To Think Remainers Are Starting To Get Really Angry About Brexit?

[KennDodd]

I can feel the mood among Remainers, both IRL and online changing.

What makes me angry is the talk about delivering "what the people want" conveniently forgetting that there were 16 million people who didn't want it

I wish they would say "what a small majority voted for at the time of the referendum" though I accept it's a bit long winded

I don’t feel angry, I feel sad. The country is in the doldrums.

I know a lot of people who voted Leave. They will absolutely come off worse in a deprived areas where they currently work in blue collar jobs. They had no idea what they were voting for!! It’s ridiculous.

I would say most remainers are becoming happier and leave voters less so. Leaving the EU is looking like a fantasy at this point. No deal just isn’t an option (had this all been properly planned and provisions put in place for this eventuality then maybe but the gov. couldn’t organize a piss up in a brewery). Any deal makes us rule takers rather than makers and in a worse position than if we leave. The only answer is to stay. Everyone knows this thus the can is just kicked further down the road.

Everyone should be angry about the amount of time and energy this shit show has consumed. It’s not like there is an actual country to run or anything. Much damage has already been done, the economy is already suffering to the benefit of other EU MS.

I think the gov. is working out whether just to give up the whole thing and risk riots or double down and go to a second referendum. It’s great if the vote is to stay but if there are enough truly insane people to vote to leave again then they risk even more unrest if they pull the plug on Brexit after.

At the last vote it was clear Brexit would be ruinously complex and a bad idea but now
It is obvious it is basically impossible. Although I saw an interview with some of the public on the BBC after the vote and horrifyingly there was more talk of MP’s coming together for the common good to make it happen. What the hell can you do when the public holds beliefs like that? I despair.

Romany would you vote if there was a People's Vote?

The UK is a net exporter of medicine to the EU.

No I’m not angry any more. I’m bloody sick of it. I don’t want Brexit and there’s fuck all I can do about it.
Imustbemad people with your “I’m all right Jack” attitude, that’s what makes me angry.

I'm angry at the amount of money we've pissed away on this.
Also MP/ parliament debating time.
Also civil servants time.

All of which could surely have been put to better use for all the actual problems. The ones we haven't wholly created by ourselves like fucking idiots.

Of course it affects you unless you are incredibly well off? Are you?

Do you like to eat decent food at reasonable prices, have free healthcare, use other public services?

Then it will affect you.

I never vote because none of it ever affects me. I’m a low earner, in a rented property, with a normal life. People like me are either overlooked or shit on so I’ve never bothered.

I still, amongst all the hysteria, am yet to hear of anything that’s going to affect me or my life personally as a result of brexit.

Yes I have empathy for the people it will effect. But I don’t spend time worrying or feeling angry about it. There are plenty of bad things happening to other people that I can’t control. I don’t like it, but it doesn’t consume me.

'I don't understand why my choice is worth less than someone elses and can be ignored.'

Because your choice was one that will cause grave harm to the economy of your country, the stability of peace in your country and to other citizens particularly children living in poverty. That's why it's worth less and should be ignored.

How much fucking money has this Brexit bollocks actually cost us in the last 2 years? It’s a shit show. An absolute mess. All based on a fucking advisory referendum.

Worn out with anger. Feeling very scared as there's still nothing in place about insulin supplies if we leave without a deal of any kind. My GP and pharmacist are worried about it and the leading Diabetes support charities have had no assurances from the govt that there won't be shortages and supply chain gaps. I really don't want to die and I'm angry that David Cameron is a stupid fucking twat who set the shit storm in action and walked away.

I'm not really angry any longer. More resigned and tired about it. The anger and upset I felt at first was unsustainable for this length of time.

The families I thought might leave already have. One was a lovely Polish family, she was a nurse and we don't need their kind sarcastic after all. DD1 misses her best friend.

I think as a family we're in a good place to weather any of this. DH's job is as secure as it can be, and I can return to healthcare work in a heartbeat lapsed nurse. I'm planning to go back to something when my study-gap finishes anyway.

I'm fearful for some of my friends. Some are living fairly close to the last few pennies each month as it is, despite careful spending. If Brexit causes food prices to rise I believe this is inevitable they really don't have a buffer to afford it. I can't believe the harm this is causing, or the money it is costing us all.

I've been pretty angry since the referendum. I take regular breaks from thinking about it, but when I do, I feel just as angry again. I am angry because of the opportunities that I had, which have been taken from my children. Angry at our stupid, arrogant politicians. Angry about the money that has been spent on this bullshit that could have gone on education or the NHS. I'm going on the march in a couple of weeks but apart from that there doesn't seem to be anything useful that I can do.

This one will
And frankly you deserve whats coming if you are too idle to inform yourself.

Shh...can you hear that shuffling sound? That's Emily Davison turning in her grave.

I don't think it is just Remainers who are angry or upset, and have been for the last three years. Leavers are just angry for different reasons.

It stops Universal Credit being the main thing thats talked about in the news and on the streets. So it serves that purpose.

Somebody should work out how much this has cost us so far, and stick that on the side of a bus.

Cameron is ‘writing his memoirs’, apparently. If he had any decency he’d never show his face in public again. Rees-Mogg, Farage, Boris Johnson & co are self-serving, avaricious traitors.

Yes, I am pretty angry, but I’m also deeply sad and ashamed that this is happening.

Yeah i agree floral

As a type 1 insulin dependent I'm frightened I will die

Mrs May is also T1, unless she's suicidal I hope she will have given this some thought. I'm T1 too, and I have about six months' of insulin in the fridge

Well if its no deal, I hope the 'leavers' in my office are going to volunteer to be made redundant. Because there WILL be redundancies where I work.

I also hope the leavers will forgoe their medicines so that the remainers I know with chronic health issues who are (literally) sick with worry can get the health care they need.

I never vote because none of it ever affects me... People like me are either overlooked or shit on so I’ve never bothered

Does it not occur to you that if people like you voted you'd be less likely to be "overlooked or shit on"?

Angry? I’m fucking savage.

I’m savage about all the money they’ve put into this absolute shower of shite, when the NHS and police force and other public services have been BEGGING for money to keep people alive and those absolute wankstains just keep repeating there’s no problem or ‘magic money tree’.

I’m savage about the uncertainly for my children and the bomb it’s dropped onto the economy.

I’m savage that I’ve found out the true racist colours of family members and friends and I can’t bear to be in their presence.

I’m savage they don’t care about threatening peace in Ireland.

I’m savage that people are going to die over this.

Fucking fuckers! I’ve had an offer to take a job in Canada and I’m considering it fully even though I’d be leaving family members and friends I’m loathed to leave. I just feel like I have to protect my kids from these motherfuckers.

What I’m angry about is the people I know who voted to leave still don’t see the damage that has been done. I seriously think if we went ahead with Brexit under a no deal and they personally suffered all of the dire consequences predicted of a no deal, losing their jobs, food and medication shortages etc, that they would still think Brexit was a good idea. It is almost like they have been radicalised by Nigel Farage!! I have family members who I won’t discuss Brexit with as they won’t listen to any reasonable argument.

I’ve been angry at the government ever since David Cameron called the referendum to keep his hard line eurosceptics happy. That’s starting to wane a bit now as I’m just getting more and more worried.
