Just because he voted differently to you, doesn't mean he is wrong, and doesn't mean he hates the country.

The fact the Nigel Farage has already tried to distance himself from the inference during the Leave campaign that the £395m a week we save could be spent on the NHS might ultimately cause some voters to wonder if they were wrong though.. Note, I said inference. The campaign were very careful to say that £395m a week COULD be spent on the NHS, which a lot of people seem to have mistaken for £395m a week WOULD be spent on the NHS, so the campaign never actually promised to spend that £395m a week on anything.

Still, looking on the bright side, leaving COULD be good for us. I have actually always thought that, but personally, I think it's a big gamble we can't afford to take. I doubt Leave will be able to deliver on their promise of no European immigration while having free trade though. That has been a condition of every free trade deal with the EU, and I doubt they'd allow us to get away without imposing it.

In the mean time, leaving has already potentially cost us £250bn.
