The problem is that many Leave voters attached more meaning to it, such as "less immigration", even though there was no manifesto to reduce immigration for a Leave vote...

And as I recall many/most of the 2014 cuts were overseas.

But okay, let's throw in The Express for balance.More than 50,000 people took an exclusive poll by Express.co.uk last week which asked: “One month on from the EU referendum, how do you feel?”
The results were decisive, with 71 per cent of people saying they felt “hopeful and positive”, while just 19 per cent were “fearful and concerned” and ten per cent “uncertain”

An exclusive poll by the Express, on the Express website, polling Express readers. Here's your balance. :rotfl:Don't blame me, I voted Remain.0 -

Promising a referendum turned out to be political suicide for Cameron, so anything is possible!To err is human, but it is against company policy.0 -
First I have to say that the web site this comes from seems a little crazy.
However the point that is made is that the man Appointed by Mr Juncker to lead the out negotiations is a clever, Inteligent, tough guy. Well educated and a trained diplomat and negotiator.
He takes up his appointment on October 1st.
He will have plenty of time and considerable resources to assemble a powerful team in readiness for the beginning of the process.
I only hope we have a better team.
Except he's an MEP not a commissioner. This is the guy that really countsBelgian diplomat to head EU's Brexit taskforce

You used to be better than this C....
If you're going to now spend the next few years denying the obvious it'll get a bit tedious in a distinctly geneer kind of way.
Why not just accept the economic fallout from Brexit as it happens with good grace and then make a case for why you think it's all worth it anyway?
Rates were going to stay low anyway. You can get 10 year mortgages for around 2.7%. The bank jobs are going because people do their banking on line. There are branch closures throughout the EU. But then you know this and are simply using Brexit as the excuse. Same old.
Yes there will be short term pain for long term gain but that's no reason to allow ignorant posters get away with blaming everything on Brexit and constantly looking for the negative.If I don't reply to your post,
you're probably on my ignore list.0
