In those circumstances must we all go along with jumping off that wall because the majority thought it was a good idea at the time? Or have enough of the majority changed their minds to stop this headlong rush over the edge?

This seems to be a variant of the standard Remainer’s answer. The edge in my definition is neither 3 feet nor 300 feet high. It is the border between the UK’s sovereignty and EU dictatorship at the behest of Germany and France.
Are you the sort of Remainer that wants to be part of Macron’s vision? Are you content to work with someone who is showing his true nasty colours?

She insists that the holiday company should provide them with a holiday that does all of the above, even though they've been trying to clarify what she wants for two years, but the family has been too busy arguing with itself to give an answer!

My 3 enumerated points need to be taken together. By isolating #1, all you are doing is deriding May (instead of Macron which you should be doing). May is doing badly, but it has nevertheless brought out the worst in the EU and we should be pleased to get away from them.
So I ask you: do you accept the three axioms I have postulated and if not, why not?
