And guess what, AC was right, Brexit has been awful for UK

[@Iazzaboyce]

In what way?

@@Dcc-yk2lo See, there's me thinking Brexit has been great in every way - I suppose we will just have to have a vote about it - Oh, we did have a vote about it and your ideas about the UK being ruled by Brussels lost...

4:13 Alastair actually did say "people have changed their minds", just look at GMB video of him debating with Nigel Farage.

BJ only won a 'resounding majority' due to the flawed and undemocratic FPTP. In a People's Vote, Remain would have easily won

[@hocolate271]

I don't know if it would have been that easy. The Tories led a clear leave campaign and won 43% of the popular vote nationwide. Brexit party won 2%. Lib Dems, SNP, Green were the Remain coalition and letter a total of 18%. Labour won 32% on their policy of renegotiating the deal and putting another vote forward, which doesn't indicate clear remain sentiment. Remember that the Tories ran on a "get Brexit done" platform as the central pillar of their campaign and won the biggest vote share since 1979.
The public was tired of the Brexit debate by 2019 but I think few people were outright remain. It was more common (as shown by the election results) for people to either want to get out and get it over with, or to disassociate from the debate altogether (Labour were heavily criticised for not focussing on Brexit at all, if you didn't care about the issue you were more likely to vote for them.)
Ultimately, almost half the country voted either Conservative or Brexit, with a very clear pro-Brexit message. The other half isn't as unified in anti-Brexit sentiment as some people imagine.

Well done Alistair for getting a wording edgeways over know-it-all Morgan.. poor. Suzanne!

Campbell always likes the sound of his own voice. Always in the wrong.
