I know, and I get it. My view was don’t hit eject yet, but inform the public and give 10 years to fix the issues.
Sovereignty I’m having an issue with. EDF (Electricité de France) is what - the biggest power supplier in the UK? RATP (French) runs a huge proportion of London buses. Sovereignty is not as clear as in the days of cutlasses and pirates.
Freedom - yes, if the EU really is dragging the UK down. But is it? Or have UK politicians simply been abysmal at negotiating through the mire? Is it not deeply concerning that they can’t figure out how to get through the red tape? What’s wrong with them?
Independence. Hopefully, the EU needs the UK more than we need the EU.
But what I see around me is deep hypocrisy. Leave posters were in windows of houses being upgraded by East European workers. That’s just thick.
My feeling is that there was a deal of deliberation and wool-pulling. The public “voted” “democratically”, but heck, they were led there witlessly.
