Most news is pure propaganda. All of the so-called "news" (BBC, etc.) has a vested interest in keeping the status quo. They've tried to brainwash people how Brexit would instantly collapse the econ (didn't happen, did it) and they are continuing that route.

Don't fall for their lies. More self-control is not pride and stupidity.

I may be just silly, but Brexit hasn't happened yet.

Yeah, you get this a lot:

Bad thing happens = THIS IS BECAUSE OF BREXIT

Good thing happens = BREXIT HASN'T HAPPENED YET

Workes the other way too, I've been seeing it a lot;

Bad thing happens = THIS IS BECAUSE OF WE HAVEN'T LEFT THE EU

Good thing happens = THIS IS BECAUSE WE ARE LEAVING THE EU

They implied the mere vote for it would collapse things.
