I’m sick of explaining the real Brexit story to ill-informed foreigners | Robert Taylor

“You Brits are crazy!” I’d only been in America for half an hour, but the conversation with my cab driver had already turned to Brexit. “Why do you say that?”, I asked, genuinely curious. He paused for a few seconds, obviously thinking hard. And then, finally, he gave me his answer: “Well, that’s what I read”.

I’m sick of explaining it to friends and family

So go fishing, please

I was actually hoping that you might have actually written something, anything really, that would explain why Brexshit is a good idea. Perhaps you can tell me how many EU laws the U.K. has had a problem with over the years and the reasons why? Glad you didn’t repeat all the lies
