The government have dilly and dallied for over a year now and we're no closer to any issues whatsoever being resolved. I got to admit I am not knowledgeable on politics and I decided not to vote in the referendum. I was hearing a lot of positives for leaving, and also many positives for staying in the EU, but I was also very confused about it all so I didn't vote.

If I could go back, I think I would vote stay now. I am just so disillusioned by it all now and just want us to get on with it. The amount of negativity from the media about Brexit also makes me concerned about it all. Does anybody else feel frustrated?

Not quite sure what you expected to be resolved as negotiations between the EU-UK won't end until March 29th 2019 unless there's an extension.
As is usually the case with EU negotiations I expect things to go up to the wire before an 11th hour agreement for access to the single market.
What's clear is that the UK will be not be members of the single market or customs union but that a transition period will happen after 2019 before things like freedom of movement etc are finally ended.
Contrary to anti-Brexit media reports it appears the civil servants in Whitehall have used their time since the Referendum very wisely and done huge amounts of preparation for the negotiations.
I'm afraid you're going to have to be patient as unravelling decades of EU-UK cooperation is no easy matter.
But Brexit really does mean Brexit.

No-one believes you. Clearly a Remoaner trying to stir the pot.

I'm not annoyed by Brexit, what I am annoyed by is sore losers who simply will not accept the result.

A drunken madman who stepped down as PM of Luxembourg because of a corruption scandal.

These are the kinds of people who routinely walk into cushy jobs within the EU.

British friend just sent me this link to a Telegraph article by Nigel Farage called The Great Brexit Betrayal Has Begun. You have to subscribe to read it but first few paragraphs give you the gist. Nigel also discusses this topic on
his radio show on LBC. You can call in.

Ignore your Leftist media (BBC, Guardian, Independent) in general. They are globalists and obey the dictates of their corporate masters much like mainstream US media does, which is nonstop antiTrump. You can start with Breitbart which has a small London section. In their Comments below each article ask someone to recommend good conservative TV, radio and news outlets. That's a start.

He's just a vile corrupt drunk and Anti-British to the core.

It's no wonder we are leaving.

Dreadful these days I'm afraid.
Most of their decent journalists have left or been sacked in a relentless cost-cutting and dumbing down exercise by the Barclay Brothers.
And it shows.
The Times is about the only decent national broadsheet left because The Guardian is even more unreadable than the Telegraph.
