69 Reasons why...

[GB9]

Best excuses I've heard for voting Remain so far include:

"I thought we had to"
"I didn't realise there was a choice"
"We were told there would be an immediate tax if we didn't"
"My holiday would cost more"

Good to see the important issues were considered in depth.

Such an ill-constructed parody thread? Open goal.

I know those 68ers what muppets?

Loads of unsubstantiated cobblers.

Those were the excuses you used claiming others made them.
Many people who voted to remain did so because they are contractors, unlike some on here. They actually travel to contracts.
They also voted remain because working with people is better than working against them.
And they voted to remain because the claims made by the Leave camp contained few facts and were more about sound bites. There was no plan for leave, there still isn't. The Leave campaign contained so many holes that most of their website was taken down within hours of the victory so that the promises/pledges/etc would be more difficult to find.

seemed to work though, unlike project fear and you had so many government departments behind that. How many million did vote remain spend illegally sending the electorate a load of lies?


We had Nige and a Battlebus with Bollux on it still they preferred to vote leave. Tells you a lot.

There you go:

Around £32m was spent on the campaign – with the Leave side boasting donations of £16.4m and Remain at £15.1m.

And both being investigated although it looks like Leave were the bigger baddies...

Don't forget the anonymous funding of Metro advertising via DUP.

blimey so after the Government spending £9m on a remain leaflet (what I was talking about) they spent another £15M so they spent nearly twice as much as leave and they still lost.

EU referendum: £9m cost of taxpayer-funded leaflet warning about the 'damage' of Brexit angers Eurosceptics

Nearly £10million pounds of taxpayers’ money is to be spent sending a leaflet to every UK home warning about the dangers of a “Brexit”, prompting a Cabinet row over the use of public money.

The Government announced on Wednesday night that it was spending more than £9.3million on the pamphlet warning that an EU exit would put jobs at risk and increase the price of household goods.

Boris Johnson and other Eurosceptic ministers accused the Government of using public money to "scare people" ahead of the EU referendum.

The only person I know who admits to voting Brexit gave these reasons:

"2 million Turks are moving to the UK in 2017."
"Blokes can marry their boyfriends now."
"My [half-Spanish] kids will never be able to buy a house in their home town, because there are so many immigrants."
