Personally I 100% agree with you! Although I don't think either faction deserves to be proud of its management of the run up to the referendum. It's interesting that buried in the now usual daily news about Brexit and Trump yesterday were the latest IPCC findings, where they made the point that there is a far more important issue which will only be solved by international co-operation. Hence, and for many other reasons, I would hope that the scientific and engineering communities are pushing to ensure that the UK doesn't end up as isolationist in their fields, whatever the other local political decisions are. I know that the universities are pressing government very hard to ensure that whatever decisions and agreements are reached do not affect international research - although I find it sad that they have to justify this by quoting the "value to the UK economy" as the main reason.
Oh dear, I'd better go out in the sunshine for a bit to cheer myself up!
