    I pointed this out to a remain voter to which her respons was "well, they are all idiots"

    Treating people like idiots doesn't get them on board!
    That says it all really. It is views like this remain voter that was one of the main reasons I and many others voted "Leave". Before the vote it was widely view by remain that those over 50 should not have a vote as it is not their future. That those unemployed and uneducated should not have a vote as they are not informed enough to make that decision. My vote for "Leave" was mainly on my belief of democracy and that every person of voting age should retain their right to Vote. I did not want to wake up on that Friday morning to find I now belonged in a Country of bigots. Not just racism makes you a bigot. I am not saying every "remain" voter is a bigot but that is the message that was getting through before the vote and even more so since.
    My voice is as important as yours. We may not agree but i have a right to a say without being attacked and dismissed for it. There was no balanced debate during the campaign and there is still no balanced debate. I personally think that David Cameron is a coward and has walked away from his duties like a spoiled brat that has lost the game so gone home with his bat and ball. The news is still being censored by the EU to show the "leave" campaign as the ones jumping ship after causing all the chaos. There was a speech by Juncker here - https://www.facebook.com/Channel4New...type=2&theater
    This has been censored. I watched this speech live on BBC news 24 and his most scathing attack is on David Cameron for his cowardice in not leading his country through to the conclusion that we have come to. His attack on Cameron was far more scathing than the attack on anyone else mentioned. It was obviously decided that that message was not in the interests of the EU. I am unable to find this speech as a whole and if you watch it you will see where it has been cut.
    If you want to point blame look at all the children in this country that are not getting the education they deserve. Look at children in poverty. Look at our struggling health system, our fire service, our police service. So many things that are already wrong with our country has happened while within the watch of the EU. We did not vote for dictatorship so why are we settling for it within the EU.
    I have a voice and if that makes me an idiot then so blooming be it!
