The Agony and the Brextasy
The agony and the Brextasy... OK - let me preface this that I respect the fact that many people voted for Brexit on a completely rational basis. I respect your opinions, and I want to remain friends with you always. But the tide has turned on all this. Over a hundred polls show the result over-turned, while less than ten show the opposite. The current margin is 8% in favour of remaining, and that is a 12% swing. A million people turned up in London to march for staying in the EU (and I was proud to be there), about 200 turned up to hear Nigel Farage pontificate about his own self-importance. 5.5 million people have signed the petition to scrap article 50, while 0.5 million have signed the proposal to leave without a deal. The evidence is so clearly there. Moreover, the original referendum was so flawed - no one who understands EU finances (OK - perhaps no one fully understands that at all, but I can speak about the parts I know) would accept we can use our EU budget to give the NHS £35
