Brexit by now should be seen far what it was: a farce of misinformation and lies which should have been halted as the playing field had been contaminated.

Also a great example of why you can't have a single and very important choice being put to the public without said public being used to participate to the government's choices.

I believe Brexit as a question, if ever, should have been asked after at least 3/4 other new referendums on different topics and seeing how the public responded.

(to note: the UK had, so far, only 3 nationwide referendums with Brexit being one of the.)
