And there you have it - Brexit in a nutshell.
Facts don't matter, slogans do: We've had enough of experts! Take back control! Make America Great again!
Where does most people's 'gut' come from? The messages they are slowly drip fed every day by the media, which in the UK has been demonising immigrants, europe and foreigners for decades as the source of all the problems for the working man of England.
(Despite studies showing that immigrants make a large net positive contribution to the public finances in the UK

Already many smaller industries have gone to the wall in Britain because of the problems exporting to Europe. They're all profitable because of 30 years of being able to trade directly with Europe with no barries, now the barriers we
asked for make it impossible/not profitable - they're all small industries, but when you add them all up together it forms a massive impact that bleeds out of the economy - fishing, (shell fish in particular is banned for export now, not just impractical), the equestrian industry, musicians, cheese exports, etc... MIchael Gove may have said 'we've had enough of experts', but what he really meant was 'we've had enough of exports'.
But the big one is financial services (which made up 11% of our GDP last year), which the government somehow sacrificed to save fishing (less than 2% GDP) while simultaneous destroying fishing. Amsterdam just took over from London as the largest share trading centre in Europe. That is a massive change that was unthinkable a few years ago.

This is how The Kremlin operates. They weaken countries from within. They're bold enough to carry out murders on UK soil - they aren't going to stop.
The much-delayed Russia report shows UK gov failed to investigate Kremlin interference with Brexit:

The person who got what he wants out of this is Putin. He got a weakened Europe and a weakened UK. His next step will be to weaken the UK further by pushing for Scottish Independence. And you can look forward to Trump 2024 thanks to Vladimir.
People say the best trick the devil ever pulled is convincing people he doesn't exist, but the best trick he ever pulled was making people destroy themselves while thinking it's their own idea.
Most people know "little of the subject except of what my gut feeling tell".
That's the problem with gut feeling. If you don't educate your gut feeling then somebody else will.
