this excuse seems to be pretty popular nowadays
you can undermine every single election/referendum with this argument, i could also say that most merkel voters have no idea how harmful her policy really is and thats how she got reelected
its not my business however, adult citizens are able to make their own decisions (and have to live with the consequences)

do you even realise that this patronising attitude is a major reason for this to happen in the first place? same goes for the election of trump

1) That's why democracy is a crapshoot and should be ditched in favour of a better system.
2) That's why we have representative democracies in the US, UK and much of the rest of the world and don't usually rely on referenda. People are idiots.
3) That's why we need meritocratic totalitarianism.

Vince Cable, Leader of the Liberal Democrats, says Brexit was about old voters having 'white nostalgia'. Makes sense he'd say that considering his base is now mostly young voters that want a complete reversal of Brexit.

BREAKING. LEGA leader Salvini: "In case we need it [in a potential government], Italy may go beyond the 3% deficit/GDP threshold. Euro is still a wrong currency, we are working on a B plan. Changing European treaties is a priority"

Businessman Aleksej Gubarev is suing the Buzzfeed website, which published the dossier in January last year, for libel in a Florida court over claims made about him and his companies and as part of his case his lawyers asked to take evidence from Steele.

Last November, a British court ruled Steele should undergo lengthy pre-trial questioning and in February his lawyers sought to have that order quashed, arguing it could put his sources at risk and harm UK national security

On Friday, the High Court in London agreed Steele should provide a deposition which would be used in the Florida trial, Gubarev’s lawyer said.

“The court has rightly ordered that Christopher Steele must now answer under oath the relevant and appropriate questions to be put to him in deposition. I expect the deposition to take place in the next eight weeks,” said lawyer Steven Loble.
