I know this is boring as I've been saying this for years now.
Brexit has become a proxy for patriotism. The anti-europeanism is both its point & only reward.
So don't kid yourselves they'll be a 2nd referendum anytime soon.
The way back is only thru alignment & competent govt.

Dealing with remainers who consider such talk traitorous is weary but neccessary.
The faster you get to competence, the quicker you get to alignment - which is the ONLY way back.
The Rejoin campaign thus can't really be - publicly - about Rejoin for the next couple of years.

This thread has engendered some term confusion, so:
“The patriot is proud of his country for what it does, the nationalist is proud of his country no matter what it does; the first creates a feeling of responsibility, the second a feeling of blind arrogance that leads to war.”

Many soft/swing leavers attach a feeling of (in my view misplaced) patriotism to Britain standing alone & Brexit.
We will have to wade through this phase & detach them from the nationalists.
