57% of Britons said the decision to leave the European Union in 2016 was the wrong one, compared with 32% who thought it was correct.
More than half - 55% - said they would vote to remain in the EU, against 31% who said they would stay out, if the referendum were to be held again.
This is because that’s how democracy works. Most nations don’t force their citizens to vote. Leaders and decisions are decided by the balance of votes of those who actually bothered to vote. If the standard were 50% of more of the potential voting public, most governments would be in perpetual gridlock.
