Unfortunately, the majority of us are fucking stupid. We voted for Brexit...
The other possibility is that the younger voters are even more stupid by not voting.
Either way, politically stupid or stupid lazy.
How?
How could Brexit have gone better? Open borders, customs union, staying in the single market.
You mean the Norway-plus model. Leave the table were the decisions are made, bud you do have to follow them. How is that better? Maybe less bad than what you got now, but definitely not better than staying.
Yes. I never claimed it was better than staying, I said right there "brexit was a bad idea but" - it was always going to be worse than staying but it didn't need to be the unmitigated disaster that it was - that was the government's fault.
So you do blame brexit?
