Not really. It's been highly divisive and nobody knows where it will lead; I doubt whether anyone voted for that.
Most people who voted leave seem to be thinking like those who want to nationalise the railways; they want to return to some supposed golden age in the past. However, "the past is another country"; there's no going back. My hope at the moment is that Corbyn will now be wagged by the Momentum tail that brought him to power, have to promise a cancellation of Brexit and then whatever the result of the next election, at least we lose one harebrained scheme.
it's not really that divisive at all.
you basically fall into one of two camps.
1)government should be as small as possible,and let business/individuals etc adapt to the needs of a particular market,be it transport,municipal services etc
2) government shall direct business/individuals to certain methods of working for the wellbeing of the collective/society at large.
lets take climate change as an example.which do you think is the best way to deal with fossil fuels?
1) let engineers innovate and tout some ideas on the market for new efficient engines(perhaps 50% of the projects will fail, but 10% will have legs and be adopted by corporates as it significantly reduces their operating costs)
2) legislate that by date x, you will no longer be permitted to operate machines with a co2/kg/mile output of xxx.
3)ration/tariff fuel to a certain quota per business/individual until targets are met.
I fall very much into camp 1 here, and I would much prefer to see incentives and kickstarter funds to meet targets rather than people trying to micromanage every aspect of my life, from what I can drive,to where I can drive to,to what I eat/drink etc etc.
