I should never have been able to vote in the referendum 20:17 - Nov 15 with 7245 views | gtsb | I consider myself fairly intelligent, not as much as some on here , but the last few weeks of watching the news and reading the papers have shown that I didn't have a clue what being in or out of Europe would mean, not a clue. I would say 80% of the country didn't either. We should never have had a referendum. | | | | |

I love how all these people who don't believe in referendums and think that people are too thick to make an informed decision are now calling for a second referendum. I'm all in favour of a second referendum btw. [Post edited 15 Nov 2018 20:27]

I can only say that because of the time I have spent a lot of time working within the EU and for EU companies so I appreciate your candour. | | | | Login to get fewer ads

It should’ve been at the forefront of the remain campaign I agree, but the issue was certainly raised. What did those who voted leave think would happen with Ireland? [Post edited 15 Nov 2018 20:47]

I don't recall it being mentioned during the referendum campaign. It only cropped up about 18 months ago as far as I am aware. Of course we had a common travel area between ROI and NI before either of us joined the EU. | |

Personally I didn’t give it a thought, but probably thought we’d have a border like before. Can’t see the problem with it really, but appreciate it’s a pretty imotice subject for all concerned over there. The fact that we seem so unbrakably tied to the EU simply confirms my desire to leave. I feel it’s shocking the way they have member nations by the short and Curlies. We’re probably one of the very few that could just about get away with breaking away and not being completely ruined. Italy, Spain, Greece, etc, certainly couldn’t. | |

It was one of the points I raised over and over again in my belief that the Brexit referendum was disingenuous and "leave" would never happen, a position I have held unwaveringly since (as well as before) the vote. I guess that makes me really intelligent, which is weird because I would have voted leave if I had been able to do so. [Post edited 15 Nov 2018 20:58]
