 The actual huge cost of Brexit was given no thought, though the lies upon what the NHS would gain were.
Millions of people have earned less since 2008 and will likely face big losses if the UK leaves the EU. Just the fact that everyone benefits from 60 odd trade deals with other countries now because of our membership, is enough to make simple maths show how being without them will make your purchases more expensive, as well as much of the costs of business, which the ordinary person will now have to pay on top instead. An isolated country will not get such good trade deals as our membership paid for. It was money well spent.
The mindset that develops from a culture within an Island and that led the world, pervades when the country is in decline, relative to others. There have obviously been many great things about the past but swivel eyes looking through rose tinted glasses won't deliver the realism that's needed, especially as most vision is within the brain - unfortunately there wasn't a great foundation there either, as biases and lies distorted how people saw the world as well as the UK position in it. | |||

So what imperial nostalgia are the rest of the 17million voting to resurrect ??"I do not think anyone is saying all voted to resurrect the raja, just that it was the subconscious motivation of a significant minority, just like there is a significant minority in the US that have an equally bizarre nostalgic view of the gun-slinging wild west to drive the gun madness that cant be seen by Americans but is so obvious to the rest of the world. | |||

"Make yourself sheep, and the wolves will eat you." What is it John Lennon said about people who think they are clever and classless and free? If we are honest with ourselves we have to admit we are all sheep to some extent. | |||

"It was an anti establishment vote sure enough. Led by multi millionaires like Banks, Boris and Rees mogg...They promised us all an easy way to "Take back control"...pointed out the money we paid to the EU and told us we were being duped. Now some of this has some merit, but be assured those mentioned above are not anti-establishment ....They are the establishment, be prepared for a lowering of standards in all areas of life, workers rights, working time directives,public health issues etc Any price to pay for this unfurling debacle will fall like in 2008 on us the general population,who lost jobs paid out £500 billion to the bankers who then rewarded themselves bonuses.A crime that led to not one of the city boys doing time in prison. We then had Eton boy Cameron tell us we "Are all in this together" i believe we have been sold an idea that will not benefit you or me,the ones who will gain from poorer workers rights and a suppression of health and safety are people like Mike Ashley, Jeff Bezos, and Johnsons cronies ....All "Men of the people" just like Farage .......Oh sorry he is an ex city boy as well...

"Who else agreed that a vote for brexit was a vote a for a misguided nostalgia, for a so called golden age when the uk had an empire Rubbish,there where many reasons and never heard anybody say this was the reason for voting out"Yes. There are many reasons and ALL of them are self-generated concepts of false idealism that were nurtured by the failures of successive Governments and a media backlash that targeted the very bottom of the barrel. One example might be for example that the “English” felt left behind by Scottish, Welsh and Irish devolution and like babies they cried “But what about us?” Another example might be the FACT that the United Kingdom has never settled its soul over the events of 1914-1918 and 1939-1945 and to this day many are still fighting the enemy on the Continent. Another example might be the Press whose behaviour in the last three years has in part mirrored their behaviour in the phony war prior to May 1940. Denial and a sense of optimism, coupled with an absolute assertion that Hitler just “would not dare” resulted in the country being totally unprepared for the war that was ultimately unleashed despite having 9 months notice whilst actually being “at war” not to mention the six years prior watching what happened when Hitler took the election in 1933 with 17.5 million popular votes. This country still has a very misplaced sense of its own identity and its place on the world’s stage. Perhaps a total humiliation in the form of Brexit might just bring about the necessary changes to the country’s psyche to enable us to finally move forwards in step with our closest neighbours, trading partners and friends. | |||

"Who else agreed that a vote for brexit was a vote a for a misguided nostalgia, for a so called golden age when the uk had an empire Rubbish,there where many reasons and never heard anybody say this was the reason for voting out"There were many reasons. But in fairness none of them made sense or were real. | |||
"but to punish the elite the country jumps off the cliff" We're jumping off a cliff to reward those who already have all the wealth and power. | |||

"Who else agreed that a vote for brexit was a vote a for a misguided nostalgia, for a so called golden age when the uk had an empire "I think people who vote brexit, was because they perceived their lives to be really shit, they hated feeling powerless, they hated immigration from the EU, they hated not having a job, they hated being poor, they hated they didn’t get a piece of the pie. They hated change. The Brexit movement in general is build on a perceived injustice, feeling they have lost control. Those who support brexit, still feel hard done by. The bitterness is febrile. They still just want people to be just as miserable as they are, make them feel their pain.

