To do so would be to abdicate my own moral, ethical and intellectual principles of free thought and self governance.

The remainers are doing the same thing, just because they didn't get their own way..... so if we want to live in a democratic country, where the majority vote wins, we have to accept that we can't all have our own way!
If we continue with theses childish attitudes, where everybody expects to get their own way, we will end up with civil war. I wouldn't then be surprised if the winners didn't choose a dictator as a leader, because they liked his current ideas. We all know how the rest of the world react to dictators, apart from the countries that have one.... because they have to do as they are told!

If I, like JRM, had a big business I'd certainly take my operations abroad, quite simply because this country has had it.
Why? Several reasons.
Primarily, we don't have a competent government. They are only in power because we have a very dangerous opposition which no-one in their right minds would vote for.
Crime is growing out of hand, the reasons being a lack of police and pointless judiciary. The latest report of our minister for prisons is for all sentences of 6 months or less in prison to be overturned and those criminals not to be sent to prison.
Our transport infrastructure is becoming hopeless. Our businessmen involved cannot be trusted and, once again, our unions are growing in strength and striking regularly.
Another union in Walsall has refused to empty bins for the past seven weeks and the place is an absolute tip.
I could go on and list ever more problems, but I'm so fed up with it that I just think "why bother".
Yes, I'd be off abroad in the wink of an eye. This country's had it.

So, because you don't like being told what to do you are willing to put the economy of the whole nation at risk.
That is unforgivable.
You don't even understand that you DO have input in to who holds office in a democratic way.
Your free thought is vitally important but does not overrule the well being of all.
