Brexit: Do you feel lied to?

Many in the country feeling betrayed and lied to - do you feel the same?

Leave campaigners spoke a lot about NHS spending and immigration before the EU referendum. Here's what they're saying now.

It has happened, we just have to suck it up TBH.
It will come right in the end , I am sure.
We will have some pain and hardship but at least, hopefully, we are out from under the EU and people we have not elected.

Yeah - lied to by the EU. Betrayed by the EU. Kept in the dark by the EU.

The list goes on and on .

Agreed. Boring. Both sides lied. Do we really need to keep through the same old rubbish?

Re: Brexit: Do you feel lied to?

The more serious issue is how did we ever arrive in this dire position?

It was Gordon Brown who ushered through the Treaty without giving the people a choice, without giving them a referendum. Lots of people demanded one, and plenty of MPs demanded one, but Brown ignored them.

Without our knowledge, without any attempt to inform us, educate us and make us properly aware of what he was about to do and how it would affect us for the rest of our lives, he pushed ahead with the Treaty. This was the travesty. In that act he banished sovereignty, he banished the UK parliament and Westminster, he banished the Labour, Liberal and Conservative parties, General Elections and ultimately banished democracy itself. Had we stayed in the EU, all of those things would have disappeared . . . forever . . . with no chance of ever restoring them.

As a population we have to ask, how could a fat politician or PM ever wield such power to dictate such monumental changes to the country without a public vote? That situation HAS to be changed and done so immediately and those that have done this to the UK should be brought to trial and possibly tried for treason.

No I don't feel lied too but then I didn't take most of what was said from either side literally it was only supposition.

Re: Brexit: Do you feel lied to?

The numbers have never added up, now there is a convenient reason to substantiate it, maybe.
