    And who is an expert on Brexit? - exactly nobody.
    People have varying degrees of knowledge and understanding on both sides of the argument. I know a number of people who voted to remain and had no clear concept of why. But if Remain had won I would have accepted the decision. That's democracy, get over it. It may have its weaknesses but the alternative is far worse.
