51.9% of Brits
And they want to leave for many reasons including border policy, an eu trade regulations, and also they dont want to pay to help other members of eu anymore, to name a few
The 52% that voted for Leaving the EU mostly believe that the EU has put many rules an regulations against the UK, and has restricted their power in Europe, even though the UK has the most power and most influential in Europe and worldwide. We can already see that the Pound has fallen by 8%, and Scotland is likely to have another independence referendum as 60%+ of Scotland voted to remain in the EU.

Long story short: we're the EU's bitch. We've become sick of it so we've left. The end.
People have been lied to by those campaigning for 'brexit', by leaving the eu we have merely isolated ourselves and made ourselves poorer. Immigration will most likely not be affected by this too.
But the economic effects have already started, with the pound being at it's lowest point since 1985 and already have lost their place as the 5th biggest world economy to France
It's a good thing to leave because the EU threatens the sovereignty of it's member nations.
And fuck Scotland for choosing to remain as part of the UK electorate, then bitching and moaning about it's independence again when the UK does something they don't like.
Also, the current economic down turn is caused by the market being unsure of what's going to happen. Once everyone realizes there won't be any changes at all for some time it'll stabilize.
The UK has a stronger economy than France and Germany, as they are the ones who actually grew as opposed to going down. The current trend down is just a knee jerk reaction. We'll see how it works in maybe a couple months time. People aren't putting much stock into the sterling because it's going in a relatively unfamiliar direction, and investors aren't sure how well that will go for them. But as soon as they see whether it is a sound decision, and benefits investors, or "Bankrupts the UK" I'll save my opinion on the British market and economy for later.
Mainly they want britain to go back to tea and scones britian. And will not realised that they screwed their country and will have to rejoin until about a year
If it is mainly about immigration, then leaving the EU will do nothing to stop that. At best they won't be mandated to take a quota of the immigrants, but I doubt that will stop them from coming. It has been my experience, at least in my country, that banning something just drives it underground. Either way the vote had swung there would have been nasty ripple effects, because either way, there would have been about half of the citizenry unhappy. The only thing they can do now that the voting is over and done with is to come together and build a Britain that all of them can be happy with.
