a failed social experiment

I thought a lot of it was around importing cheap labour, hence Trade Unions being Anti Europe. FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years

You're not allowed to that's the problem.....it's not PC and is seen by the intelligentsia of the Left as racist!

Unfortunately, with these bell-ends finding faux-offence at anything remotely patriotic, we will never be able to come together and regain a sense of national pride. This dangerous obsession with 'diversity' is out of control, and not ONE politician on any side will call it out for what it really is - a failed social experiment!

Is it so wrong to step back and think about solving this delema?

This article tries to explain why we are all upset with one and other.

As Brexit debates become ever more fractious, we are trapped in a cycle of anger, disbelief and impotence. Can psychotherapy help us find a way out?
by Susie Orbach
Divorce, which is what Brexit is, takes a long time because it is serious. For divorce to work within a family, mediation is recommended. When a family breaks up with this much hostility its members rarely emerge unscathed.The escaping partner may be buoyed up by the hope of new adventures but the remaining partner is bequeathed with anxiety, insecurity and uncertainty.
On both sides of what we might term our national trauma, there is fury and hurt. It hasn’t gone away. In many ways it has heightened in the last fortnight, as the clock ticks down. There is fear and a sense of fragility, often masked by aggression and even bullying. It is easy for both parties in this traumatic break to exclude or ridicule the legitimacy of the other’s position.

The result of the referendum was a transfer of angry feelings from many leavers, those who had been economically and socially squeezed, to remainers. There was no escaping the leavers’ fury. We have all had to see the country as broken; to give up the delusion that everyone was OK. Manifestly people weren’t. The question is how to absorb and reflect on the dispossession and rage. The Brexit vote said to remainers: “You will no longer have it your way. You are going to feel threatened as we have felt threatened. You can lose your hope as we lost ours.”

Read again this quote from a leading Anti EU MEP.

Mr Healey, a former MEP candidate for the English Democrats, launched the petition in November stating: "We the undersigned call upon HM Government to implement a rule that if the Remain or Leave vote is less than 60% based on a turnout less than 75%, there should be another referendum.”

However, the author of the petition has now published a statement distancing himself from it. William Oliver Healey wrote on Facebook: “This petition was created at a time (over a month ago) when it was looking unlikely that 'leave' were going to win, with the intention of making it harder for 'remain' to further shackle us to the EU. Due to the result, the petition has been hijacked by the remain campaign.” FL2 XS SD4 Auto 2010 2012-2017 (21k - 91k miles) (MY2011)
