Leavers: idea about why good to leave in principle
Remainers: more practical about how you actually are going to achieve that (or aren't).
Between those two points lies the argument. Can you achieve the ideological principle you set out to, in practice?
That then leads to remainers being regarded as 'spoil sports' or simply 'obstructive' and leavers being regarded as 'fantatists'.
I seem to remember arguments ending up pretty circular around those two points, prior to the vote too.
Personally I find that conflict still really frustrating and totally unresolved. And thats why there is still political problems.
Brexit sounds to many like a great idea. The trouble is, how do you turn a good idea into a good business? It need not be a business, it could be an idea to improve the quality of people's lives. Same concept.
You need more than an idea, you need a visionary to see it through.
And in British politics we have a lot of people who are good at talking, but not much good at the doing stuff.
Thats why Brexit still fails for me. Give it some substance and some pragmatic realism and I could be persuaded. Its the fact we are still stuck on ideology not the nitty gritty of how it will work. It could be the best idea in the world. But without someone to see it through, its just got stuck.
Its always the responsibility of someone else to work out the gap and do the hard work. We are stuck in this loop we seem unable to escape over it.
Its all desperately sad, as I don't see either leavers nor remainers ever getting the result they wanted to see.
Neither side ultimately wins. We all lose.
