The current system is too tribal to allow this kind of "holding to account" you describe.
Also, the argument is not that the "government is rubbish" (which it is
), it is rather the moderating influence of common sense EU directives designed to protect the consumer as opposed to the (lack of) UK laws designed to benefit Business and their shareholders.

Leavers like myself are fully aware there may be a rocky road ahead but believe we can get through it.

A perfect contradiction: on the one hand you say, "don't worry, things will be fine you will see" and then in the same breath, you say "there may be a rocky road ahead but believe we can get through it"
You can't make it up ... no, actually, you can .. it was called the Leave campaign
