Nick - On The Mark, As Ever.

Nick Martinek, Briarlyn Road, Huddersfield. THERE is no doubt that Leave was far too complacent after the referendum. We thought we had won and it was all over bar Parliamentary implementation which would be rather dull. No-one thought Remainers would overnight become Leavers, but we did expect them to treat the result in the same way as a win at a general election. Many have honourably done so. However, some Remainers claim they respect the referendum result but, by their actions, we know they don’t. Others are quite blatantly siding with the EU and doing everything in their power to overturn our democratic decision. Since the facts haven’t changed, and a majority want the government to “get on with it”, we will be leaving. So the only result that Remain can achieve is for the UK to get a worse deal, with an enormous bill, when otherwise we could just leave, using the existing WTO trade deal.
