If you voted for this in 2016 and now 4 years on: do you still feel that 'Leave' is the right thing to do?
Coronavirus is shutting down 'life as we know it' (and costing the country and the world untold £billions): are you still expecting Johnson to pursue his Brexit path?

Yes ,I still feel voting leave was the right decision and Johnsons is on the right path . However I'm expecting trade talks to be put on hold while we all grapple with this virus .

Seeing the way some EU states are beginning to behave towards each other, this is a bigger threat to the EU than the financial crash and migrant crisis.

I'm sure that he will still pursue Brexit.
Indeed, the current state of play with empty supermarket shelves and a f@ck%d economy, should hold us in good stead for the way we'll be living in the future.

Don't give Thor ideas, he'll be claiming that this virus was part of BoJo's cunning plan.

If by 9 months time all the oldies like me have a croaked ( not a Brexit Supporter BTW ), may it not be the time for Remoaners to push for another Referendum.

Don't laugh, there is a bloke in a shop up the road who thinks this is all a deliberate conspiracy to disrupt the world's economy. He keeps asking if I know anyone who has caught coronavirus because he wants to try it out.

Did anyone else think that when he was asked about Brexit in the press conference yesterday, he reverted from being appropriately sensible and sombre, back to standard Boris mode. It was quite something to see.

Yep, I saw that too and it really f*cked me off that he so quickly reverted to type. Right now you look at the likes of Trump and Boris, and realise just how out of their depth they are in a real crisis. I'd rather Boris focused on something else and let Rishi Sunak, Priti Patel or Matt Hancock (probably in that order of preference too) lead the briefings along with the experts.

What a stupid comment. The shelves are empty cos of selfish people. Just shop normally, there is not a shortage of anything.
I'd vote leave again and again. Brexit will prevail and this great kingdom will reign once more.

When Britain reigned, we reigned by exploiting the native peoples of Africa & Asia. Would you want that in this day and age?
If those people complained they we treated in a brutal way. The British Empire was the most brutal empire ever.
Brexit will be a disaster with or without Coronavirus.
In three years when it's starting to go pear shaped, the leavers will start all the excuses.

We still do that comrade, but now it is via zero hour cleaning contracts and not on the streets of Bombay

I’d vote Leave again without hesitation – less bureaucracy, more democracy and accountability. Have always thought that in the short-term we’d take a hit, but mid-long term we’d be better off. But totally take the point it’s all somewhat been overtaken by Coronavirus, so it will probably be a considerable time now before we know whether we’re really better or worse off.

It only came in due to his reliance on advisors and the premise that the good times would continue without hindrance. He was blinded by advice and ultimately f*cked it up.
