Re: Tell me about your family and friends AFTER the referendum

In my great age, I have lots of descendants.

Go back a couple of years and they would, probably, not have taken much interest in Brexit and may even have not voted.

In the current climate, all that has changed.

They are absolutely shocked at the way the EU has treated the UK (and Greece) and. perhaps, one good thing coming out of this situation is their highly increased interest in Politics and the many betrayals therein.

Future MP candidates will need to consider the requirements of their voters much more than in the past. MPs like Philip Lee will need to reflect on their promises at pre-election visits and concentrate more on what WE want from our reps.

My lot?

I would suggest that they are now 100% in the leave frame.

Did anything change?

Comment down below what you felt in the few days/ weeks/ months after the vote.

Anything would be incredibly helpful! Thanks, Abi.

The Puff Post probably.

Personally I don't care what my family or friends think about Brexit. I voted for ME.

Whatever it is, I think it would be good to demonstrate that the " leave" voters have not changed their minds, despite the underhand ways that people have tried to change a democratic vote.

Older people have more experience of politics from the past, where young people can only look at the immediate benefits!
I voted leave, because I think the long term outcome will be better for the young, & the young people in my family always listen to me, because they know I have their interest at heart, and have always done what is right for them!

Re: Tell me about your family and friends AFTER the referendum

I voted leave as did my close family and friends , the following day I could feel anger from stay voters and I wouldn't discuss my vote with anyone , I could even feel anger in the air mixed with a feeling of elation , I would vote leave again and again and the soonest we are completely out the better .
