No wonder the public feel powerless.

The options are so obfuscated behind political complexity AND ever-changing that a simple voter (me) can't hope to keep up.

The moment you half-understand a scenario it is outdated, the days it takes to form a layperson's reasonable opinion are wasted grasping at now-irrelevant information.

It takes multiple hours per day to try and understand the details and their strategic importance.

I will forever remember this as a contradictory moment when the British public's political awareness was both at its greatest and weakest.

No positive outcomes look possible any more.
