The only reasonable arguments I could get from people I know who were pro-Brexit before the vote were along these lines (I searched high and low for something beyond the ‘sticking it to the man’, racism, “take back control” slogans and blatant lies about NHS funding to figure out why sensible people might actually want this). Those people have become very quiet since cheering their victory and finding we are headed for a hard Brexit, which was not what they were voting for.

As someone who works in and has interest in both conservation and renewable energy, for me personally anything that means I don’t have to watch both sectors destroyed would be nice. Also not having my friends threatened with being deported; and if it actually comes to that I will be leaving with them. Interesting times.
