This post shows a complete lack of understanding on how democracy and the government work .The government are responsible for all the citizens of this country not just those who vote a certain way .I voted to leave and i also accept the government need to act in the interests of everyone not just the "winning side"

In truth the social chapter legislation and immigration are the main reasons why most voted to leave imo ,it's certainly the main reason why i voted to leave
I would not be happy about paying the EU money to keep access to the single market and i certainly don't think Brussels would go for it but any deal that allows us to trade with as many countries as possible on our terms cannot be turned down
