I too think Brexit is an action of profound stupidity, and that the Great British Public were conned by half truths, over-simplifications, lies and abuse of parliamentary process.
However the vote happened. Incompetence of Remainer politicians who may have forced a different outcome had they united in opposition, allowed the withdrawal agreement to be signed.
The reality is beginning to become apparent:
- Boris wants to change the agreement he signed less than a year ago
- a trade agreement with the EU is not (and never was!) the promised "easiest deal ever"
- Kent may be turned into a carpark
- multiple trade deals with other countries have yet to become close to a reality
However the BBC is skewing reporting. Tariffs on imports are a UK decision and not determined by WTO - if Boris want to reduce tariffs on imports to zero he can do so!
