Quick anecdote: My wife recently befriended a co-worker who recently moved here from the UK. One day the topic of Brexit came up and we learned that she had voted Yes but was now regretting that decision after seeing the fallout. We asked why she voted Yes and the response was "I didn't understand what it meant so asked my parents what I should vote for."

That is why you don't leave complex political decision in the hand of a simplistic Yes/No plebiscite. Britain is such a mess right now and it is 100% self inflicted. I will be enjoying the popcorn.
