British people did this. Yeah. Us. FFS

Ah yes, so we're leaving, are we?
So, the current plan for Brexit would leave us worse off than as a full member of the EU. Farage wants back in, claiming there are too many lies and too much fear-mongering. Labour is apparently toothless and rotting from the inside out. The Lib Dems are providing the only real opposition but have absolutely no power base or goodwill with the British public; a British public which will fight itself over leaving Europe out of principle now, rather than sense.
So how are those pillars of the leave campaign working? Finance, sovereignty, immigration, maintaining the union... Trade opportunities (WTO, anyone)? Who was really being honest?
Campaigns for not only a vote on the final deal but another referendum are gaining huge support. And that scares the Brexit high command so much they want Farage back in a saddle he said he was sick of riding...and we all know the pedigree there - fisheries, NHS, self promotion...ooh, nearly didn't mention Boris - ah, there he is.
This is a complete shower of shit foisted on a public ill-equipped to make decisions those in power should be making. And yet, apparently, now it's the politicians who are screwing it up.
Oh, they have. Royally. Someone, somewhere, will do very nicely out of Brexit. (You know, the rich and the Rich-Smuggs.) The rest of us are about to find out just how bad this is. But we, the British public, did this.
