@megatronicthronbanks @LaChasseuse perhaps not BREXIT as sold but BREXIT as 'negotiated' by those who were anti it for sure.
@EF @megatronicthronbanks @LaChasseuse they sold us snake oil.

@LaChasseuse
Right on point

@LaChasseuse I am always happy to learn that my depressing predictions about the world are not always true.
(Although free bus travel is a far cry from taxing the rich in the way they deserve. I am joking!)@phf Taxing the rich is on their current agenda...

@chad @petealexharris @EF @LaChasseuse Oh, whoa, that's *wild*. I cannot even.
I hope the responsible party is being held to some standards, there, because yeah. *No to that.*

@LaChasseuse I used to think that it's easy for minor parties to make claims. They don't have the experienced MPs or the economics to implement those changes. Now, it seems the major, old guard parties don't know what they're doing either. Is that because I'm getting older and more cynical? Or are they really getting worse?
Either way, I'm willing to try something new.
The major, old guard, parties are not getting worse; we are just getting the world they wanted us to have.
IMHO in order for a minor party to be successful they need to forge a new path, using new techniques and even new economics, because the techniques and economics of the major parties are designed to benefit the super rich minority at the expense of the working class majority.

I'd like to disagree with you about this.
The person in charge of Brexit in the end was Boris Johnson who was one of the prominent people campaigning for Brexit. He campaigned on an oven ready deal that made him our prime minister with a HUGE majority. No opposition.
The top people leading the negotiations were all pro brexit people. They went in super confident thinking they held all the negotiating cards. The UK also chose to "put pressure on the EU" by triggering article 51.
I know a lot of Brexiters are saying that its the wrong type of Brexit but this is exactly was they wanted. We have left the EU with a minimal trade deal.
