That is a good question! There is a subtle difference between ‘accept’ and ‘agree’. I accept the result of the referendum, it is what it is. Have I had a damascene revelation where, based on what the referendum said, I agree that leaving is a good idea? No, nothing so far has changed my mind.
The big question now is what leaving actually entails, where will we be in 5-10 years time? What will our relationships be with our closest neighbours and the wider world?
My work and personal interests revolve around ease of trade and regulatory issues. The company I work for and our customers are global but the ease of intra EU trade has been a significant advantage in the past. How this will be handled going forward is a big question that still seems to be hanging.
