the culture war

What is the culture war?

They're just not possible when Britain is such a tiny country.

Logically then you're saying that as a member of the EU we got money handed to us, sourced ultimately from larger/richer nations like Germany.

For me, this is a reason to leave the EU, not be part of it.

This is 20 years old and woefully out of date, to the point that its arguments are no longer valid.

  • Councils/areas that received EU funding that are now feeling the pinch

  • The sheer number of job losses

  • Reduced movement

None of these seem to be dependent on being a member of the EU, only dependent on a competent government making good financial and budgetary choices and good treaties.

To me these are problems which have been only revealed by brexit, not caused by it.

the negatives

Just out of curiosity, what negatives do you see there being?

Wow, 40% are happy with the UK staying outside the EU. That's a lot of people, especially given the continuous stream of newspaper articles crying how terrible and disasterous brexit has allegedly been.
