  Let's start a Brexin movement

  No no no, that's not how conservative politics work. Anything bad that happens has nothing whatsoever to do with their actions but are the direct result of some political belief of the other side. Example, hurricanes are not caused by climate change, it's because God is angry at gay marriage. >
  
  "It's all because of the remoaners." >
  
  I’d say Brexit is going rather well, the benefits haven’t shown up yet, but we finally have control to screw ourselves over now >
  
  The benefits may be the total collapse of the conservative party. >
  
  But the older UK voters are still going to keep reelecting them until they die out. >
  
  I put my toddler in charge of my mortgage. Why are we homeless!?!?! >
  
  Another Brexit Benefit(tm). We're no longer squandering cash on advancement and development which could be better used to give tax breaks to bankers. >
  
  The whole situation would quite frankly be hilarious if I wasnt living on the same island as these idiots. >
  
  Love watching a world spanning empire get reduced to a paltry 3rd world country within my lifetime. >
  
  It’s only funny because they chose to do this part to themselves >
  
  52% did anyway. >
  
  52% of voters who bothered to vote, about 38% of eligible voters, 27% of the population. >
  
  Can someone provide us non-Britons the pro-arguments of Brexit again??? >
  
  IIRC, Conservatives claimed that leaving the EU would save Britons millions of pounds a day which they claimed the UK was using to subsidize those lazy Europeans. Apparently their calculations were off (aka lying) which is shocking because they had full support from Fox News. >
  
  Didn’t they drive around a bus or something showing how much money the NHS would get by leaving the EU? How did that turn out? >
  
  Once again those damn unintended consequences of Brexit  come to bite not just the middle / lower class, it bites UP and is causes a brain drain of the top tier research academics - which will have a long term effect.   There will be no role models for young students to admire and strive to model. >
  
  Sowing: This is awesome!
  Reaping: Hey, what the fuck!?! >
  
  Britain is reaping the benefit of Brexit but unfortunately, not the way they expected. >
  
  The idiots who pushed it through are the ones surprised, everyone managed to figure out that it wouldn't be great >
  
  r/BrexitAteMyFace may never runs out of material. >
  
  So closing the border caused goods and services to stop flowing, who would have guessed. >
  
  This is more that there are pan European funding institutions for reasearch which were quite beneficial for the UK and leaving the EU cut them off.  Various pro-leave politicians made promises to match the funding, which nobody in their right mind believed, hey ho.  Academics and researchers generally did not vote leave and the ones who could have been quietly leaving the Uk since 2016.
