Re: "there was real anger out there..."
the marginal win for the Leave campaign.
The margin was about the number of people that voted for the SNP, DUP & Sinn Fein combined at the last general election, or the size of the 5th largest UK city if you'd prefer to put it that way.
The problem simply is that people felt were ignored by mainstream politicans and there concerns and views of the mainsteam population were openly riddiculed with a divisive strategy (as so far as one could call it that) of fear and hate combined with "your either with us or against us".
This only works if you have a majority and are willing to keep it by playing dīvide et imperā. However, it polarises and leaves the mildly no other option than full opposition, which has been well known for about the last two thousand years.
As it turned out, "remain" was in a minority and by failing to win over anybody from "leave" they lost. The supposedly intelligent and educated people then (having discovered that they were a minority by losing FFS!) then continued with the same strategy which is only driving away their own supporters now according to all of the polling data. Complete lunacy brought to you by complete lunatics.
Here's a thought: We might consider CA to be the final balancing factor in the Brexit vote, yes, but it can be argued that surely one company can't have had the clout to be that final factor.... ...But what if CA isn't alone? What if the PtB used more than one company/method to rig/sway/influence the vote and we've only found ONE conspirator so far?
Here's a thought. You don't need conspiracy theroes. The "remain" electoral strategy was, and remains indefensibly crap. The weather (remember it rained?) made far more of a difference than facebook adverts did, as the people who voted out were (according to the remain campaign) in the demeographic who think a computer is a person who does math with a slide rule instead of an electronic device that can access the internet.
