Brexit: Voting for poverty?
'We won,you lost' seems to be the playground-like chant directed at anyone who disagrees with any aspect of the talks regarding Brexit.
First of all I speak for the many people who voted leave or remain who have concerns about the direction the country has taken over the last few months. As I remember, on the ballot paper there were two choices remain and leave.
Nowhere did I see an option to vote for being financially worse off, but since the vote the government has interpreted the result for its own interests. The Parliamentarians will be fine, they will be insulated from any future crisis just as they have been in the previous manufactured economic shocks.
As usual, it will be the poorer members of society who will bear the brunt of their bad decisions.
