Oh this.... So much of this.

This is like the UK voting for brexit only to start searching "what will brexit do for me" the day AFTER the vote...

It sucks sonbad that dictatorships don't work, because democracy with stupid people doesn't work either and most people are just. So. Stupid...

For that vote, we actually had a whole-ass government produced booklet through the door.

It supported Remain and explained all the shit that would happen if Leave went through.

The plebs saw some lies about the NHS slapped on the side of a bus, suspended all intelligence, and voted Leave. In my eyes the majority was not strong enough to consider changing foundation policy, but here we are.

All the turmoil promised came to fruition.
