#Brexit is the first time Britain's leaving without bloodshed: The best tweets about the Britain's exit from EU

Britain's economy plunged into a dizzying unknown today, as the world economy braced for a hit to growth and unemployment after the UK voted to ditch the EU. Financial markets illustrated the turbulence that could lie ahead for the world's fifth biggest economy, with the pound collapsing to its lowest level against the dollar since 1985 and equity investors nursing heavy losses. Campaigners wanting Britain to remain part of the European Union argued long and hard about the economic risks of Brexit, but ultimately failed to convince a majority of voters in Thursday's referendum. While the economic ramifications of continue to be felt, Twitter had a field day. Here are some of the best tweets about Brexit:

Dear Britain,

This Brexit vote is all wrong

If you want to leave the EU, dump some tea in the harbor and fight a war.

Sincerely,

America

Britain's urge for an identity other than EU is a reflection of nationalist forces surging ahead globally. These are xenophobic times !!

I do think it was because Brexit sounds far more catchy than Bremain. Brexit is snappy and has greater viral hashtag potential.

The real #Brexit was 15 years ago. Hrithik Roshan said "bhaiyya ghar chalo". Got Mr. Raichand and Shahrukh Khan to forget their differences.
