Oh Tories, what have you done?

TBF, a lot of prominent pro-Brexit Tories made money off of Brexit, it's worked well for them and that's what really matters to these people.

it's also created a greater class divide and put the plebs in their place. Win win, all for me and none for thee as Liz Truss has often been heard saying.

FYI Labours not reversing Brexit.

A lot to blame Tories for, but the British people voted Brexit. Cameron and Osborne were in charge at the time and both were Pro-Remain.

These new Pro-Brexit Tories were also voted in in the Brexit election. Which is why Labour wont back Remain again either.

No one suggested Labour is reversing anything DT... but unless something drastic happens it's going to get much worse. 70 years of mainly Tory Governments and the UK has gone from the greatest nation to a shit hole because the rich wanted to take back what they'd lost to reforms.

I know just pointing out it was the peoples choice. And that its f***ed either way now.

Now you could argue Cameron and Osborne shouldnt have given people the choice. But I think their intention was to win and put the issue to bed. Obviously backfired on them thanks to Johnson and Gove using it for political gain.

Not really.

Farage knew Old Labour would vote Brexit as has always been the case.

Was only a small win. Not like 70% voted Brexit or something. So I wouldn't underestimate the influence Boris had on that vote.
