All official narrative these days has no argument for, because in fact there is nothing to recommend them, and when ‘the science’ is involved there has no supporting evidence, just deceit, lies, part truths, predictions of doom if we don’t do as we are told. Dissenters are vilified, ignored, silenced too stupid to understand, swivel-eyed conspiracy theorists, racists, granny killers, haters of the poor, destroyers of our children’s future.
I think it started with environmentalism in the 1980s and its monster child, climate change. It has been finessed during the CoVid Government sponsored crisis.
Worth remembering too that ‘Vote Leave’ campaign started in 1975 and the 2016 referendum was only what had been delayed for nearly 30 years. All three Parties had promised a referendum if elected, but then reneged when in Office (Not the right time. Other more important things to do.) for they knew the vote would be ‘leave’. I’m not sure how much either campaign affected the final vote. Maybe the vote to leave would have been bigger without the scaremongering.
What is even sadder is that neither side 'marketed' themselves correctly. Neither side really knew how the EU worked; and if they did, they hid that from the electorate. Very wrong decisions were made by the Leave campaign which again can be laid at the door of their ignorance.
What is even sadder is that very very few who voted had no understanding of how democracy should work and paid the price of, following the result, political ineptitude.
