    Nearly eight years on from our referendum, and subsequent withdrawal from the European Union, was Brexit a good idea?

    Cameron and his cabinet should be in prison.

    There was no vote to be had. It was stay as you are or venture off in to the unknown without a map, compass or a plan.

    There should have been a deal on the table for either outcome. We never had that and that's why the vote should never have happened.

    Absolutely, arguments from both sides were so hypothetical, they may as well have been drawn up by J.K Rowling.

    The entitled Eton **** thought he was so clever, shutting his back benchers up and then getting the stupid plebs to vote remain. Unfortunately, when given a choice, the plebs made one.

    if he’d believed he could lose that vote he’d have built in a second vote to approve the actual deal negotiated. But he went to Eton, so it never crossed his mind the great unwashed would have minds of their own.

    The invasion of the UK by thousands of illegal economic scroungers is being implemented very successfully by this government.
