Very weird that they can blame remainers for brexit things going wrong wtf it's the brexit that caused the problems, not remaining - because they didn't remain. Morons


The leaver mindset is already one of blaming anyone and everything for life's problems rather than taking personal account, but the Tories had an 80 seat majority and so were 100% in control of the brexit options they could implement. This means they needed to try and find a new person to blame for them not giving the country the brexit they promised, and the people they are pointing at are remainers who they say didn't believe hard enough, hate their country or are traitors.

The reason its such a catastrophic mess is because it was always going to be. There was no other brexit. They knew it but had to pretend it would be the land of milk and honey so as to get it through. It was absolutely always a bait & switch operation.

ironically it was all done to get the Tories more power, yet its lead to them falling out with each other so much we have now had 5 Prime Ministers in 6 years, the worst polling for the Party they have seen in decades, public in fighting within the party and the very likely loss of power in the next 2 years.

That's the thing isn't it: what exactly was the Brexit they promised? No one knows. A lot of Leavers said they expected the UK to be out of the EU the day after the referendum, like clicking their fingers. They didn't know or think that 50+ years of being in the EU meant thousands of rules and legal situations had to be carefully unpicked. Even if laws were just cancelled immediately, it still takes time to process cases that are halfway through.
