I’ve a confession to make. Post-referendum I didn’t care that much if we left the EU - it’s nowhere near perfect. Now I realise the damage it will cause. Some will be short-term, hitting the poorest hardest, some, in terms of global status, we will never completely recover from.

We stand by our statement. You are searching for some kind of political absolution but unfortunately, it was and is still your job to informed of the outcomes of a national decision and to not be so flippant with statements like "I didn't care that much". You had a duty to care.

I’m being honest. There are important issues other than Brexit. I am a Home Affairs spokesperson, not a Brexit spokesperson. There are matters for which I am responsible and they do not include the entirety of Brexit. Taking entrenched positions encourages no one.

Whilst fair to the point of your home affairs role, and that there are other issues, few are so extensive. As a constituency representative don’t you need to care about issues that affect every one of them?

Well, as far as I can see that a good chunk of consequences are well investigated. They might not give you exact details but on legal, economic and political implications it should be reasonably clear what the options and which results you can expect.

By the way, I know that MPs don't have the time to dig into details, but this matter'll shape the decades to come & nearly every policy area. For me it looks like that most people spend just little time on it, even the ones who are supposedly well informed given their positions.

...and I’m not an MP & don’t have a constituency FYI

Should have checked it beforehand ;). But politicians and MPs are in this case used synonymous.
