Could I ask what all the grans-netters would do if they were in charge of things right now? What would you like to see happen in this country, regardless of whether you voted to stay or go, and which party you favout? What would be your priorities? Margaret
I don`t have much in the way of savings, and my interest rate is already at 0.1%, so can`t get much worse! I`m hoping to see the return of Britain being able to do as it wants, and not have to dance to the EU`s tune. Do you think that all the products which had to change names will change back again now?
I have savings and property. I'm not worried about the market, it will bounce back. In fact it was lower last month. As for the property, if it drops in value, so be it, it's far too expensive anyway. A good thing I say.
Yes jalima. Very nice about the cheap mortgages I'm sure. But what about people like my singleton teacher daughter. She has worked so hard over the last twenty odd years, and yes she has savings now, through not spending every cent she's earned. Why should should she be on the losing side? She is a very worried woman at the moment.
As Jalima says, the decision is made. Please let's not forget that a large amount of the population were always going to be upset whatever the result. It is what it is, let's please all move on.
Margaret none of the things you suggest are anything to do with the EU, but we're political decisions by the government of the day. Those things could have been reinstated any time.
But - what is the point of wasting time and energy on recriminations, nastiness and what-ifs
As the saying goes, 'Relatives you've got whether you like them or not, friends they come and go'
We abandoned our relatives in favour of our new friends, now those friends have been rejected by a majority of the voters. Will our relatives still love us?
Sorry I asked. I thought we might get constructive answers, like giving back the ability to councils to build council housing, or re-opening some of the cottage hospitals, so that people could recouperate there and free up surgical beds. I will shut up Margaret
Well we do have savings but the drop from 0.3% to zero isn't going to send us to the workhouse. And someone else has said interest rates will rise along with prices etc. Scaremongers the lot.
