Every single one of us rely to a greater or lesser extent on what we are told by other people. We weigh the arguments and, when the option is a simple yes or no such as the referendum, we decide which way to vote. The leave team made a better job of lying to the electorate than the remain team did. Which is why more people voted to leave than to remain. Over 30% could not make up their minds. 30 months later the lies have been exposed and the dirty tricks have been revealed. I, like everyone else, would like to believe I was right in rejecting the antics of the Farage menagerie but I seriously do hope I was wrong about what will happen. Sadly,every reputable source so far confirms my fears. Not one single argument has been put forth here to help allay them. On last performance I suspect that no such assurances will be forthcoming.
