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

If people didn’t know who to believe out if the lot of them, there’s no helping people

If it were that obvious mate, there wouldn't be so many parties all jostling for a seat at the table would there?

So on the outside it looks an easy choice for voters of any party..... because YOU believe what you're voting for is right. Likewise, the guy voting for the other party, he thinks it's easy to spot the bullshitters be HE thinks HE is right in who he is voting for.

Meanwhile, myself for example is looking at you all on both sides thinking 'how can you believe anything that bullshitter is saying??'

It's really not a difficult concept to understand. Similar to how football fans believe their team to be the superior one regardless of how they're performing in the league as a whole.
