This isn’t the first time that people have been left with the consequences of a vote without knowing the full facts. In 1975 nobody told people that the thing they were signing up for would one day include half the Soviet Union, or become a political union. When people voted for Blair they weren’t told that he was going to push for the expansion of the EU or allow through major constitutional changes without giving anybody a vote. Do people know what the net result of voting for Remain would be in 30 years? Because the people who voted Join in 1975 certainly didn’t? Have politicians ever lied or concealed the truth in elections before? Hell yes. The people never know what the full consequences of their vote will be, never have, never will. This is not something new.
