We are stupid remember, leavers did not know what we were voting for, but of course the remainers did.   Mmmmm

Yes, we knew the "£350 million per week we pay to the EU" was a lie, and immigration could not be stopped and those "not born here" could not be sent "back home". Very basic stuff because that is what was being fed to the voters, and when the truth about it came out, and Brexit would be a very hard job, people like Buffoon Boris just disappeared!

I knew that too but chose leave  ......

A local Tory councilor reckoned that the leavers were just ill-educated

There was little or no analysis of what a vote to remain would have entailed, nor has there been since. 

Just an unspoken assumption that it would have been business as usual.   

We would have found out what voting remain meant at the forthcoming Multi Annual Budget negotiations and I'm sure that the 16 million would have been content to relinquish the rebate and pay £4 billion a year more for our membership of the EU.

It would have been worth that to avoid the whinging of the last three years. Let alone however long it takes to get a result of any kind.

Let alone the enormous cost to the UK in administration, flights to Brussels, hotel and food bills, extra civil servants, tons of paper..................oh, and arranging extra ferry capacity along with setting up special motorway barriers, signs - which we still have - along with tests like trying out Manston as a lorry park...................the list must be endless if you also include commercial "arrangements" such as stock piling; and we will be paying for it all in addition to the get out Brexit EU charge

No, of course not, just all those that just about every single (sane) economist has done...

No, what you are referring to are the endless negative predictions of voting to leave which didn't come true and the ongoing negative and frankley hysterical predictions of what will happen if we actually leave, many of which have been discredited. 

There has been little or no analysis, of the economic or political consequences of a remain vote.

We do pay that to the EU, although some of it comes back to the UK in the form of rebate,with very explicit instructions on how it must be spent.
No-one in any campaign mentioned stopping all immigration or sending foreigners home, unless you were listening to radio BNP ?
Boris didn't disappear, he was appointed foreign secretary and subsequently resigned in disgust at Mays chequers plan surrender treaty.

I think that Raab has a good chance

Trouble is for three years our country has been put down, underestimated, sold out.... you know the rest, reminds me of Chamberlain. For fks sake get out, we were great once and can be again without this EU s#it

It's all Putin's fault: he got the Conservatives into power to be even bigger oppsups than Trump to take some of the heat off him. And it's the best investment ever because it's still working!

I made that point some time ago. The plain truth is people do not like change. Never have and never will. Anything for an easy life. They do not see the bigger picture or the danger of a federal Europe. We shouldn't be critical as it is just a normal human trait. It is why people stay in hopeless marriages rather than embrace a clean break and do the right thing. They even come up with plausible excuses .

If Britains contribution had doubled , the spin put on it would have made it look OK. Somebody has to pay for the scandals like ERES. ( 775 million).

No, I'm referring to just about every single piece of analysis done, before, during and after the referendum.

But the Farage brainwashing* causes them all to be dismissed as Project Fear. Which means suddenly they are irrelevant, because the reality of it doesn't match what was/is being promised by some.

Sigh. 

You are still talking about the analysis and predictions of leaving not remaining.

WTF are you smoking?

They all did analysis of remaining.

They all did analysis of leaving.

Then they compared.  That's how this shit works.
