Subject: RE: BS: Brexit & other UK political topics
I was recently accused of being a remoaner on Faceache. I am quite proud if that sobriquet but this was my response

The British public did vote for brexit even though it was as plain as the nose on your face that it would be harmful to the economy. That the referendum was won fair and square is not in question and I will always agree it was the wish of the majority that bothered to vote. Trouble is that no-one will now admit that they were conned by liars and Charlatans as they would rather blame someone else. Which is why we now have the political chaos we are seeing. No one will admit that they were wrong so it becomes impossible to put right. The fact that I could always see it was wrong leaves me open to accusations of "remoaning" and that I want to, somehow, subvert the outcome of a fair vote. Well, it was also a fair vote in 2019 but I will do all I can to change the fairly elected government as soon as possible. The only difference between that and 2016 seems to be that we are lumbered with the decision to leave the EU forever and to question that makes me an insurgent and traitor :-( Long rant over. Thanks for reading :-)

I doubt that it will shut the accuser up but I think it sums up my views :-)
