the people that allowed the referendum to happen in the first place
ol' spam face is an easy target for this but really the whole tory party, as if we needed any more reasons to hate them, are at blame for legitimising and encouraging the UKIP-ification of politics so they could win an election while signing up the whole country to god knows how many years of greater hardship
+1 for this. Though it definitely feels like a big 'told ya so' when there's stories like this, I have to remind myself that I'm really angry at a) the people that allowed the referendum to happen in the first place, and b) the people that lied through their teeth to ensure we left.
A decision that will likely affect almost every aspect of the U.K.'s future, and everyone in the country was give one equal vote. Why was I allowed to decide? I don't know anything about anything to do with this. Isn't this why we elect politicians, so they can make complex and important decisions on the behalf of the population? Sigh.
