Politics (and other political stuff)
(20 Feb 2019, 12:51 pm)Jamie M My view is Europe is pretty much also in shambles, but I think reform should have been the agenda, not leaving it for an unknown outcome.
Many think we survived WW2 without Europe and therefore we can now, but so many things have changed since then, we live internationally connected lives in the western world. We share ideas and use products from so many different countries.
I think there has been no opposition to brexit. Everyone knows what they don't want, nobody knows what they do want. There's only push factors, no pull factors.
No deal is uncertain and nobody knows what it could mean. May's deal is awful, and going back to Europe still leaves us with the same issues as before. Not only this, but we will be looked down on and made an example of how nobody can leave the union.
I think businesses have also been stretching brexit as a way of scaremongering. This is from someone who isn't a eurosceptic.
A people's vote seems poorly received, voting on a vote sounds silly.
If we leave, half the population will be upset that their say was not represented.
If we stay, half the population will be upset that they didn't get what they fairly voted for.
Hands are well and truly tied.
Clocks ticking, but towards what? I dread to think.
