I am sure that you are capable of understanding what is best for you and what might be best for the country and you chose what was best for you - nothing wrong in that as we all do this from time to time.

None of us chose anything. What I did was support what was done because in my opinion it was done because the action was decided by those best placed to consider it. Not by bar room experts pontificating from prejudice. It also matched my own view of what was best for the country. What was best for me personally never entered my mind. I have never thought about that. Not then and not now. It’s just not how I think about things.

So it's a down to the person involved and their policies rather than parties? Just like how Trump got elected then.

We don’t have a Presidential system thank goodness so the risk to a gullible electorate of being conned is much less.

Hopefully we aren’t so gullible although we did allow Johnson to achieve his personal ambition to become PM through fairly Trumplike tactics, so perhaps not.

Bitchy, spiteful and unnecessary, George.

Also very funny.
