I thought the British people had voted for Brexit like a couple of years ago. Why was it never implemented?

Because the elite know better and don’t want it. We have the same problem here in the US on a host of issues.

Why was it never implemented?

Globalist backstabbers ... in the EU, in Britain, in the Euro-Media ... like cockroaches, they're everywhere and hard to get rid of

It’s like the no-so-recent ruling that Obamacare was unconstitutional.

They’ll get around to dismantling it eventually...

Her approach was to negotiate a deal that was so loathsome and lopsided in favor of the EU as part of an apparant strategy:

1. If it passes and the elites get to be a vassal state of the EU, technically out of it but getting some of the privileges and all of the burdens. The elites would have been okay with this but it wasn't their preferred state. On to Phase 2 then.
2. People refuse it and they go back to the table and make an even worse deal. Deadlines approach, lots of scaremongering over fake issues. Nobody is happy. People who wanted Brexit feel like they've been had. People who didn't want Brexit feel that they should have just ignored the vote altogether.
3. Hallelujah! A solution: Let's just have another referendum, get the right result this time now that we've spent two years scaring everyone, and we can move on back to status quo.
4. Where we are now. Oops, people flipped out at the new vote? Ministers resigned, and elections are approaching while the conservative party is in shambles? Everyone who wanted Brexit left the conservatives for a party that really supports it and those who are against Brexit left it for parties that don't pretend to support it, so yeah, shambles. May is stunned to be forced out. She did what she was told, how could this happen?

I think that's about what went down.

The British Deep State.

[Cronos]

The British voted in a non-binding, advisory referendum by a vote of 52:48 to leave the EU. This was about 37% of the electorate

Note that it was not made a binding referendum by the person who called it - the British PM of that time.

It was agreed to call for ARticle 50 in December of that year and on March 2017 Theresa called on Article 50, giving the UK 2 years to leave the EU. She called without preparing. THAT was and is unforgivable. But to give her SOME credit, no one else was prepared - not Boris, not Farage, not Corbyn.

The UK didn't have a plan, didn't have a clue, didn't prepare, nothing

Here is a picture of David Davis, the UK chief negotiator starting his negotiations with the EU

Note that UK side is not prepared. They were not. Even into 2019 the MPs had no clue. They had a training in Feb 2019 (yes, THIS year) on what a Customs union entails). Can you believe that? Entering into negotiations unprepared?

That's why Brexit failed - no plan from anyone - not May, not Boris, nor Corbyn nor Farage.

May's personality exacerbated it, but no one else could have saved it.
