Oh come on, that’s not an original take, that’s literally what everyone who voted for remain kept trying to tell the Brexiteers. It was so obvious that this was never going to work, it so clearly hadn’t been thought through.
The way politics in this country is handled is like constantly trying to stop a toddler from setting themselves on fire or drinking bleach. Supposedly level-headed career politicians make the most obviously stupid of decisions. It’s maddening.

That’s one degree of separation away. Rich people run the propaganda machine to get stupid people to vote against their interests.
