Brexit is an important issue, the government made a complete Sow's Purse of the whole deal IMO, hence I voted remain because I knew they probably would plus unlike a LOT of leave voters, apart from the fact I can't talk to Foreign call centres who don't understand my accent, I don't hate immigrants in Europe.   Yes I’m English. Weird for that to be your first thought. Why wouldn’t I be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
