I feel like polls have been saying that since before Brexit was even finalised :') the only good I ever thought might come of Brexit was it might make things so bad in Britain that it might help spark some kind of revolution..

    As soon as the fuzzy "imagine anything you want" of the referendum collapsed into "you must pick one and come up with a plan to mitigate the consequences" of May's government!

    Any specific result would always have had a minority - the 'majority' vote was made up of people wanting opposite things.

    Yeah. That’s the issue isn’t it. There was one version of remain but dozens of versions of leave but people only got to choose between two options.

    Then when the government realised that there were so many different opinions of what leave meant they spent more than a year with no progress.

    I'm just hoping that after a few decades of maturation (hopefully before it turns blue), they will come back as full members and as one of the main leaders of EU as they should always have been .
