Finally managed to put into words why I can't get behind brexit.
(Only taken 3.5 years!)
Because it was a fraudulent, misleading, advisory referendum, if I support brexit then that makes me complicit and I can't do that.

Dear Europe,
We may have lost this battle & with it the privilege of being #EUcitizens.
But they cannot take Europe from our hearts - I am #ForeverEuropean.
#Brexit will go down as the greatest mistake in history. #BrexitDay
We will be back. #Rejoin#TheFutureisEurope 🇬🇧🇪🇺✊🏻
Churchill's aspirational words still hold true today more than ever. ❤🇪🇺
"Men will be proud to say 'I am a European'. We hope to see a day when men of every country will think as much of being a European as of being from their native land". #IamEuropean
@ch99085464 I actually did have my eyeball stabbed on the 30th. A vitrectomy to help repair retinal detachment. Having your eyeball stabbed is certainly preferable.
Today is as good a day as any to reflect on how badly Britain is reported in Germany by mainstream media. Die Zeit says that GB is "a feudal society...where everyone at the top has at least 2 of these 3 things: Eton, Oxbridge & Ancient Greek". #RubbishReporting
heartbroken for those who will be affected the most by Brexit, and those who won't be around to see us rejoin the EU. because it will happen in my lifetime, and all this will have been an outrageous waste of time and money. solidarity with my fellow Europeans 💪❤️🇪🇺 #NotMyBrexit
Thank you for 47 years of peace, prosperity, friendship, environmental protections, workers rights, and investment in regions neglected by our own governments #LoveEU#WeWillBeBack
By showing what leaving it looks like, we have done more for the European Union than any politician or PR guru could dream of - yet still they mourn our departure. Says it all, really. Meanwhile, Farage & Widdecombe wave little flags celebrating a union that won’t survive Brexit.
Oh no...I can't bear it. the warmth and dignity with which they say goodbye to us and we in turn wave pathetic little flags. I am so deeply deeply sad and feel closer to the EU now than I ever have.
The EU have broken down the Withdrawal Agreement and its consequences in terms so simple, it's possible even the Tories will understand the document. There's even two pages of diagrams showing all the checks between NI and rUK after Brexit.

After GE2019, Boris Johnson said he wanted to be “friends” with Remainers.
He has now rejected the Erasmus+ and Child Refugee amendments.
Accepting either or both of those would have been such a positive gesture of friendship & collaboration.
He chose to crush them instead.
It is bitterly disappointing that after a victory in the Lords the government have voted down my amendment in the Commons. What could be more humane than asking that unaccompanied child refugees stranded in Europe be able to join relatives in this country?
Fintan O’Toole: Historians will not believe sheer ignorance of Brexit supporters
Were people telling deliberate lies or were they merely staggeringly ignorant ? https://t.co/TZwUoXP9AP
