Just read that as far as Brussels is concerned, UK is Out. Does that mean we can stop paying and obeying their rules right now ?

It'll take a couple of years I expect. I wonder if it means that 'they' will continue with stopping of Menthol cigs in 2020- bit shallow, I know!

I would think that taking those rules and using them to wipe your *** would be a good idea.

Brussels needs to read its own rules.

The referendum does not oblige the UK government to leave now or anytime. It is a request by the population.

If and when the UK decides to invoke article 50 the clock starts.

Then there is 2 years to dort it all out.

That was announced directly by the EU the next morning .......case of they don't want a domino affect and other rich nations deciding to do the same and the longer the exit goes on the more likely the others will find the balls to do that same.

The UK will play by their rules, how the EU play is up to them but expect dirty practise from the EU it is a black hole where they have more money than they know what to do with and they really don't want to lose their salaries, their free housing, free private education for the children, their personal EU workers subsidised only shopping centre, Olympic swimming pool, gym and freebie professional trainers, in fact their own EU workers private subsidised city

Yes. Refuse to pay your tax! That'll show Brussels. And tell them to take back their awful Sprouts and raspberry beer too!

No, not out until Article 50 is invoked. Brussels said they want Article 50 invoked ASAP because they're sick of British whining. It is damaging economies all over the world. Selfish.

Go ahead. No one cares what you do.
