Originally posted by Yorkie62 View PostI though it was quite compelling viewing. It did highlight the dangers of social media and how it can be used to mange voters expectations.
It summed up the reason I voted Brexit. Objecting to the establishment and feeling left behind. However you vote the government always gets in.
The vote leave as exposed just how badly this country is run. Rather than this shower, the UK would be better run by Brussels. Apologies to those who voted stay for being slow on the uptake.
What I would prefer to happen is Dominic Cummings to become PM. I am sure there is a universe somewhere that he is.Comment

Originally posted by meridian View PostI have a lot of sympathy for this point of view. Even as a Remainer, to me it beggars belief that the government don't appear to have listened to the grassroots and started work on implementing real policies that will help the JAMs and the left-behinds.

Brexit can only be delivered via a dictatorship so I'm expecting UKIP to throw their weight behind that idea.
A dictator needs a slogan, so I think "will of the people" would be ideal. A dictator doesn't need to be bothered with all that human rights nonsense and "political correctness".I'm alright JackComment
