Some of us recognised this in 2016, including my local County Councillor, who was beside himself with the stupidity and even then very concerned about the various projects that would be impacted. That was well before the pandemic hit us. He sits as an independent but assured me that the Council, which is almost all Conservatives and independents, were as one on the need to remain a member. Just like Westminster, those in the know, knew it was folly. So how come if it was such a known; that less voted to remain.

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

Why do you still want to hang on about this? Lost after a referendum, lost after a General Election called specifically to deal with this issue, lost in Parliament after multiple votes over 2 Parliaments and even lost in the courts after various court cases designed to hamper the outcome. Still maybe it's time for another vote we haven't had one in parliament for just over a year.

People probably didn't notice then and still aren't noticing that Johnson is a serial, outright, extreme, psychopathic liar. But to the untrained eye that of course is invisible
