I may cause a few ruffle of the feathers with this question...
Brexit I voted out.
For reasons I'm not going to divulge in this post.
If another Vote/Referendum were to be called to basically ask on this forum
Brexit In, or Out what would you vote for?
Even with the dragging of feet, and I appreciate it is a complex negotiation I would still vote Out or Leave.
What would your vote be?

My reasons for voting leave in the first place were 1) I thought having the referendum was wrong and 2) I wanted to see the back of osborne and cameron and I was sure that a leave vote would ensure exactly that.
In reallity another referendum would be political suicide for either labour or the tories.
Very strange reason to vote for issues that will affect generations to come.4 -
I voted leave because I believed, and still do believe, that the UK would become a political eunuch inside the EU.
A vote to remain would have striped our government on any political sway whatsoever. This was more than apparent when Cameron tried to negotiate a better deal before the referendum - they effectively laughed at him. It would be a bit like voting to stay in an abusive relationship.
So yes, I'd still vote leave.1 -
I didn't vote because I didn't understand any of it at the time1

Have you seen the News lately?. Boris is trying no renegotiate Northern Ireland protocol and EU is laughing at him.
No change there then0 -
I voted to stay because I knew all the problems that it would cause and is going to affect people for along time to come the economy is going to suffer for a long time jobs will take along time to build up the UK can't do without the EU which is one of the reasons why they joined
We will have to see how things go we haven't been out long and already they asked for EU help and they wonderd why the EU said no0 -

I was reluctant to vote as well, as I didn't believe I had enough knowledge to have a valid opinion. I think voting is a responsibility and if people are not knowledgeable enough to make a proper balanced decision then they should admit this. Actually this is one of the reasons I'm not so keen on democracy as I think most of the population (me included, I'm not being a hypocrite) don't know what's best and it should be left to experts to decide but that's a completely different debate!
In the end I did end up voting (won't say which way) as people convinced me that I did have a little bit of knowledge, and probably more than some people who were entitled to vote. I'm a bit ashamed now though that I was that arrogant and probably won't vote on things in the future.0 -
I voted leave and would do so again.1
