    A majority of voters never wanted brexit in the first place, but they were either.

    • too dumb to realise it.
    • they were lied to and manipulated into voting the wrong way by mainstream media and politicians
    • they didn’t read the fine prints
    • they were just racist.
    • all of the above

      my dumbass stupid boyfriend voted for brexit and I mock him for it relentlessly because we are both men.

      ultimately, a simple referendum should never have been acted on to this extent, but it was what the racist tories wanted so they had to push it through (cunts)

        Farage is like a cockroach. He’ll keep surviving and finding a new place to emerge from with the same aim: get sustainence and spread shit when no one’s looking

      I would say before Brexit can be reversed a big part of the population needs some better education about politics and social economic issues.

      Without that, people will just chose the populist option again.
