still, farmers voted brexit..
I tried pointing this out to some farmers on twitter recently, did not go down well.
Them: "How do you know farmers voted Brexit!?"
Me: "It says it on every poll I can find. Happy to be proven wrong."
Them: "Maybe you're just finding what you want to find!"
Me: "I'm googling the question and reading all the results. Happy to be proven wrong. Every poll I can find says so. Can you show me some links that say otherwise?"
[silence]
Them: "I'm a farmer and I didn't vote Brexit!"
Me: "But lots of others did."
Them: "Right. So all farmers are Brexiteers then!"
Them: "Farmers are lumped together not just politically but ability, situation, money and all the ways we are pigeonholed. Some of the worst culprits to my great annoyance is school teachers!
At which point I realised that sensible debate and discussion on Twitter is absolutely pointless, at least with farmers.
