Brexit is here

For some time it looked as though the extensions might go on until the whole idea was scuppered, but in the end we got there. As a mild supporter*, who thought that on balance it would probably be better for the UK to get out, but who didn't lose any sleep over it, I'm glad the day has come, but I was actually asleep, rather than celebrating, at the moment it happened. (And anyway, we are still only into the transitory period.)


* if I later turned into a somewhat stronger one, it was just a reaction to the condescension and fearmongering on the other side of the debate; basically they were saying "this would be a complete catastrophe, but we the sages will save you nincompoops from your own folly"
