Was the Brexit vote rigged? No.
Did Gordon Brown cause the 2008 world wide banking crisis? No.

If the Brexit vote was rigged then they certainly didn't succeed. The government cleanly and obviously didn't want Britain to leave the EU.

In my view the Labour government under Brown didn't cause the recession outright, they merely had their role and were essentially a catalyst for the actions (or inaction of others). Brexit won't cause a recession in my view, I think the markets are beginning to adjust now.

If it was rigged we'd still be in the EU
It goes to show how out of touch politicians are if they think claiming a rich businessman/poncy MP is doing something therefore every else should will actually resonate with the public.

Brown kept us out of the Euro, Blair would have had us in. Imagine that.....
No it wasn't. If anything most of the large political and powerful figures were against brexit

Never thought I would ever say this, but sadly, May. If Corbyn had a school report that summed up his leadership of the Labour Party, it would be, "Nice boy. Tries really hard."

Sadly, that isn't good enough for Prime Ministerial Material.

I get the feeling Brexit was done undemocratically.

You ARE still in the EU :wink:
I guess everyone taking their own permanent pens to the polling booth with them made sure it wasn't. :biggrin:
Absolutely. From every which way.

1) It was held down by a few positions for the tax loop holes in the British isles that would die by April 2019 If we stayed in the EU. So people like JRM would hugely profiteer. He owns a 9.73 billion company that provides capital advice based on these loopholes. Also party's were fined minuscule amounts for fraud.

2) Russian interference, they also made a stink in other EU elections the Netherlands for example;

3) And ties into the main campaign https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leave.EU#Referendum_spending_investigation
