I m not sure it is. I know just as many people who voted remain who now want to leave for a vareity of reasons including respecting the vote, wanting an end to it, disliking the EU and how it has conducted itself so far
I also know people who voted leave who have second thoughts primarily due to the uncertainty and not expecting the EU to be quite so knobbish.
If we reran the referendum, I would have money on it being leave again
Really? I think this illustrates the point about why this should never have been left to the public very well because if folks really change their mind based on nothing more than being annoyed by folks who don’t really want us to leave it is really grim…
You might be right about the vote, who knows? But I would be interested to see how people would vote again if they were told the truth about immigration, the money not being invested in the NHS afterall and the fact that none of the Brexiters have a scooby doo about what to do if they won.
They are probably just so bored and fed up of it all that they don’t both giving their opinion. The other option is that other people shout down those people because 17.2 million people voted for something different and so we shouldn’t have an opinion as the majority won.
We all have opinions, they are all different. We will watch the same thing and have a different view of it. One opinion is not necessarily better than someone else’s. But we seem to be saying that all the time now.
Frankly this ‘my view/opinon is better than yours and you are wrong’ isn’t going to get us very far and we need to find some common ground. There is far too much ‘them and us’ and othering going on.
Anyhow that’s my opinion and I will stick to it firmly and not waiver even if the majority of this forum disagree with me. It’s my right to do so.
That’s another £868 on top of the £488 it’s already cost and we haven’t even started the real negotiations let alone left.
So £1356, but I suppose parents will have to stump up their childrens share(i divided it between the whole population), which puts my contribution so far at over £2k, not including all the costs i have faced because of the plummeting pound.
Still, on the bright side the EU are happy, the NHS is getting an extra £350m a week, foreigners know their place and people like Give and Johnson get to rewrite all our laws.