There's plenty of people who say that leaving will be good. There's no information or evidence to suggest there's any truth to it. But they believe it anyway. | |||

I think people who vote brexit, was because they perceived their lives to be really shit, they hated feeling powerless, they hated immigration from the EU, they hated not having a job, they hated being poor, they hated they didn’t get a piece of the pie. They hated change.
The Brexit movement in general is build on a perceived injustice, feeling they have lost control.
Those who support brexit, still feel hard done by. The bitterness is febrile.
They still just want people to be just as miserable as they are, make them feel their pain.
Of course brexiteers are going to deny it, but truthfully deep down they want people to suffer, to boost their sense of false superiority. They may not say it in public, privately they think it.
If anyone who is a brexiteer denies this, I deny this is the truth.". No shit, you treat people like children and shit for forty years and your astonished when given a democratic vote they vote to knee cap you!. I mean sure, we could have given them the vote on the Maestricht treaty that might have stopped all this nonsense but no, the powers that be like cheap labour so we got unlimited immigration despite nobody actually liking it here. There's those that make a living via capital and those that take a wage, that's the real battle lines, if your white and live in London your more likely to have voted brexit than somebody white from from the north. I keep saying this, the vote was about immigration and that's the simple truth. | |||
"Strikes me as a huge mistake. I voted remain, not because I think the EU is some fantastic thing, but I think leaving could/will be catastrophic, for generations. Why bother? " I am also a remainer and yes it sure is a big mistake. I dont know either why they bothered with it. | |||

I am also a remainer and yes it sure is a big mistake. I dont know either why they bothered with it." . I give Sweden ten more years and they'll vote as well, it won't be for fiscal reasons although somebody will claim it is, it won't be for better trading although some people will claim it is, it won't be for sovereignty although some people will claim it is. It will be because Swedes don't want to be polish or Latvian or Pakistani or Afghans or Germans, they want to be Swedes in a Swedish country. This isn't hard to grasp, even the left grasp it when talking about anybody that isn't white, just the other day the guardian had an article on the Kashmir situation, India want to change the rules and allow non Muslims to own land and move to Kashmir, the Kashmiri aren't happy about that and neither are the guardian, the ethnic people of Kashmir should be free to keep their ethnic identity the guardian wrote, hallelujah they get it, there don't want Hindus. This isn't even considered in the slightest bit a hot topic when talking about brown countries, Palestine for the Palestinians, the left love that idea, England for the English, no your a racist cunt. | |||

He was mostly right, she's just not alone in those thoughts, were hairless apes, we really don't adapt as fast as we think. If anybody actually listened to the citizens they are meant to represent we wouldn't be here but here we are. Politics is never going to go back to normal until we have the open and honest and frankly awkward debate on white identity in a white country and all us (I'm afraid I'm one of the liberals) progressives are just going to have to suck it up for ten years or so. I'm really afraid the consequences of not going through this are beyond fire going forward. | |||

"Oh let's bring race into it ....total crap it's got nothing to do with pigmentation....." . I happen to agree, twenty years ago it would have been a debate on "englishness and culture" but we've all had that kicked out of us, nobody flew a George cross because they were scared of the consequences, when you poll people on English identity you get stupid answers like fish and chips and rain because there the last answers that don't offend anyone could you imagine polling a Kenyan and getting sunshine and elephants? Or the Japanese and getting sushi and bullet trains?. Were a lost nation of nobodys and everybodys where none of us feel at home and nobodys proud to be English. I was holidaying in Poland last year when it stuck me what a country and identity is actually like. All we've got left now is being white in an ever shrinking white country hence the rise in white identitarian politics and that's not going to get any better anytime soon. You know the first thing Mao did in China was deploy the one culture, one haircut, one uniform policy, everybody is the same no matter what colour you are. Hong kongers felt Chinese when polled twenty years ago, today less that 12% when polled feel Chinese despite being ethnically Chinese!!. Once you've lost your culture it doesn't just come back to you because your a race or a colour, it takes a generation or two. | |||

