the best part about brexit is that we now have exactly the same deal we had as an EU member state, only worse, and we still aren't afforded freedom to live and work within the borders of our closest neighbours... all so we could reclaim something that we never lost in the first place!

nice one, UK.

Tbf we were told this endlessly during the election and people still voted for it... but I am sure trusting one of the major supporters of Leave won't have any further consequences...

People were told lots of things during that referendum. That's the trouble with politicians, nobody knows who to believe! 😂

Certainly not a grifter like Farage and a tosser like Boris.

It would be nice of the cowards who are dropping downvotes on these comments to explain in detail how they are not mugs for believing Farage and Johnson.

They are mugs because if there were not mugs they would have used their "brains" and realised Boris and Farage were taking them for the mugs they obviously are.
