I'm getting a bit tired of this argument. It was a MINORITY of those who
bothered to vote who voted remain. So what? Given how easy it was to vote
then its pretty clear people who didn't bothered didn't give a damn one way
or the other so their opinions - if they even have one - are irrelevant.

The result of the vote is unavoidable, I agree, but it's still not
clear what people wanted: single market or not would have been the
obvious 'leave' options.

The process leading up to the vote was a farce with gross exaggeration
on one side and lies on the other.

less than 50% of the population, who in any case weren't asked which
aspect of leaving the EU was most important to them, nor were they
given any options. Cameron's gross negligence.

What does the aspect matter, its in or out, there's no halfway house as
brussels has made clear. And I know its trendy for remoaners to blame cameron
but I'd like to shake his hand. Its about the only useful thing he did during
his whole term.

I blame him because I think the referendum was staged simply to
resolve an internal party matter and it didn't go his way.
