If Brexit happens, there will be a new relationship negotiated between the UK and the EU.
It will be a relationship that literally nobody will have voted for...
...At the expense of one that 16,141,241 people voted for.
That is objectively undemocratic.

It's like if 10 people are watching a film.
6 vote "Let's see something else" so everyone leaves that cinema room. And then because the blonde con-artist and the nicotine-soaked racist of the 6 shout the loudest, they all end up in a film that only 2 people like.

This is why "Leave means Leave" is such a pointless statement. Leave means change from one treaty to another treaty.
Democracy cannot function if we treat "Give us *something* else" as a binding democratic mandate.
