    I believe that was basically what Nigel Farage campaigned on when going for Brexit.

    As did basically all Leavers in the public eye.

    But as soon as they got what they wanted, it switched to “cut off the EU entirely and depend they don’t exist”. Disaster capitalists willing to trash the country and sell it out to their chums or hostile states, so long as they get a little cut out of it themselves.
