Yep, pretty much nails it.
Here’s what people made of it on Twitter. We do this partly to reassure you that yes, it did actually happen.
So when brexiters say that everyone fully understood exactly what they were voting for…

“what do you think about brexit?”
“what’s that?”
“it’s us leaving the EU. we won’t be part of europe anymore”
“does that mean we won’t have any trees?”
Hayley is clearly the brains of the group #LoveIsland

For the record, I think Love Island is bloody brilliant and sensational television. Yes the Islanders are mugs, but they are my mugs

They aren’t exactly a great advert for an education system that’s meant to leave nobody behind are they

Behold – the result of Blair’s ‘Education Education Education’ election promise.
And the generation with the most generously funded education ever in the UK.

As most of them are 22, they received their senior education in the the Tory or Tory and Lib Dem era!

A lot of people mocking Love Island girls for not understanding Brexit well most of our politicians don’t either.
Those young women are just kids. They rely on their wise elders not to fuck up their country until they get to grips with it. They have been let down.— Julie Owen Moylan (@JulieOwenMoylan) June 9, 2018
What do you think of Brexit?
Hayley: I don’t know what this is
Hayley: does that mean they’ll cut down trees

Except this person begged to differ.
Except for the daft Liverpudlian going on about trees (♀️) the rest of them seem pretty clued up tbh.

Well, it will affect cheese imports and going on holidays, so they are certainly more clued up than the government who keep blithely stating it’s all going to be fine..

#LoveIsland has eloquently discussed the key consequences of Brexit:
▪️Food Security
▪️The exchange rate
▪️Loss of Free Movement for British citizens
▪️Loss of Trade
▪️Lack of funding for welfare
