Default Brexit poll voters turning to far right out of frustration

https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/b...main-sh5n8vchq

Unfortunately this is the effect of all the games being played by the remainers and their total disrespect for the outcome of a valid public vote. Both extremes are now in play and dominating Brexit and the political spectrum in general. They reap what they sow I think.

People just want what they voted for - out of the EU and making our own way in the world and not being forced by the EU to abide by their rules on many issues.

I dont think thats the correct conclusion tbf

Tories are right
Ukip are far right (debatably)

May has ****ed brexit up to heavens and back

Brexiteers are no longer tory supporters

You can blame it on the lefties if ya like, I just think my reasoning I thought up off the top of my head this second is probably more accurate

May is a remainer at heart hence her wishy, washy efforts at Brexit. We do need to replace her with someone whose heart is in the right place as far as Brexit is concerned. UKIP are not really far-right but have been labelled that way by the Left for obvious reasons. But if this undermining of Brexit continues real far-right groups will likely increase. Cause and effect.

The publics’ reaction to this combined with the remainers constant push to overturn the vote was foreseeable I think- so I believe the conclusion was correct.

Well the article you selected refers to ukip as far right... so therefore your own thread does too...

Lots of things are voted on more than once, because mindsets change over time. This may be one of them, especially considering that new polling information that you disregarded from the article you wanted to talk about lol.

most people that voted brexit wanted control of immigration back, they wanted to stop paying money to the EU, they wanted to stop being dictated to by an unelected EU.

We still have to trade with the EU, they are our nearest neighbours, so we had to come to some agreement to facilitate that.

Given all the above, on leaving the EU, the UK will be getting pretty much what it wanted. Peoples opinions on the how we do things will always be different, but the principles still remain.

That's funny, when I find myself frustrated I usually use a stress ball, rather than decide to become a neo-Nazi Each to their own

Well yes...

In my opinion, very few people "turn hard-right" if they didn't already hold hard-right views, probably keeping them close to the chest. It seems like it would be more accurate to say that anger over Brexit is causing some people's anger to spill over to the point where they will openly express the hard-right views that they previously kept a lid on.

Oversimplification is an unfortunate occurrence on Tibb when it comes to certain subjects - politics being the main one affected.

I am 'Hard-Right' in some of my views, Centre-Left in others and even Liberal in others.

But I agree with T.S about frustration over Brexit causing some people to publicise views which have been long-held but well-hidden.

I'm like that.

The brexiters voting in their droves for May's government in the election only have themselves to blame.

Any attempts to blame the left is just pure diversionary bull****. People ****ed up by voting tories because they bought into the 'strong and stable' **** despite all evidence showing that the Tory government go back on everything they said they would do. Too many people chose to vote in ignorance of the facts and a likely soft brexit is exactly what they voted for.

Yet people voted for the party that was known for backtracking to such an extent that they backtracked on not having that election in the first place. That should have sent warning lights blaring but the people that voted for the tories did so anyway. If any of their voters are unhappy with the way brexit is going then they can only blame themselves for ignoring the signs that the Tories would inevitably backpeddle.

What ifs are meaningless, what MIGHT have happened if Labour does not lessen the fact that the Tory voters that voted Tory thinking they'd get the brexit they wanted did so while ignoring the signs.

You're talking about possibilities but the reality of the matter is that we are most likely getting a soft brexit and it's exactly what the people voted for whether they like it or not. They voted for a flip floppy government and they got a flip floppy take on Brexit.

Who else could they vote for. An antisemetic hard-Left hypocrite. Knowing what we all know now about both I expect a vote would be very similar. Lack of choice is the real issue.

This country is not a two party country. People cant complain if they vote for a party with a history of flip flopping and then they flip on an issue. We were never getting a hard brexit with May yet people voted for the tories. Votes have consequences.

A common theme in many of your political posts are "only have their selves to blame", Trump, Tories, Ukip, Brexit etc etc

In other words your disdain for anyone who does not think like you is actually rather disturbing

It's becoming clearer and clearer that the vision of Brexit that the public were sold just cannot be carried out.
