Four out of five voters who think Brexit has been a failure blame Boris Johnson

1. But not Farage? Because … he’s a man of the people is he?

2. Don’t just blame Boris, blame the entire Conservative Party and whatever Farage was spewing to stay in the red tops.

   It’s genuinely terrifying how close the vote was.

3. I blame the media, who failed to scrutinise the claims properly

4. Wwe were failed by those championing remain too. They lost the argument.

   And yes, I know. Populism, Farage etc

5. The depressing thing is that many of those people who hold the opinion that Brexit has been a failure, believe that it’s a failure because it ‘wasn’t done right’ and not that it was an utterly stupid and futile enterprise in the first place.

   A decade lost to this crap already.

6. I blame Nigel Farage for shit-stirring and lying. And I blame David Cameron for gambling on this in the first place.

7. Nobody blaming Cameron for gambling the nations’s future on a bid to keep his party together?

8. Maybe they should have thought about it first .
   Nothing worse than listening to people who voted for it trying now to act like it’s someone else’s responsibility.

9. Farage is more to blame than Boris. Only an idiot believed that Brexit was a good thing for this country.

10. And if Boris were somehow still leader of the Tories or a populist right party/movement, 4 in 5 Brexit voters would currently be blaming someone else. 

11. No blame for Cameron, Farage, the media or the brain-dead idiots that voted for it?

12. I wonder what France, Belgium Italy and others are blaming their problems on

13. I blame the voters – especially those protest voters who thought we would be staying in anyway! And old people with rose tinted glasses – most of whom are dead now but affecting us past the grave.

14. Corbyn had a huge part to play. He was leader of the opposition when Brexit went down. This is never mentioned.

15. Income tax increasing yet it’s brexit fault a decade later lmao I see doctors going on strikes again
    It’s been a failure due to people in power having no balls

16. I hate Johnson and he was the worse pm at the worse time for the uk…but that is like blaming the hotdog vendor when your team is relegated.

    His oven ready deal was just the may deal with a plan to renege on it later. There is NO good Brexit. It’s not possible to deliver the vague soundbites they were promised. You can’t replace EU trade my trading with Australia (on worse terms!), you can’t have a country with zero regulations having untapped access to a regulated market, you have less sovereignty as the rules you need to adopt are dictated to you without a say.

    Painting a crown on a pint glass or telling everyone it’s worse somewhere else (it isn’t!) isn’t a win…but it’s literally the best you can do

17. Fair, had Boris picked the other side, there would have been no Brexit at all.

18. I think Farage, the ERG, Cameron, Johnson and Cummings are all equally culpable.

    Oh look, they’re all right wingers 🤔

19. I blame Brexit for being a completely impossible venture.

20. The Tories bungled the whole thing from the start.
    Cameron – No plan should the country vote to leave.
    May – Triggered article 50 without having a plan in place and was on the back foot with the negotiations. Plus, she was stabbed in the back in order for Boris to sweep in and save the day.
    Johnson – oven ready deal? Oven ready bollocks more like.
    Farage – even though that man’s name is giving me the creeps never mind mentioning his involvement in the whole farce.

21. Difference is if we lost we would accept it
    Unlike people who can’t handle it

22. 4 Out of 5 who think Brexit has been a failure blame Johnson. Or Remain voters who never liked Johnson, never forgave him for his part in Brexit, never will accept any Brexit benefits still dislike Johnson – who knew.
