This. Why is there a massive need to have an 'enemy' apart from having someone to blame if things go wrong?

How can you argue or debate with those who deny reality? The analogy with religion is apt: Faith demands you to ignore evidence and common sense and it is much the case here.

Where is the evidence behind Leave slogans? We can see the evidence for the approaching train wreck but where is the counter evidence for the post-Brexit boom that was promised?

All I see on this forum and in the media are slogans and insults. If you have more than Faith, show us the evidence ..
But no leave voter made a mistake, no leave voter was taken in by lies. If this goes wrong, it will be the fault of (in no particular order)

Jeremy Corbyn (a leave tendency person himself)
The EU
The courts
Gina Miller
The WTO
The passage of time itself
Globalisation
Philip Hammond
The internet
Immigrants
Foreign investors
Car manufacturers both in the UK and abroad
Angela Merkel
The civil service (unelected bureaucrats)

Any others?
