      Who are you going to tell it to, the people who were already stupid enough to yeet themselves out of the EU ?

      why is there no concerted pushback against the propaganda?

      Excellent, keep going. Almost there!

      The people you want to tell say “Brexit wasn’t done properly”.

      The same people, probably, that say Corbyn would have ruined the economy, and when pushed say “well it’s obvious isn’t it”.

      Are you saying they should have stayed with EU?

      Genuine question, asking to understand.

          Ah, ok. What’s the propaganda though? Are there people actually saying UK should be separate from the EU?

              How does separating from the EU help business men pilfer the UK? Is it because they aren’t held responsible by EU standards anymore?

              I wonder what’s up with Russia and it’s propaganda. I keep hearing this often, is it really that pervasive?

                This chap was the leader of Reform, Nigel ‘Mr Brexit’ Farage’s party, in Wales and wasn’t careful enough to cover the source of his ‘encouragement’ to repeat pro-Russian talking points. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c891403eddet

                That they tried to get a foothold here via this useful idiot is very worrying. He got off lightly with that prison sentence; treason used to carry the death penalty and taking foreign money to fluff another state while also claiming to represent the constituents who voted for you is easily read as treasonous. I’d like to think those constituents are a little more informed now but it wouldn’t be a surprise to see his replacement voted in at the next election.

      Is the propaganda about this still there? Or just not a topic anymore in general?
