class managed to achieve with EU protections in place:

Quote
The number of workers without guaranteed hours or basic employment rights has risen by more than 660,000 in the past five years

Just imagine what they'll achieve when they throw the EU protections out the window because that's what you gormless plebs wanted.  But you'll still somehow find a way to blame it on immigration.  Then, after your rights are gone, enjoy your harsher economy as wages stagnate, the prices of all the things you buy continue to rise and the portions continue to shrink.  Then when all your money is gone and you get ill, it's fine, the NHS will sort you out.  Oh wait, no, that's going to be sold off piece by piece until there's nothing left.  No money, no healthcare.  

Just remember, it's exactly what you wanted.  To take back control and hand it over on a silver platter to the tories.  I hope you get everything you deserve.

I can't say it's right or not I'm not from UK, but I think that if leaving the EU is not beneficial for the country, I would place politicians explained to the people that this is not correct and asked them to re-vote.

Globalism is an attempt to make their country more powerful. Besides, the more the country is divided, the more they will trade wars and trade barriers. Is it better to fight? I think you are right.
