You may be right, you may be wrong, i may be, only time and actions will tell. Moving forward can be working together to consider rejoining as much as the opposite. Campaigning is fine, moaning isn’t. We can move forward with life in our current constraints whatever they may be whilst looking at rejoining, if a majority to rejoin becomes the reality, great thats democracy. Standing still achieves nothing, zilch, it means we get left further behind in any direction. Moving forward does not mean standing still or stagnating, but we need to do it together where possible. The blame game has no winners. Thank you for those kind words too btwColuka, as a very long standing member of this board and undoubtedly one of the most popular I have always read your posts and considered your views and opinions on Brexit even when they don't match my own. You're pretty much always respectful in your posts on what is without doubt a very divisive subject and that is a credit to you.
However, I have to say that this idea that we need to just move on for the greater good and leave the Brexit shambles (that, IMHO, is exactly what it is) behind us is inflammatory and divisive in itself. People can't just take it on the chin and move on when there are many metrics under which we are now much worse off individually and as a nation. Our freedoms have been eroded, not enhanced, and to suggest that those people who voted to try and avoid this mess need to just move on is akin to burying heads in the sand.
The people who are mostly going to benefit from Brexit are not the majority of the millions who voted for / were hoodwinked into it, but those small numbers of people who wield power and influence via the means of propaganda. They will benefit greatly.
The Brexit discussion is ongoing, and will be for quite some time - to try and sweep the mess under the carpet 3 weeks in when major problems are already apparent will not be the correct medicine for this illness.
