What's the point of such an image? Do you want fellow CUKers to pat you on the back and say, yes ScooterScot, you're in the good camp with nice people who all do the right thing and not those thick, racist Brexiters?Originally posted by scooterscot View Post
A hefty read, but given it's by the chap that had a key role in orchestrating Vote Leave, I found it well worth it:
Dominic Cummings: how the Brexit referendum was won - The Spectator
There were many interesting points, but a couple that really hit home - and particularly apply to CUK posters - was:
"The idea that millions of graduates voted because they ‘studied the issues’ is laughable to anybody who spent time measuring opinion honestly. Almost none of these people know more about what a Customs Unions is than a bricky in Darlington."
"Both sides are just like football team fans defending their in-group and attacking their out-group enemies. The more they think of themselves as original the more likely they are to be conformist – and conformist within very narrow parameters. We all fool ourselves but the more educated are particularly overconfident that they are not fooling themselves. They back their gang then fool themselves that they have reached their views by sensible, intelligent, reasoning."Comment
