When the announcement of the referendum came around, I was kind of on the fence but leaning towards remain. I didn't vote in the referendum as I was out of town during that day. One thing I do believe staunchly in is democracy and despite it being a small majority - it is still a majority.

Since then I've seen more pluses for leaving the European Union than I do for us staying in. The main reason being we won't be dictated to by Brussels anymore and despite the fact I have nothing against immigrants what so ever coming here - as long as they work for a living and contribute - I do believe a country should have full control on their borders. We never got that with the European Union, as the freedom of movement allows any EU citizen to live and work in another EU member country without a visa.

Over the past few years my political leanings have changed completely. I am not a staunch socialist anymore and I have a "clowns to the left of me and jokers to the right" view. I do not vote for any political party as I consider myself non partisan as all political parties suck.

One of the biggest isssues is the Irish border. I do believe us the UK should pay for it as we've taken the decision to leave the EU and we took the decision to take Northern Ireland from the free Irish state.
