As we are hours away from the Brexit referendum, the outcome might have multiple economic and political repercussions beyond the British shores.

One of the repercussions the political elites seem to be most scared of, is the emboldening of other nations to follow the example. This is why leaders from all over the world have been trying to influence the British to vote for Remain.

If indeed the referendum ends up decided as LEAVE, the Dutch will probably be next with a referendum, and from there it might snowball (or domino effect).

If I were in the UK, I would vote to Leave. While I am aware of possible short term financial instability, I think that will be short lived as all sides will want to enter free trade agreements in short order.

I see this as a simple question of sovereignty, and the interests are simply too divergent to agree to a surrender of sovereignty to the EU.

I am thinking that if the British indeed vote to leave, this could be a meaningful difference in favor of Trump in November. If the British can do it, so can we!

Thoughts?
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

For the long term future of Britain it's a no brainer to vote leave, however I think the remain campaign  has scared enough people with the economic argument.
I hope to be proven wrong today

Just wondering, what is the typical orthodox Jewish vote there going for?

Many are voting (or want to vote) leave. The local Jewish councillors are urging people to vote remain. Some of the reasons given are ease of marrying people from abroad, ease of claiming benefits and potential shechita issues.

There is a lot of scaremongering from both sides, more so from the remain camp. That scaremongering could influence the average Joe. Polls are pretty tight though and there's no way of knowing right now which way it'll go.

As I've stated several times. In my mind the only thing that really matters in a POTUS election is SCOTUS nominations.

Do you now prefer Hillary?

Possibly, probably, and likely. But not definitely. And even if remain wins, there are still other votes coming up in Europe.

I thought it's the EU that poses a threat to schita and mila. Reason to Brexit.

Brexit anyone?

Is that the new Onion site?

I wasn't stating facts. I was just repeating what the Jewish remain campaigners have been saying.

I would say that the right thing to do for anyone with יראת שמיים is not to rely on their own judgment but to ask their Rebbe or Rov and act accordingly.
