As much as I regret that Brexit happened, I don't really think this is the direct fault of the voters that they didn't understand all the issues when voting for Brexit. We have a representative democracy. Generally, you would assume if you're being asked to vote in a referendum, that either outcome would be implementable. Turns out that the referendum was really just David Cameron's plan to unify the conservatives, and he expected remain would win by a landslide, so didn't have a plan for if leave won. Of course, we did vote for those representatives in the first place, so it's indirectly our fault either way. That being said, given the enormity of this change, it was always going to be a challenge for the first year or two after it went into effect. In principle, EU scepticism is a perfectly reasonable view to have, our politicians just let us down. |
