The government has listened and is trying to get the best Brexit deal it can. It is the remainers who don't accept the referendum result who are not listening to the majority who voted.

Brexit was the result of the government not really listening to the electorate. People voted to leave as much in protest at the government as any other reason, despite the total leave assumption by those who took the voting options at face value. May compounded this with a bizarre set of manifesto pledges which ended up leaving them with no clear majority.
I see no further point in trying to change a closed mind regarding our undemocratic electoral system. Disillusionment with the governments we get lumped with will continue.
