My brother and I set up Inspire EU in 2017 to challenge the idea that Brexit was an inevitability. We were motivated by the idea that Brexit was a protest vote and people would soon come to regret their choice.
We have been proud to represent Britain in various capacities in different countries for most of our working lives - no longer proud to be British. That hurts.
I felt a huge sense of loss following the Referendum. I felt that the Country I had always been proud to say I was a citizen of, somehow no longer existed.
I came to SODEM to be part of a visible display of opposition to Brexit and the lies/dishonesty that fueled it.
I'd been on the marches in London and Brighton etc., but between those events I felt frustrated that I was doing nothing except grumbling and writing to MPs to express my anger.
I'm fighting to save the UK for my grandson.
Brexit turned me into a political dragon. I hated everything about it. I attended every march and helped set up MidKent4EU.
We were incensed by the lying and manipulation - particularly of less-frequent voters in poorer communities who were bombarded by the manipulative Cambridge Analytica campaign. That just isn't democracy.
I was dismayed, angry and worried about the Referendum result and what the government was doing, and I wanted to do something.
I'm Italian. Brexit broke my soul and finding guys like you helped to restore hope in my heart.
