Agree or disagree with the following statement: Brexit proves that some issues should not be decided by referendum.


After the referendum in the UK which resulted in Britain leaving the EU, many people protested against this decision. It seemed like people did not really understood the consequences for them leaving the EU. Days after Brexit the most googled question in England the question of what the EU actually is. This shows clearly that people weren't aware of what in meant for them exiting the EU. 

Even though this referendum did make many people unhappy, it is what was voted for. The referendum was not really the problem, it was more about the fact that the people were ignorant and didn't really inform themselves before making the decision. 

Since Brexit effected the people living in the UK I think it was right to make this decision by a referendum. In general, I believe that referendums are the right way of making decision for a country, even though it can bring problems. One way would be to make sure that people are aware of the consequences, so they can make up there minds.
