How humiliating that the EU insisted that the UK follow the law that was passed when the UK were members and was the law when the UK decided to leave, and for which the UK should have been aware that it was a quite a long shot the EU was going to weaken its security dependencies.
What a terrible 'come down' that in choosing to be a 3rd country, the EU should treat the UK as a 3rd country.
Tom Harris has deleted his tweets from the referendum so you can't see his side, but here I am in 2016 explaining we know the laws, we know the treaties they do.
I have no patience for people saying that we expected to be treated as a special case when it comes to security.
I did quite a bit on security during the referendum, and I felt quite alone doing it, so I'm going to get quite mad when the people, who largely ignored it and concentrated on immigration and trade, can't understand what would be the most likely consequences of the vote.

Does everyone remember when politicians said we can't have a referendum on the deal because people had voted for Brexit and it would be asking the public again?
Does everyone remember when they said that the problem with the deal had nothing to do with Brexit?
Does anyone remember them being pulled over the fact they have now argued that the deal *was* Brexit and *isn't* Brexit?
The thing about "Taking back control of your laws" is that you can make decisions about your laws, not other people's laws. Especially not the laws you said you wanted no say over.
People who knew nothing about global trade refuse to accept the the most common method globally, attributes it to "EU thinking" and says they don't accept the position.
Gee, I hope we haven't listened to a whole load of people who didn't have a clue.
And as for making fools of themselves, why advertise on a platform that is targeting a specific set of people unless you explicitly want to as part of your campaign?
For the majority of products, it will make more sense to spend their advertising budget on more inclusive platforms with broader audiences.
