It was a referendum. People are were asked "do you want to leave the EU" and the majority of people said "yes". The British people have no one to blame but themselves.
Most everybody in the UK didn't want to leave Europe until a bunch of politicians with an agenda planted the idea in their mind and argued for it with lies after lies.
The people was lied to and Brexit was manufactured. You can't put all the blame on the people: part of it is to be dished out to the education system that failed to give enough of them critical thinking abilities and teach them history so it doesn't repeat itself.
Don't waste your breath, they're not interested in a genuine debate. They ask that we limit our view so that only the simplest of lies are needed.
Who proposed it? Did the people just wake up one day and say yeah we're out?
Or did Farage and Boris cook something up?
Bit of both. There had always been resentment against joining the EU. Austerity policies only increased it. Boris and Farage did their best to fan the flames.
Either it is not within your power to encompass world events in relation to one another, or your argument requires that we fail to do so; in either case, be silent.
Lmao. "Russia did Brexit" "Actually it was a referendum. People wanted it" "Be silent!"
Truly one of our greatest minds.
