Pretty sure the quota is a league rule not an EU law. I'd expect the quality of imports to further reduce though and more SL players to go over to the NRL given we've just created a recession for ourselves.

Recession? How on earth have you worked that one out and since when have you become an economics expert?

Well, let's put it this way: another recession has been very much on the cards for some time now, and the economic uncertainty and short-term damage to the economy that Brexit will cause (has already caused, in fact), hardly make it less likely. And with Boris in charge...

"The value of the British pound today dropped more than six percent against the Euro. One pound will now buy you 1.24 Euros, which means holidaymakers travelling to Eurozone countries will get significantly less when exchanging money.

As the Leave campaign gathered momentum, sterling fell to a 31-year low on currency markets and was on course for its biggest one-day loss in history.

It shed around 10 per cent of its value, dropping from US$1.50 to below US$1.35 in a six-hour freefall after ‘Brexit’ was confirmed. Asian markets also tumbled, with Tokyo, Hong Kong and Sydney all falling as trading began.

Pound to dollar exchange rate at lowest level for more than 30 years after Brexit

Meanwhile the value of precious metals like gold, regarded as a safe option at times of turmoil, increased."

Professor Karl Dayson, associate dean (Research and Innovation) at Salford University, said: “As predicted, the stock markets have already taken fright in response to the news, with the pound plummeting to its lowest levels since 1985, the FTSE falling more than 500 points, and the Bank of England’s Mark Carney saying he will do whatever he can to protect the banks.
“This is likely to be followed by two to seven years of disruption, and a probable lumpy recession.

I'm no expert but my holiday in a weeks time is getting more expensive

Let's not get into a political debate about it. We could argue this until the cows come home and nobody would be right because none of us know what is going to happen.

stpatricks if you are going on holiday in a week and you haven't exchanged your money before the vote you are a bit of a silly billy aren't you ha ha (joke btw)

So the other recessions and especially 2008 were Brexit's fault too?
WHEN the next recession comes, and it will, and when the pound dips or unemployment fluctuates, it will ALL be down to today's vote. It's inevitable that anything that happens in the future will be as a result of whether we'd stayed in or left a common market.

All the Brexit means is we've shot our economy in the foot for the short term, things will get back to the way they were and we will still end up under the same rules and regs of the EU as we always have but with no say in the matter.

The arguement to leave was because the EU were unelected and we didn't get a say, well that will carry on but with no say whatsoever.

And add to that our glorious leader has just thrown the towel in because of the mess he's created. As Captain Manwaring would say "Stupid boy"

Now we will have to pick up the pieces as always, they peddled the nationalistic pish and got te working class vote, bit silly if you ask me.

All in all both sides were as limp as a wet rag and I blame the politicians due to years of ignoring the masses, this leave vote was purely down to mass immigration and most not even from the EU.

Absolute bonkers.
