Fortunately, I didn't pay much heed to either side of the Referendum as I trotted off and carried out my own research instead.
My heart was telling me to vote leave and so I made extra effort to look at the Remain arguments too. I knew that a vote to leave would cause utter turmoil initially but for me it was a vote for the longer term stability of the economy.
Over the past few weeks I have had the opportunity to get together with friends and family and the Referendum was discussed at length.
Unsurprisingly, there was a pretty even split between remain and leave and I would say that opinions seemed to follow the general pattern of older generations - leave, younger - remain (although not completely)
Not at any point did anyone shout or try to put down other's views (unusual for my family!) as I think that everyone recognised that there were arguments for and against each side (broadly speaking). During one particular get together at a relatives house, there must have been over 40 adults attending, most of whom were friends of theirs and not people I knew personally but everyone wanted to talk about the referendum and it was great to be able to do so with strangers.
This experience however lulled me into a false sense of security as I assumed that the majority of the voting public would be approaching the issue in the same way.
A couple of my cousins for example voted for UKIP and even they didn't really buy Farage's arguments for Brexit.
Anyway, in answer to your question OP - I didn't really feel I could trust either side but I tried my absolute best to try and mitigate that by doing my own research and talking to as broader range of people as possible.
Do I regret my vote to leave? No
Am I concerned about the fallout? Of course I bloody am!
If I could vote again, would I vote differently? No.
What we need now is for someone to man the fuck up and start leading this country. What we also need is for remain voters to stop being part of the problem (shouting and screaming, hurling abuse, trying to reverse the decision) and to start becoming part of the solution.
If the rest of the world is laughing at us right now, it's not because of the results of the vote. It's because the whole country has descended into utter fucking hysterical chaos.
