That is exactly what it was, "A NOTION" which the brainless followers still claim. It was indeed a blatant lie.
I had one guy tell me last week that to be out of the EU was far better than being governed by them! When I said that was never the case, he just twitched, and shrugged as if I were the crazy one, and this guy is of an immigrant heritage. He is also a full-on royalist, nationalist, right -wing Tory. I can't figure this type out.
The real fact is that the ERG grouping of the Tory Party has allowed it to become UKIP by any other name.
The problem with Sunak though is that he has been a Brexiteer from a very young age which rather takes the edge off being proud that we had a person of colour as Prime Minister.
