    Unawareness is the hallmark of the Leopards Eating Faces Party. ;)

    As an Oregonian, I only watched Brexit from a great distance, but the one that shocked me the most was:

      I saw that too, along with interviews from various people who clearly has no idea what they were talking about.

      Hardly anyone I know who voted for Brexit was able to name our MEPs or to highlight a specific area of legislation that they felt could be improved / should be changed.

      As a nation we have a proud tradition of general ignorance, blaming anything and everything remotely unpopular on the EU while utterly failing to engage and understand it.
