"A disaster in what way ?" Lol, have you been on a long trip abroad since it happened? As a country we have lurched from one shade of shitshow to another, turned over one promised silver platter of "sovereign benefits" to find a meagre, rotting mess, before trotting back into the kitchen to check on the status of our latest "oven ready deal." And in the face of all of this lived evidence - it is literally all around us that it was a generationally stupid thing - people are still asking for more evidence. I am thankful that so many younger people who have lived through it are imminently to come of voting age.

As a country we have lurched from one shade of shitshow to another, turned over one promised silver platter of "sovereign benefits" to find a meagre, rotting mess, before trotting back into the kitchen to check on the status of our latest "oven ready deal." And in the face of all of this lived evidence - it is literally all around us that it was a generationally stupid thing - people are still asking for more evidence. I am thankful that so many younger people who have lived through it are imminently to come of voting age.
No I haven't been out of the country. I just don't believe the 'shit show' we are in now is down to Brexit. We have had a pandemic and we have fall out from the war in Ukraine."And the rest of the world didn’t? You don’t believe? Ffs !! | |||

Cheese and fruit cake (esp. Christmas cake) does seem to be a northern thing yes. But I don't like fruit cake..... I do like lemon cake and blueberry muffins but they don't go as well with cheese

No matter what camp you are on re brexit, nobody with any common sense could argue that it was not based on a mixed bag of apathy, arrogance, misinformation, xenophobia and lies.

"Are Brexit voters ready to accept it is a disaster? Are remoaners ever going to step away from soundbites? Are adults ever going to say “remoaners” and be taken seriously ?? So long as we continue to divide the nation into those who voted one way and those who voted the other, all we will do is perpetuate that division. Until those who admit they voted wrong! Would it make you feel better if they did? Maybe give you a sense of moral superiority?" I don't think it would make anyone feel better. The country needs to come to a place where we can start to properly tackle this problem, and it's not going to happen when half the political world is still pretending that Brexit was a good idea. We need to face reality, and figure out a way forward. | |||

What trend?"The trend of increasing numbers of people showing ‘bregret’ - the links have been posted here on several occasions now. Most people polled consistently believe that we were wrong to vote to leave the EU. And it’s been over 50% for a while now as well. Doesn’t mean anything will change, of course. But it’s telling. | |||

"I am going to change. I voted remain but I have decided to believe, and dig deep and believe hard. If I believe enough I reckon in about 20 years (after I have retired) I may start to see some net benefit and be able to say Brexit was right. Keep on believing. All that positive mental energy has got to achieve something?" I remember the days on twitter when brexiters used to accuse remainers of talking the country down. I thought brexiters were the majority, surely they could just talk it back up again?! | |||

Ahh the new excuse of this isn't Brexit....even though the tin said Brexit. Brexit only appears in some peoples mind as an abstract system where everything good is Brexit and everything bad isn't the brexit they voted for. Bottom line is Brexit Is a fuckity fuck up of Fuckmegastom Fuckticity. Unless you have a big fat tax free offshore account. | |||

"All this polling Shame the poll that mattered showed the nations true intentions. I agree. It's been a nightmare for the country. " It’s the classic Brexit attitude. ‘We won, you lost, suck it up’ Doesn’t matter if it’s made us poorer, if it hasn’t created opportunities, if it’s left us more vulnerable. ‘We won. Get over it’ | |||

"All this polling Shame the poll that mattered showed the nations true intentions." Apparently something like 1.4m of the people who voted for Brexit are now dead. | |||
