A Change of mind

I did not vote to leave at any price.

As one who voted to leave in the referendum, I can no longer remain silent in respect of the chaos and stupidity currently filling the House of Commons and connected to Brexit. The Prime Minister "reaches out" to the opposition to seek a "deal" which she can take to Brussels next week, and yet makes any agreement with Jeremy Corbyn conditional upon her deal forming part of the agreement. This is the same deal that has overwhelmingly been defeated THREE times already in the Commons and quite rightly too, as it is a bad deal for the UK. I voted leave yes, but I did not vote to leave at any price. The leave camp during the run up to the referendum date, waged a campaign full of misinformation, lies, racist distortion and fear mongering which was in itself quite outrageous and an insult to most peoples intelligence. Those responsible for the management of the leave campaign, now seek to drive this country toward a no deal cliff edge, without any resolution to fundamental issues, preferring to rely on WTO rules and a very nebulous "other means" solution to the Irish border problems.
I did not vote to leave at any price.The rights of people in the workplace, the status of those EU citizens remaining in the United Kingdom after the Brexit date, together with the rights of those UK citizens living in the EU,  jurisdiction of the European Court of Justice, The Irish border question, Free movement and a thousand other issues which had become integral to the British way of life after 40 years membership of the EU should have been addressed and resolved.  The Brexit camp however, chooses to ignore these question and ploughs on regardless of cost or consequence, plunging the commons and the country into chaos as each of the Tory party factions vie for dominance. In the middle of this, Prime Minister May snuggles to maintain a degree of party unity, but manages only to stoke the fires and insult all 650 member of Parliament. She now seeks to drag Jeremy Corbyn into this morass and get the fingerprints of the Labour party onto her fragmented mess. In the hypocrisy of her disintegrating office, she call on the leader of the opposition, who has been labelled as dangerous, a threat to security, a traitor to this country, a collaborator with terrorists and as recently as yesterday a Marxist anti Semite, to assist her with begging to the EU. Fortunately, the leadership of our party are not that stupid and have already tabled a series of "Red lines" which May is not prepared to countenance.
I have now come to the view that the complexities, or at least the complications created by the Waring factions of the Tory party, have created a situation where no feasible solution is achievable at this time if ever. Consequently, we should now extend article 50 for at least 3 years and start again, putting the final position to a peoples vote.
In this connection, I and probably thousands of others have changed my mind and now with the benefit of hindsight, realise that I should have voted remain.
