I do think Brexit has polarised things though because whether you're Leave or Remain has almost become part of people's identity in many cases. I still dont see why opposing views can't be respected though. I hold different views on it to most of my friends and family but that doesn't particularly concern me, I just feel a bit awkward when I'm out and about with the Mother and she's got her big 'Stop Brexit' badges on
