The leadership role you seek for the UK can now only be found in a determined effort to show the world that we know what we’re doing right now and are willing and able to make a success of it. Ongoing remainer messianic fantasies about the UK saving the EU only make that task harder.

You cannot make a success of such abject failure unless you are in the cult of the true believers. Mitigation & damage limitation are the only realistic hopes. Just "believing" ain't going to cut it.
You can forget the UK re-joining the EU or Single Market in the next decade+. Too many bridges have been burned and our international credibility is shot at the moment.
