I think the point is that the colossal self ****ing that Brexit has become was architected by your friends In the Conservative party who have held office throughout the whole debacle.

I seem to recall the day after the vote you were quite pleased, smugly so, with those you now rail against as traitors. We had, in a moment, regained our self respect and sovereignty, and Brussels would shortly be offering a smorgasbord of inducements to us to remain which we would politely decline as we made a dignified exit because, apparently, we held all the aces.

We would be massively wealthier from day one of our leaving in addition to entering lucrative new trade deals with Ghana and Brazil (America was included initially but your mate Trump fúcked us off).
