And did anyone explain, in clear terms, what that would likely mean in
practice? An individual's freedoms, job security, freedom of movement,
standard of living? Do you seriously expect me to believe that they
did?

No, and anyone claiming to know is a liar, and would be the case
whether we leave or remain, whether Blair got in in 1997 or whether
John Major did etc etc et-bloody-cetra.

How about using your common sense and realising that, gosh, we can't
predict the future, eh?

No, those of us with common sense realised that at the beginning and
therefore required more information before we would be able to vote on
it.

Then why didn't you look for it, ask questions, discuss it? Why d'ye
expect to be spoon-fed?

Quite. I really don't understand why Tim S and others don't see that.
To say 'vote leave' means one of several very different things, but we
won't tell you which one, is not much use in a vote.

I don't know where you get your funny idea that brexit means one of
several things.

I have explained in another post. And I gave a link to the government's
presentation of 3 variants (plus some discussion of Ireland) before the
referendum (still being peddled). I really can't be any clearer.

I told you what it meant to me and why.

Good, of course. And presumably you voted with the reasonable
expectation that your meaning would be realised if your side won?


It's all simple enough.


Well, seemingly so - to you.
