brexit is a great example of gov ability to roll back collective plans even if voted with majority. too many political individual looking out for their own goals disregarding the public
- It's also a great example of politicians lying and fooling the public to get their way.
The concept of Brexit itself is based on a lie.Continuity - @deathboy, there were no plans, that's why it has failed so badly.fadein11
- @deathboy Dave Cameron didn't expect people to vote leave, and therefore left it to some other incompetent soul (May) to sort out (which is impossible)Ianbolton
- the idea of brexit being any sort of 'collective plan' has been thoroughly disproven through the indicative votes. even after a couple of years...kingsteven
- MPs that supported it can't decide what it means.kingsteven

"In three years, they've learned nothing and, after all this time, still haven't worked out how Article 50 functions - much less the EU. They can't get it into their brains that Westminster can't tell Brussels what to do."

I know the EU isn't a federal state but what would happen is a US state tried to secede today? would there be another civil war or would people just shrug their shoulders?
- Ask California. As I understand it, there's a fairly robust separatist movement there.Continuity
- The left are into segregation, kinda backwards...robotron3k
- alaska's fourth largest political party is the secessionists.. they've been wanting to forever. it'd probably end up yeah with some sort of fed vs state "war"colin_s
- "The U.S. Constitution has a procedure for adding new states or subdividing existing states--both require Congress to consent. But there is no procedure,"dorf

Peter Oborne's had one of his moments of clarity and written a pretty bleak assessment of how wrong he was to vote leave.
Doesn't take any responsibility or offer any ideas of a way out of the mess, mind.
- slow start but worth sticking withFax_Benson
- His change of mind is all well and good, but I see little in his admission that wasn't evident two or even ten years ago.Nairn
- yeah, lots of people have been hailing it as some kind of breakthrough but it just highlights how little they gave a shit at the time.Fax_Benson
- the only upside is that the brexit nutters are running out of heroesFax_Benson

- Regardless to Brexit - the preceding 15 years has seen UK unable to adapt to a changing world and end up being this:shapesalad
- Expensive houses. Zero hour contracts. Immigrants in working class jobs under pricing locals. High streets dead. Society/communities fragmented.shapesalad
- Brexit possibly could solve it, by making people realise where we sit in the world and adapting... that's the only hope.shapesalad
- Hopefully Shape, but I doubt it.PhanLo
- The UK adapted just fine, UK politicians/Globalis... did that to their citizens purposefully.Hayoth
