In short the leave voter was sold a pup by the likes of Farage,Fox,BoJo and a campaign now proven to have been funded illegally by their mate Aron Whatshisface.
There'll be them that realise that and would now change their on the issue.
Of course there'll be them who support such actions and see no wrong in it,and the 'gut feeling' voter who made up their mind long ago they don't like the EU for no good reason whatsoever........
I have an ex-colleague who is of the firm opinion that the £350 million, about trade deals etc, were not lies, or campaign promises, but merely "misjudged opinions" that were blown out of proportion by the remainers.

Seem to recall a bus with that message about the NHS on it's side...so not a misjudged opinion by Remainers. And just hear that jerk Crispin Blunt (MP for Reigate) on R4 talking about how we're going to be an economic powerhouse and how important the trade deal with the Faroes is !

I do not agree eith this view.
I know a lot of diverse people and while clearly I have more of "a meeting of minds" with those who share my liking for Europe and even for the EU as an institution there are others who voted to leave.
I have other shared interests with those "leave" people and we manage to entertain one another in spite of everything.
I do try to persuade them towards my way of thinking from timevto time. Sometimes I am surprised at their continuing reasons for wanting to leave and if I think them wrong then I try to state why that is with my reasons. Perhaps I sense in them a little uncertainty at times now too.
For the most part I still enjoy such company.

Re: ** The Brexit Thread ** - 'Brexit Means Brexit'
While we are waiting to hear what the DUP have decided, can we at least agree on another important matter:
Should it be an Extension to Article 50 or an Extension of Article 50?
Your views please.

Apparently, that is just an example of how the original misjudged opinion was blown out od proportion!

Funny that it's down to whether the DUP give May the nod on whether her deal should go the house or not

Yes. I seem to recall that one of the parties at the 2015 election claiming that if they didn't win Labour would likely be in a coalition with the Scottish Nationalists. The tail wagging the dog was the phrase used.

John Bercow has ruled out another vote on the government's previously rejected Brexit agreement if the motion remains "substantially the same".

No he hasn't. He's just said that he'll uphold the rule which has been in place since the 1600s! Flaming Brexit Broadcasting Corporation and its spinning reporting - when do they hear whether the licence fee continues?
As I mentioned last week, May was already lucky to get MV2 when the differences were so minimal.

May v the EU
This weekend, Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte compared UK Prime Minister Theresa May to the Monty Python knight whose limbs get cut off in a duel, but insists to his opponent that the fight was a draw.
