This is because recently Brexit have been developing issues, and The Prime Minister is 'under fire'; due to wanting to go through a weak deal. Therefore, as a result, hatred from left and ring wing people has sparked; everyone is against Brexit, constantly commenting abusive and opinionated responses towards this article.
