It’s what the majority of the people who chose to vote on a given day want. By definition that’s how a referendum is won and lost - I wholeheartedly agree with you on that point. That on it’s own doesn’t delegitimise the result.
Indeed l have not stated anywhere that the result should be changed but that does not mean one should not hold a view on the utterly shambolic chaos since we had the referendum over two years ago.
