How do we resolve the Brexit mess?

I'm was hoping that it would start prompting adverts for a few bot-like posters on here.

One of them has a thread where he talks to himself.

It needs to be renamed The Bigga Picture.

It needs to be renamed The Bigga Picture.

False advertising.

False advertising.

Thought I knew quite a bit about ales, but never come across a steam infused one. Perfect metaphor, but weird USP.

we are not even at the end of the beginning.

But we are at the beginning of the end.

I don’t even think the loss of trade has been the most damaging aspect of it, it’s what it’s done domestically that’s far worse and will take even longer to undo.

We’re about to be on our fourth PM in just over six years despite having the same party running the government the entire time. That statement on its own shows how damaging it’s been, let alone the erosion on our civic liberties or the undermining of the rule of law we’ve allowed them to do as the key supporters have been allowed to take control across the board.

Brexit is not a policy, it never really has been. It’s an ideology that has enabled some of the very worst elements in our political elite to unleash policies that threaten the very core of what I would have thought would have made people proud of being British in the first place.

The issue is it’s so deep rooted as an ideology (just listen to some of the leadership debates as an example) that we’re nowhere near finished with the damage it’s going to cause, let alone on the road to any form of recovery.

The thing that still sticks in my mind is Goves statement of people “having had enough of experts”. We’re still in the world where a vast number of people listen to politicians and journalists more than they do experts or academics and I do worry just how bad the damage has to be before that changes.

great post

We've just about reached the f in fucked.

But we are at the beginning of the end.

Don’t think so. The beginning = creation of the problem. Middle = acknowledgement of problem and formulation of solutions. End = implementation of solutions. Hence ‘we are not even at the end of the beginning’.

It’s more the beginning of the end of the United Kingdom as a united kingdom.
