No official reports promised "fire and brimstone", but merely a (downwards) correction followed by a retardation of investments. Regarding the pound, yes, it has gone up all day by about 1%... it's just that it kinda dropped 10% before that lol.

Orphan: That can't be right. Surely something must be going on to explain that effect.

Isn't it too tall to be of use as a store? It seems like a 2 story building without windows on the upper floor or a floor for that matter.

One Thing I Don't Get About Brexit
by JW_Rogue inhow did such a weighty decision get put directly in the hands on the average citizen?
and with only a simple majority required?
in the usa the biggest thing that people vote on directly is city building projects or infrastructure.

This is not fair, but I can't resist.
The UK sends 350m to Bruxels every week. They get 160m back and the remaining 190m will likely remain the cost of being part of the single market as by all accounts will be the case. Thus, quitting the EU leaves 350m a week to the NHS:

Mark Sanderson Talk re Belgium visit
by Listener inthe degradation of the governing body members continues on.
mark sanderson gives a talk regarding his visit to belgium for the memorial this year and was travelling from korea to munich to brussels, belgium on the day of the belgium terrorist attacks.he cannot wipe the smirk on his face as he relates his experience, with no regard whatsoever of all those unfortunately affected by the attacks.
in fact, he personally found god's hand affecting him personally, allowing him to attend the memorial as planned and a kh dedication.he is that privileged during his flight travels that internet was available to him, enabling him to catch up on current news and to contact branch's.

Gargamel: Many people's "research" consists of skimming through a highly-opinionated tabloid newspaper whose owner has a history of jumping into bed with right-wing governments.
Indeed. I did this google search for front pages of the daily mail:
Pure FUD. Very few people have any idea about what the EU does as evidences on this thread. Boris Johnson still appears to be selling the idea that the UK can get a much better (in his view) agreement with the EU than Norway, meanwhile I have not seen a single person outside the leave-campaign who even suggests such a thing.

Qcmbr: I agree. The UK should sign article 50 ASAP and get the hell out before they do more damage. That Cameron/Boris Johnson is dragging his feet is a sign the leave campaign have no clue what should follow.

Bohm that is exactly what the commission does, it creates binding regulations and it determines all legislative proposals. But you are wrong it is not 'democratically' elected by the 'people'. Effectively the people's elected representatives do not get any determination on policy.
The commission is not elected democratically, true, but it is appointed every 4 years by democratically elected heads of state and confirmed by the EP. You have to compare this state of affairs to other non-elected (but appointed) positions in every single western democracy.
That "peoples elected representatives do not get any determination on policy" is FUD. The commission cannot make final decisions on EU law or policy. I would strongly advice you not to rely on the leave-campaigns talking points.

Logistics -- that would be sending magazines from the printing place to KHs? (not sure how the arrangement works right now). Do you have any idea/guess about the time frame for when this will be announced and implemented?
I guess that under the great tribulation the secret supermarket will be the last thing to go under lol.
