Where Are the 52: The Truth About Brexit Supporters and Their Disappearing Act
As someone closely observing the globalist Brexit-hating government's actions, it becomes evident that little has changed since the referendum. The process of implementing Brexit is far from complete, and Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has promised sweeping changes within 100 days. However, what we've learned so far is that the dismantling of EU laws that are hurting the UK economy will not even begin until 2028. This raises serious questions about the government's commitment to actually accomplishing the goals of Brexit. When it comes to our deteriorating economy, blame should be assigned to the 47 years the UK was in the EU, the pandemic, and the war, rather than the fact that Brexit has not yet been fully implemented.
The Reality of Brexit
It is crucial to acknowledge that the 52% who voted for Brexit were a diverse group. Some were young, while others were unable to vote, or abstained. To put it into perspective, within the total 33% of the British population who voted for Brexit:
Between 4 and 8 individuals who voted for Brexit have passed away. Around 5 to 10 voters have changed their minds, seeing no benefit from maintaining Brexit ideals. Paradoxically, approximately 2 to 4 "Remainers" have switched sides, recognizing the issues with post-Brexit policies. Between 2 and 4 individuals who couldn't vote due to age have now become eligible and would likely vote for Remain if given the chance.This shift and the disappearance of many Brexit supporters in the eyes of the public highlight the complexities and evolving nature of political views.
What Brexit Means Today
The Brexit referendum, held in 2016, revealed a divided nation. The areas that voted Leave were predominantly outside the greater London area, indicating a predominantly Northern and rural UK support for Brexit. The BBC provided detailed maps and charts showing the strength of the Leave and Remain votes, providing a visual contrast of the geographic distribution. This data is significant in understanding the regional divides that emerged during the referendum.
Consequences and Dilemmas
Living in London for the past decade, I've witnessed first-hand the financial industry's response to Brexit. For many Brexiteers, it was a day that showed the resilience of the market, yet for me, and many others, it was a day that clearly illustrated the uncertainty and unpredictability of the future. The delusion of Brexit supporters is apparent; they believed that voting for Brexit would improve the economy and the future for their youth. However, the reality has been the opposite.
These supporters, especially the educated youth, find themselves in a precarious position. They are now supporting the now-depressed bigots who voted for Brexit, relying on welfare and pensions. The future does not lie within the UK for young and ambitious individuals; it's advised to stay in the UK until Brexit is finalized, and then relocate.
Conclusion
The question remains: where are the Brexit supporters? The lack of visibility and voice in public discourse suggests that many have either passed away, changed their minds, or simply retreated into their support groups, unwilling to face the harsh realities of their decision. As the full impact of Brexit is felt, it's crucial to reflect on the long-term implications of the referendum and its ongoing consequences on the UK economy and society.
