I really don't buy all the hype that 17M+ people flocked to follow Farage, Boris or Gove, or swooned over a figure on the
side of a bus. Of course some were worried about immigration and sovereignty, but I bet a great many were simply
protesting at the failure of politicians to listen, look or care. Politicians whether in London or Brussels are seen as self
serving and with little or no connect to the normal person in the street.
If Tusk and his cronies had listened to the voices calling for change, if Cameron had bothered to trouble them with
his voice for change, then we might be in a different place right now. Even now, politicians both side of the divide
are more interested in saving face than saving the day and unity. The chaos has not come about by 17m votes, it
has come about by a very few leaders who have shown anything but leadership, and have set about a collision of
ideas when compromise and sensible solutions were easier and less costly to everyone.
If you want to believe the likes of Farage, Mogg, Gove, Johnson, Fox and Davies then good for you. I think they are full of shit but it won’t be them who suffer. Carry on Brexit.