"but to punish the elite the country jumps off the cliff We're jumping off a cliff to reward those who already have all the wealth and power.So how are they rewarded?This is just petty jealousy and ignorance" Your ignorance is off the scale. I have money tied up in US dollars. Every time the pound drops I make more. This money was invested prior to 2016 so not an attempt to profit from Brexit. Brexit was always going to impact the UK economy and the pound was always going to be affected negatively. So, many wealthy people have a lot to gain from Brexit and the crashing of the pound. For example, £1m prior to the referendum was worth 1.35m euros. Now that 1.35m euros is worth £1.25m. That's 25% more. Once they've made more money they can start buying up on the cheap. That's not petty jealousy. It's disgusting. It's disgusting that people have conned the gullible into believing that investing less that 0.7% of our GDP in the EU (something like £40 per head a year) is a bad thing. Under WTO, our food bills will be significantly more than an extra £40 a year! It's disgusting that people were conned into believing that immigration from the EU was a bad thing. That all these people were stealing our jobs. It's disgusting that people were conned into thinking that the people were sponging off our NHS when in fact the vast majority were paying more into the system than taking out. The "healthcare tourism" nonsense sprouted is a tiny cost of the NHS and is not even a EU problem. I read something like less than 1/10th of 1%. That's less than 1p in every £10. You've been conned into believing that the laws in our country are dictated by the EU. Less than 15% of laws are EU and actually some aren't a bad thing. But the important thing, our MEPs approved the vast majority of those. You've been conned into believing that the EU is not democratic. You've been conned by fake news that Turkey is about to join the EU and that there will be an EU Army. Conned. | |||
"but to punish the elite the country jumps off the cliff We're jumping off a cliff to reward those who already have all the wealth and power.So how are they rewarded?This is just petty jealousy and ignorance" Brexit is for the sole benefit of those who already have wealth and power. Brexit is so they can get a tighter grip and more control over the population. Or have you missed everything that's been happening for the last 3 1/2 years? | |||

It's disgusting that people have conned the gullible into believing that investing less that 0.7% of our GDP in the EU (something like £40 per head a year) is a bad thing. Under WTO, our food bills will be significantly more than an extra £40 a year! It's disgusting that people were conned into believing that immigration from the EU was a bad thing. That all these people were stealing our jobs. It's disgusting that people were conned into thinking that the people were sponging off our NHS when in fact the vast majority were paying more into the system than taking out. The "healthcare tourism" nonsense sprouted is a tiny cost of the NHS and is not even a EU problem. I read something like less than 1/10th of 1%. That's less than 1p in every £10. You've been conned into believing that the laws in our country are dictated by the EU. Less than 15% of laws are EU and actually some aren't a bad thing. But the important thing, our MEPs approved the vast majority of those. You've been conned into believing that the EU is not democratic. You've been conned by fake news that Turkey is about to join the EU and that there will be an EU Army. Conned. And it was scary how easy it was for them to con people." What's REALLY scary is that after 3 years they still can't see it. They think that WTO is a good thing even though the likes of Johnson and Gove have in the past stated that isn't the direction we want to go down. Clueless! | |||
"but to punish the elite the country jumps off the cliff We're jumping off a cliff to reward those who already have all the wealth and power.So how are they rewarded?This is just petty jealousy and ignorance Your ignorance is off the scale. I have money tied up in US dollars. Every time the pound drops I make more. This money was invested prior to 2016 so not an attempt to profit from Brexit. Brexit was always going to impact the UK economy and the pound was always going to be affected negatively. So, many wealthy people have a lot to gain from Brexit and the crashing of the pound.

Five minutes research into WTO trading rules would show anyone how unsuitable they are. It's a minimum requirement for a country to potentially survive on. But people don't want to know. | |||

"Who else agreed that a vote for brexit was a vote a for a misguided nostalgia, for a so called golden age when the uk had an empire "But it wasn't about nostalgia, it was about taking back control and making our own rules up as we go along. For example, taking back control of British Steel... And for another example, for taking back control of that railway line which was effectively run by Richard Branson. 2 examples of "taking back control" which are happening right now. | |||
