...or we have to listen to some people whine?
Few? 51% is a few? I mean, I also think Brexit was a monumentally stupid decision, but 51% of people wanted it, no?
Even assuming that everyone who didn't vote would have voted for remain, given the voter turnout of 71% (which is already very high for any election, typical turnout is around 57%), 35% of people said yes. That's not a few, that a big chunk.
And in any case, the point of my post was the "suffering", not the "few".
The best you can say about the Brexit vote is that 51% wanted something other than the status quo.
It was recently the 10-year anniversary of the Brexit vote. Not a single firework.
