If you prefer the kind of environment where people have to pretend such things aren't happening, then maybe the leafy settings of Venezuela or North Korea would be more to your taste.

The Corbyn preferred settings of Venezuela are nothing to do with this. The Referendum said “Leave” and the 52% (a majority under our democratic system) understood that The perils forecast in the guvmin’s document might/would occur but nevertheless decided that they wanted to leave.
The trouble with most of the Remainers in this thread is that they won’t debate German hegemony, French skewing of the EU to their inefficient work practices, Juncker’s grand desire for Brussels control and soon. You won’t debate the shackles we’re under. All you are interested in is the economy and you want that to remain under those shackles. Terrible.
