I’m in Malta on holiday at the moment.
I can not fathom how this is a part of the EU

The whole island looks like an abandoned building site

There are bags of rotting food and food waste like bones in the street

In 3 days I have only seen 3 decent cars, a RRS, 991.2 and a Cayenne.

The car parks here are a joke, badly laid out, inadequately planned

It is very obvious that standards around things like Healy and safety are woefull compared to the U.K.

There is little evidence of any measures to reduce environmental impact or improve animal welfare

The roads are shot to bits and there is shocking traffic even in the low season

Apart from one EY building I have seen no evidence of any economic activity outside of tourism

Our pizzas came yesterday and there was no cutlery, we asked for some but the bloke never returned

I simply can not fathom how a country like this with the population of Bristol, is given an even footing at the table in the EU it seems utterly ludicrous.

I did vote remain but based on this, especially the pizza experience, I will be voting leave in the 2nd referendum
A bad Maltese pizza restaurant is going to change your mind from remain to leave?

Wow
There were other things in my post too, to do with infrastructure and economicc matters, you have cherry picked, typical remoaner

However as you called it out- the pizza thing was a total ball ache- I had a burger,and my wife was left going over to another waiter and asking him for cutlery. The pizzas were not good actually.

Today I ordered a Recces peanut butter milkshake. It came with M&M’s not Reece’s pieces as a garnish as they ‘had ran out’!!??

Our hire car is a C4 cactus, whilst I wasn’t expecting it to live up to my R8 at home, the could have serviced it at least, it is overdue by no less than 19,000 km

The place is a joke and if this is the level for EU members then we’re best off out, and then there are all the Target 2 concerns in addition.
Plus they have loads of falcons. If we are not careful they will take over. We need to protect British birds.

For many of us, this was never in doubt. The government banked on enough of us plebs to swallow this whole charade that's been playing out for almost three years now.

I still think it's 50/50

There is no way the government has this under control.

The government hasn't had control since at least 2017... Some would argue they didn't really have it before then but since the 2017 election they've been dependent on non conservative MP's to pass legislation. So realistically it's anyone but the Tories in control.

"Do you think the following would/would not honour result of 2016 EU referendum?"

Having another referendum
Would 23%
Would not 58%
Don't know 19%

Leaving with PM May deal
Would 35%
Would not 36%
DK 28%

Leaving without deal on WTO
Would 41%
Would not 33%
DK 26%

YouGov Mar 11


Personal comment, not sure about the question wording, "honour the result " seems to prejudge and slant it towards one set of answers, but nevertheless telling.

No looking back now. A politician has actually followed through on their main election promise, who’d have thought it.
