Not to be melodramatic or anything, but the reason I voted against Brexit and still think it’s a really bad idea revolves around a belief in international cooperation and avoiding global military conflicts. Call me idyllic but I’d like to avoid war and maximise freedom.

@Halcruttenden @DeborahMeaden I live in the Netherlands. We have too many tomatoes! We used to export them to the UK but it now takes a truck driver 77 hours of queueing to take tomatoes to the UK and all truck drivers simply refuse. So now we have cheap abundant tomatoes here in the Netherlands.
