Which bit was wrong then?

Keep avoiding the facts and try and steer away again ?

There's only one fact I noted in all of that, remain lost.

That is as maybe

No 'as maybe' about it. A dislike of the EU in the government, over many years is what led to Cameron holding the referendum.

Of course there are other issues; Immigration has been used as a scapegoat for domestic issues for years and during the referendum, EU was used as a scapegoat blaming immigration on freedom of movement. Of couse remainers love to keep repeating 'you knew what you were voting for' -when in fact they should be blaming the politicians not those that voted. Or even better they should blame the poor remain campaign, if it had been better, then maybe voters would have actually known what they were voting for.

No, A dislike of the EU in certain parts of the population, fertilised by the deliberate lies of certain politicians and mass media, is what led to Cameron holding the referendum.

A dislike of the EU

A legitimate dislike of the EU and not just in the UK.
You seem to conveniently forget Corbyn voted against a number of treaties and other votes related to the EU -so does that mean you think he was and is a Eurosceptic because he was fed lies,

You make it sound as though the EU is wholly innocent and that there are no problems, only deliberate lies that led to Camerons manifesto pledge to hold a referendum.

A legitimate dislike

A dislike fertilised by deliberate lies and smears is far from legitimate.

 

[gasbanni]

Thats what you get if you have a referendum about something which almost nobody understands and almost nobody can agree on.

Ha ha ha ha good one .....part of the EU or not part of the EU pretty simple question, the majority voted out the gullible ones are scared and have a religious fever about leaving the sacrosanct EU .....remainers should be kicked out and forced to emigrate to the continent.

No, a dislike fertilised by decades of mission creep by the EU.

Cretinous crap

 

[durhamplumber]

The anti-European grumblers have been whining and complaining for 45 years, and still haven't stopped, even though they say they've "won."

A very rare case of "sore winners."

Yes, I do think they would still be whingeing, and they will never stop, whatever happens.

Rofl...The irony of that sails way over JohnD's head Im sure!..Dopy remoaners

 

[JohnD]

What's your preference, dum?

Brino?

Or another vote?

Pick one.

Actually, although not explained, I meant that immigration has been used as a diversion for economic problems in the UK: public services, lack of housing, austerity, incrase in poverty etc.

Its ironic that governments actually want high levels of immigration to drive the economy, but at the same time use them as a scapegoat.

Im not saying the high levels of immigration have not been a legitimate concern over the last decade, clearly they have and because those fears were not addressed, that led to the referendum result, but politicians have put fuel on the fire, blaming immigration for issues that should be directed elsewhere.

Hmm, what I keep hearing is the opposite: 'nobody knew what they were voting for [so we need another referendum]'
