This is an important film. It contains all the reasons for abandoning Brexit. Told with clarity and passion by individuals in all the devastated areas of Britain, it should be seen on television. As it is so comprehensive, it is possibly too long, but it is, nonetheless, full of wonderful material for any shorter docs or news magazine programmes to use - over and again. It should be made available to them and to all viewers, especially when the next referendum comes up.
Whether you voted Remain on 23 June 2016, Leave and now have buyers remorse, or are just dismayed and concerned by the insane course the UK seems to have taken over the last two years and want it to step back from an imminent cliff edge... SEE THIS FILM! An informative, respectful portrayal of a tenacious group of people who became activists after th EU referendum, and refuse to be intimidated by the establishment media or online trolls. Many new and cogent arguments can be found in this film, which neither dumbs the issue down nor is bogged in the dry technical detail (customs etc). Timely and mandatory viewing, which has come along not a moment too soon.
We are truly a disunited kingdom now, labelled as either leaver or remainer and entrenched in our view of Brexit. It won't end well - no-one satisfied, the right wing press blaming the EU for the many problems ahead and politicians driven to the extremes. This film does an excellent job of reminding us how we got there - perhaps there will be a sequel? "48% - you were right all along"?
Brexit has divided the UK with the 48% (who voted) Remain being told to keep quiet and follow "the will of the people". Thanks David for producing a documentary that reflects the views of many UK and expat citizens. Please can we have this available (with subtitles) for the rest of the EU?
Postcards from the 48% is a shocking indictment of how democracy can be undermined by those seeking to destroy democracy for their own personal gain by lies, fraud and interference. This film should be mandatory viewing by all our fellow EU citizens to show them that a sizeable proportion of the population, predominantly the young and better educated, did not want to leave the EU and still do not want to leave the EU. This number is growing larger day by day, and is now the majority according to the most recent, reliable polls. But both the U.K. government and the official Opposition Party, are ignoring us. They refuse to reconsider and are denying us a second vote now that the facts are coming to light. This is NOT democracy
