I'm not a natural Tory and a Tory landslide was never going to be a good thing - but yes, I voted for Brexit and if UKIP had stood I'd have voted for them.Comment

As one of the few actual contractors on here, the result will keep the market ticking along nicely.

There is not 1 single "contract market".
There are many.
If you are not in control of your market, you are in the wrong market.Comment
