I often wonder whether prominent Brexiters who identify as intelligent backed Trump so enthusiastically because the referendum victory persuaded their subconscious that you really can just ignore reality, expertise & evidence without any consequences…
Or maybe it was just all the racism.

The slow process of compensation is utterly shameful and adding to pain. People are being bounced into accepting lower amounts.
