So many issues with this nonsense.
1) The inherent problem of democracy and its need for an informed electorate.
Most electorates a vastly uninformed and often downright stupid. The areas with highest percentages to 'Leave' were those with lower education, lower employment, and those who received the most fiscal aid from the EU. Wales, for example, has received billions upon billions of euros over this last decade and subsequently demanded they, 'Lose no money,' with no answer as to from where this money shall come.
3) The 'Remain' advocates weren't able to provide enough 'facts' to sway emotions of stupid people - not necessarily the fault of Remain or indeed facts - and this is why Labour leader Corbyn is under pressure for not properly spreading the 'message' to their voter base. The referendum was a victory of 'feelings' over 'facts' during which the electorate allowed tabloid media to make their decisions rather than fact-checking.
3) Friday, the day after the referendum vote Google's #1 UK Search Trend was 'What is the EU?' Seriously. 46.5 million people of a 65 million population were registered and 72% of those voted. That's a lot of people who didn't even bother to Google 'What is the EU?' the day BEFORE they vote in a referendum.
4) The FTSE Index implodes - 1.5tn sterling to date - and brings down with it other global markets. Europe is 'fucking pissed' with British stupidity and holds opinion, 'You chose to leave now leave and do it quickly.' The UK panics and many confessed 'Leave' voters claim to regret their opinion, 'Oh, I didn't think it would pass' or ' I didn't know it would change anything' leading people to backtrack and pussy out from their own retarded decisions. Oh, I took a shit on my bed and didn't think it would make a mess - NOBODY TOLD ME IT WOULD MAKE A MESS!
5) David Cameron Lizard King Cyborg steps down - reportedly overhead to have said, 'Why should I do the hard stuff? I'm off.' - and leaves a poisoned chalice for Boris Johnson or another Pro-Brexit politician who takes over to step up and activate the dreaded Article 50 to begin the 2 year divorce process from the EU. If the Brexiters step down and pussy out their political careers are finished. If they step up and don't activate Article 50 they're finished. If they do, they're fucked - which leads to point 6.
6) Activation of Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty would dissolve the U.K. - Scotland has already proposed separation to avoid departure from the EU 'against their will.' Nationalist rumblings have begun in Northern Ireland to push for separation from the U.K. and inevitably towards a 'United' Ireland or maybe even a coalition between Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Republic of Ireland for each to keep sovereignty but maintain some economic coherence with each other and remain in the EU.
The lesson to be learned could be summed up in one Winston Churchill quotation:
'The best argument against democracy is a five minute conversation with the average voter.'
Another question must be posed: should votes be weighted? Most of the 'Leave' voters were old people who must live with their decisive fuck-wittery for another 5 or 10 years; many 'Remain' voters must live with this for another 30 or 40 or 50 years.
