What I find quite sinister is the post truth revisionist gas-lighting with their justification of their [failed] position:

"Do you want to be part of a single European state with rules made in Brussels"

"Well naturally, lurking behind a lot of Europhilia is a belief that we’re somehow not up to the task of governing ourselves and we need the EU to bypass our own second rate governments"

The mainstream movement who wished to remain part of the EU never advocated for these positions yet out they trot to prop up the justification of where we have ended up. Pure sophistry.
You are being the sophist here by not answering the question.

It's quite simple, really: Do you want to be governed by rules made in Brussels?

Also, on your 37% point, what would have been your attitude had the REMAIN vote won the day on 37% of the eligible population?
