If what we now know had come out last time, I seriously doubt that Brexit would be happening, I think we now need a second vote, not even the remain camp fully knew just how much we are reliant on the EU for life as we know now it, next year does not look pretty, all flights outside UK, stopped, same with shipping, not eurotunnel, ferries etc etc, no more holidays abroad, relatives living overseas would become distant memories and lost to us forever once we undo that knot
It's almost as if you're saying that the populus tends to make decisions based on emotions, rather than carefully weighed decisions based on facts and level-headed debate. Surely that can't be?
It would be fairly hilarious that people get angry about not being able to move freely across borders after voting to abolish open borders if it weren't so painful. Pleading ignorance isn't really viable. People elected to ignore the information that didn't suit their emotions and this seems to be the result.
I think if everyone re-reads my post in particular
"If what we now know had come out last time" I think its then pretty clear that absolutely no-one came out and publicly stated that these things that I have mentioned and more were
never mentioned in the public domain, I'm quite sure that the result would well have been different.
The populus was completely misinformed throughout that whole process by both the "Leave" and the "Remain" factions, whether that was by design or ignorance is besides the point and cannot be proven either way.
One fact is that the "Leave" group broke the rules of the campaign and if it had been a general election and the winning party were subsequently proven to have broken the rules, I would expect that the whole process would have been declared a non event and another election called. That should be the case here over Brexit.
The populus can only react to the facts as presented in the same way as a jury can only react to the evidence presented by both the prosecution and the defense its as clear as that. Since that vote was taken and the deadline looms ever larger more facts are being uncovered and exposed to the populus
BUT not by the government but by experts in their own fields of commerce, transport, and people who are trade agreement specialists etc, these are areas that no politician has extensive knowledge of and hence why that information was not presented in the first vote,. All media coverage was of things like the televised debates by the various political parties leaders slogging it out on live TV.
This is not intended to become a full scale debate/discussion just a mere comment thats all.
Bringing it back to tea again, I managed to secure last night another Tek TDS210 with a set of probes but was more interesting for me at least was there was a differential probe as well in the deal.
