Comment on Just 9% of British voters think Brexit has gone well, poll finds

I'm honestly more surprised by the fact that 61% of Brexiteers still think this will ultimately turn around.

We've had almost 4 years to start righting the ship, and we've done barely jackshit so far. What makes them think things will suddenly change anytime soon.

  Climate change is an easy to solve problem all we have to do is die out. Fortunately governments around the world are working on that one.

    Are you suggesting that Hamas and the IDF are working to solve climate change in the worst way possible? 🤔🤷

  The problem is if Labour bring the UK back into the EU the Conservatives are going to start going on about illegitimately denying the will of the people, the actual will of the people notwithstanding.
  
  It sets the precedent that you can just flip flop on these things.
  
  The only way to do it would be they would have to be another referendum. And I’m concerned that UKIP idiots would come out of the woodwork once again and mess that up.

    No one is talking about rejoining, just repairing the relationships
