Brexit - a million protest. and a majority now oppose
Brexit - a million protest. and a majority now oppose

Over 1 million people - from all parts of the UK - marched in 2019 in central London, calling for a People's Vote on the final Brexit deal.

Mr and Mrs Teameister were amongst them.

Recent polls show consistently that a majority of the British population think Brexit is a mistake.

But we never got the chance to vote on the facts and real options. All we had was promises.

************

Remember the promises made by Brexit leaders in 2016?

"We’ll gain £350 million a week." "It would fund the NHS."
We’d get new trade deals with the US. A new deal with the EU would be “the easiest in history”.

Now contrast those promises with the cold hard reality.

- Brexit has already cost the UK billions, even before it happens.

- The NHS is facing a massive drop in EU nurses working here.

- The US President is more interested in trade wars and tariffs on UK steel than in trade deals.

- And now, with the prospect of no deal with the EU, the UK government is preparing for gridlock at our ports and stockpiling food and medicine.

Is this what people who voted Leave in 2016 wanted? I doubt it.
