That's my fear too. The 2016 referendum was the biggest ever electoral turnout in the UK, 33.5 million people turned out to vote - over 72% of the electorate. What exactly are they supposed to say to 52% of them who thought that they'd won the day after? "Sorry but folks who are smarter than you know better than you, don't worry though it's in your interests - trust us." I have no idea what's going to happen if that happens - maybe the people take to the streets, maybe they just don't bother voting again, whatever happens though it won't be good for my country.
