A New State

"Thoughts - The impetus to join a #parallel state is not just because of Brexit, although I am a Remainer.

I live in a 'leave', Tory stronghold - it's not much fun.  The Leavers are vociferous in their justification

that Brexit must be done because that's what a democratic vote promises. They are also the loudest

voices in conversations, on and offline, that refer to wanting to be "free of EU control" there is belief

that everything that is wrong with the UK is all down to "EU control". If a 'remain' voter sticks their head

above the parapet the insults are quickly thrown at them. People I've known for years have shocked

me and I struggle to remember who they were as individuals pre Brexit. Even more shocking is to

witness second generation immigrants supporting Brexit. I can't get my head around that."
