Hull after Brexit – will the City of Culture regret voting out?

Better the devil you know?

And what about all the millions of Remainers that might’ve been better voting for the Lib Dem who were promising a second referendum if they got in.

As I said earlier Remain is as much of an unknown as Brexit.

klaxhu?, yes you're correct, so why like his wind up posts then?  He all but admitted back in November he was only here to wind up brexit voters.

If only DC and GO understood such complex linguistic challenges, we might still be in the EU

But in context, the Hull Council are concerned that the £80million EU funding (that was a known payment) will be lost and they’re expecting the UK Government to stump it up instead.  I’m not sure how Remaining was an unknown suggestion?

I call your belief that people voted on the strength of what was on the side of a bus as the height of stupidity. People voted how they did because they were affected by the EU and its policies from day to day. If people believed what was on a bus there'd be no need to have had a campaign at all. Just stick a slogan on a bus and job done. No need for making films like Lexit The Movie, and Brexit The Movie and sticking them on Youtube. No need for TV and radio debates, no need for literature and reports.
No one voted to leave the EU based on a banana. If you think they did you have no hope. Boston had the highest leave vote. It was also heavily affected by migration. Ordinary people couldn't get a decent job or a home for their family.

Note also regarding the EU and sovereignty. What's the EU dream?

"Ever closer union."

Treaty after treaty has meant the EU taking more and more control and less and less to our accountable government. No one had a problem when we were just joining a common market.
