I do wish people stop being patronising about people who voted to leave. Why do you assume that "99% of people did not even think about this"? Perhaps leavers did consider the economic cost of leaving but still considered it a trade-off worth doing. After all, the remain campaigners kept doomsaying about the economic costs of leaving the EU every chance they got.
And out of curiosity, how long would it have taken for this effect to 'trickle down' to the low-paid workers who are being still undercut by economic migrants from Eastern Europe? Because I remember this debate was happening when I was in High School and Blair was still PM. I am now nearly 30 and we have had three PMs since then, and it still remains an issue.
'kay. No point arguing about it anyway as it's moot. Article 50 has been invoked.
However, I was reading an
article this morning in the pro-EU newspaper which highlights how, contrary to your assertion about decision-making, things will in actual fact be run quite differently in Westminster in 2020 with regard to Britain's climate change strategy. Whether it will change for better or worse, well that remains to be seen. But undoubtedly politics will start become quite exciting in the future once the dust settles and the government of the day starts tinkering with the Great Repeal Bill. Who knows, perhaps we will actually have politicians who can start delivering what they promise.
What debate? We had it in June 2016 mate.
