Ah "the sins of the voter", more like the sins of uninformed, uneducated voters. Majority of voters are that way also but this one will be felt for ages. Good job! The google search results for UK residents spiked asking "What is the EU?" So essentially, they ended up voting for something they have no idea about. They just want them damn dirty Muslims out of the county. I don't know why people are trying to sugar coat it. Call a spade a spade, they are ****ing racists.

After all, international finance whizzes round the world between 3 major centers; New York, London, Tokyo. Why should that change?

Why should that change? It will change. London is going bye bye as far as being a major financial center. Companies will want to pull out and not do business anymore there. If you look at the map of the voters. Most of the people that were voting in London were for the UK staying in the EU. I wonder why? Ask yourself why and you'll come up with the answer.

This has nothing to do with what the people want. The people voted and that means they will work to leave the EU but it doesn't happen overnight is what I'm saying. Just because the people voted doesn't mean voila they are no longer part of the EU. They have to go through the process of extracting themselves legally.
