At the start of September I attended a business leaders
dinner courtesy of the Suffolk Chamber of Commerce.
The evening was hosted by Matt Hancock MP who was
there to answer questions and strike up debate for others
to participate in around the table. The conversation
inevitably centred around the hot topic of the moment:
Brexit. Business leaders around the table seemed eager
for reassurance of a clear plan and indications as to what
will happen to the UK once we leave the EU. Although we
have been given confidence in the new Prime Minister and
her government’s ability to steer the ship, what will happen
post Article 50 is failing to be predicted.
Following the referendum, I read a great quote which was
in favour of a second vote, it said ‘who would enter
a game of poker not knowing the stakes?’ I couldn’t agree
more, which is why I predicted (abysmally) in the last issue
of iQ that the referendum would have a low turn out!
With the overwhelming amount of misleading and
conflicting information the leave and remain camp were
publicising, I couldn’t see how anyone could possibly make
an informed decision. However, it seems that I was wrong
and the UK chose to vote anyway!
