"During the referendum the EU should have done a lot more promotion of the good they do and the benefits that directly come to the UK through its membership and its status within it."
No that was for the UK political class to do,and very unpopular politicians chose to make it their message. It wouldn't have mattered too much anyway because the most popular press in the UK was full of the kind of reactionary nonsense that has led us here. Attacks on immigrants increased 3 fold in that referendum campaign.
'You do realise you pretty much called all 17.4 million people who voted Leave, uneducated and racist. '
You do realise the stats back that impression up ?
Anyone paying attention for about the past year knows it's no-deal, rock-hard, blame-the-furriner, bonfire-of-rights, Singapore-on-Sea Brexit that the powers that be in the tories want. Boris won the leadership contest he didn't take part in after all.....clever old him.
No one has explained a) what materially the EU have done to make their lives so shit and b) what the uk is going to do now to make it better?
Im not buying this 'lots of different reasons' patter at all. Sure some might voted brexit to stick it to cameron,but in the end they have just stuck it to themselves.
