The problem is that you believe the vote went the way it went because those who voted to leave were misinformed about the nature of the eu. From everything I've read here of late it would seem that so are those who voted to remain, both about the potentially great things the eu does for the poor of the U.K. and about what a non eu uk must look like (a lot of scare mongering that becomes truth only by deception and impotence). Politics has traditionally been a realm of deception and misinformation, but that cannot be applied to only one side. For me it's the whole sorry lot of them, and i suspect that was a motivating factor for the majority too; hence the strength of the argument that a group of people with one less group of corrupt politics is at ever so slight advantage to a group of people with more. If it were to succeed and we honoured the democratic vote, it would be one down and 3 to go (the us, the aristocracy and the U.K. Government). For anyone on the receiving end consistently of the mealy mouthed excuses that all of them offer for screwing the poor, it's not so much about good news but good riddance.
