New Jobs and investments from Boeing even though we are leaving the EU:

The UK government will buy nine new marine patrol planes from Boeing in a decade-long deal worth £3bn.
The Ministry of Defence's deal for the submarine-hunting P-8A Poseidon aircraft also covers training, maintenance and support.
Boeing will build a new £100m facility for the planes at RAF Lossiemouth in Moray.
The US company will also deliver 50 Apache AH-64E attack helicopters to the British Army.
Boeing expects to create about 2,000 new UK jobs in the coming years by expanding its maintenance and support operations for both military and commercial customers in Europe.
Prime Minister David Cameron announced the P-8A deal on Monday at the start of the Farnborough Airshow.
He said it showed that the UK was open for business despite the referendum vote to leave the EU.
"Whatever uncertainties our country faces, I want the message to go out loud and clear: the UK will continue to lead the world in both civil and defence aerospace," Mr Cameron said.
That is some very good news to hear, I have heard a few pieces of news like this recently after the referendum and it does fill more confidence :)Quote:

The poll on HxF is interesting too. Given the younger demographic of this forum, you would expect - as with previous polls - a handful of eurosceptics on here and the majority in favour of staying: yet it's virtually a 50/50 split on the forum. Habbox is a lot more anti-EU/eurosceptic than the national age average. :PQuote:

Question. Is anyone who voted Remain now happy with the result? Do they think things have turned out better than they initially believed? Vice versa too.
