It was their choice to leave the EU. Now stop complaining.

Leave won by a margin of 3.78%. There was also very little talk of leaving the single market. In fact much of the talk that there was of that came from the Remain campaign and was shouted down as project fear.

Everyone knew that brexit means leaving the single market. The entire point of Brexit was to 'take back control'. People voted for this Brexit in 2019. They made their bed, now they can lie in it.

Brexit means Brexit, not breakfast in Paris.

No. 48.11% of us knew that. 51.89% were sold a lie.

Well, actually, probably a few of that 51% knew that. But a lot of thought (because much of the leave campaign literally said so) that we could leave and have some kind of EEA agreement.

I'm pretty sure everyone outside of the UK knew that.
