To think most Brexiteers must now regret their vote?

[hoovermanouvre]

If you voted Brexit, do you feel like you have been able to "Take Back Control?" If so, where? Can anyone state one positive change since Brexit - I would genuinely like to hear at least something. Anything?

YANBU - I voted Brexit but now regret it
YABU - I voted Brexit and can see a benefit

Not a Brexiteer but I would imagine that the spectacle of von der Leyen threatening the Italians if they vote the "wrong" way has made any voters feel vindicated.

Have you searched for previous threads in this topic OP? I recall seeing this question being asked previously

1. Most of them will never admit it, even if they do regret it.

1. A lot of them have forgotten about it already, and won't necessarily connect some of the impacts of Brexit with their vote.

There are many threads started like this weekly Op
What generally happens on threads like this is that remsiners pile on and insist all Brexiters are thick and stupid and racist etc etc
Do you imagine that Brexiters who are happy with their vote are going to come on the thread just to insulted and pulled apart ?

I’m as “remain” as they come but what’s the point in raking over this yet again ?

It’s happened, done. The population was divided and that let an exploitative government f@@k us over. We deserve better, can we heal these divisions and work together to make the best of where we are now ?

I would like to hear something positive as a result of Brexit and what the point of it was?

So what?

No you don't, you just want to start yet another goady thread 🙄
Just search for the many identical threads to yours .

And when you don’t hear any positive news about Brexit, what are you going to do with that information? Feel happy that you were right and they were wrong ?

You were right and they were wrong and there isn’t anything positive, ok ? Well done.

Now let it go and try to move along, there are fascists using this fracture trying to exploit us and steal everybody’s money and ruin our lives.

There are no Brexit positives and the budget we saw yesterday is the end result of Brexit to help the wealthy, create a low tax uk, deregulation, fracking, fill beaches and rivers with poo etc.

I doubt many regret their vote. It’s too late anyway, the EU will not accept the UK back in its current state which is only going to get worse.

Please look up one of the many many threads that already exist on this subject.

Yeah of course you're genuinely interested 🙄.

There's a Brexit board so why not head over there and take a look at the numerous threads.

We were fed a pack of lies though,immigration would stop,we would be financially better off,we could trade freely…none has materialised.

Everything that IpanemaChic already said.

Exactly this, it's fucking dull.
It was 6 years ago, unless you have a time machine, you're going over old ground.

I don’t blame Brexit voters, I voted Remain but I blame the Brexiteers that lied to them and fed them a complete myth.

I voted remain but I honestly am sick of this polarising twattery.

No one knew what the EU really did pre Brexit. Brexit happened. Newspapers scaremongered and whipped population into a frenzy. Both sides dug in. Families aren’t speaking to each other.

No one knows what has actually changed post Brexit that was a result of Brexit rather than billions of other unique factors to do with the way the UK is. Except that the news is focused more these days on serial dramas which never have the negative outcomes portrayed but which polarise people and keep them arguing.

Honestly I feel lied to and manipulated.

Bit of a daft vote. If you didn't vote Brexit, you have to pick something random in order to see the result.

So many are too dense to even understand the link between their vote and what's happening now

So many don't understand the wholesale gas price issue for example and can't understand why we are paying more than Germany etc.

Also not a Brexit voter, but von der Leyen is saying it like it is - there are some countries in EU that are getting carried away with some very nasty right wing parties - Hungary and Poland so far, Italy on the edge. These counties are now run by governments that are seriously eroding the authority of the courts and the rule of law, they despise minorities, elevate and impose their interpretation of religion, ban abortions/trade unions/same sex marriage/free speech and protests, oversee increase in police brutality... The post war period inspired the collaborations that created the EU, to make life in Europe better and safer for all of us. Our brexit is just one of the sad rejections of that mechanism to protect our future. Thank you to the EU for trying to guide other countries away from damaging decisions. For Italy, a country vulnerable to idealising Mussolini and blaming any woes on EU, this guidance from von der Leyen needs to be taken on board.

So the OP could look for her answers there

They "won". Get over it.

Really? Why do you tell us where your reading so far has got you…

I voted remain. I can (sort of) remember thinking of something as positive at the time it happened, but the details are hazy.

Wasn't there something during Covid about the fact that the U.K. had reacted early and ordered lots of vaccines while the EU hadn't? And if we'd still been part of the EU we'd have to share our pile with them leaving us with not enough?

Like I say, hazy details, but that's all I can think of!
