Would love to ask the 15%, what benefits? Inflation? Drug shortages? Food shortages?

I still can't shake the feeling that Brexit vote was rigged, somehow. (I went to bed thinking it'd been defeated, but the result "turned" overnight, just in time for the Hong Kong stock markets to react😂🤷)

"Leave" never really polled as a win. Until the actual vote: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opinion...
