You seem to think and you are right to an extent, that the NHS promise was the swinging issue.. I am not sure for how many that was the single most important thing and swung their vote.. Neither do you I suspect.

I dont know all the reasons for people voting leave but on two key points made by the Leave campaign, the £350 million was a deffo lie, that and the control on immigration were i suspect two key facors.

I said I would find the decision more acceptable if it had been decided by a government with a mandate gained at an election to make the decision, I didnt think and still dont think that a referendum was the right mechanism for the reasons outlined previously.

I have no great faith in politicians but in the absence of a better system of government its the best we can hope for, I have even less faith in the ability of most people including myself to be able make a reasoned decision on such a complex issue through a simple in or out vote.
