We Britons who remain Remainers 28 months after the referendum are used to being called unpatriotic, undemocratic, boring, out-of-touch, elitist bad losers. The home secretary Sajid Javid labels us “deeply unhelpful”. We are urged to get behind the project and are blamed (along with the “EUSSR”, Ireland and supposed master-puppeteer George Soros) for Brexit’s difficulties. When I criticised Brexit in a talk to Conservatives recently, very polite Leavers exhorted me afterwards: “Be positive! If we believe, we can do it.”
我们这些在英国举行退欧公投的28个月后仍然坚持留欧的英国人，往往被称为不爱国、不民主、无聊、不接地气、输不起的精英主义者。内政大臣赛义德•贾维德(Sajid Javid)给我们贴上“深度没有帮助”的标签。我们被敦促支持退欧，并被指责造成了退欧的困难，与“欧联”（EUSSR，讽刺欧盟类似于苏联——译者注）、爱尔兰、以及所谓的木偶操纵大师乔治•索罗斯(George Soros)一同沦为罪魁祸首。我最近在向保守党人发表讲话时批评了退欧，彬彬有礼的退欧派后来告诫我：“积极点！如果我们坚定信念，我们就能做到。”
