The outcome of the referendum was quite clear, and the house acted in accordance with it by invoking article 50.
What then became clear was that mps and negotiators send to brussels had believed all the promisses made by the leave-side. They really thought they could sherry-pick the deal, have cake and eat it. Assuming leavers didn't give blatant lies to the public, it shows what fantasies they harboured about their supremacy within a union of 28 sovereign countries. The remnants of your colonial past caught up with you.
Now, three yars on, you can either persist in this attitude and be kicked out of a union that has been beneficial to you, or you can adopt to modern times and the place the UK really has in the world order.
