>>We are simply approaching the conclusion that was inevitable from the day Brexit started.
Yes. But the mistake is to believe that everybody thinks it is bad.
Many, many who voted for Brexit believe that they are getting exactly what they wanted. And largely they are. They wanted no more EU influence, they wanted the end of free movement, and they wanted they they believed would be control of their own destiny.
And they believe that they are getting it, so as far as they are concerned all the current doom and gloom about Brexit is irrelevant garbage from those that voted remain trying to make them feel bad.
And when they begin to suffer, as they surely will, they will believe that it is the fault of those who negotiated Brexit, and the scheming remainers, and will never accept that it is a fundamental and inevitable consequence of Brexit itself.
And nothing will convince them otherwise. The EU was their chosen scapegoat because it made their own difficulties justifiable, and that is how they will remain.
They truly believe that when the UK begins to recover and re-exert itself, as it inevitably will, they will bath in the glory of their self congratulation, without realising how much has been lost on the way or how much damage it is caused and ignore the fact that nothing was gained..
