Clue - you don't.

I have wanted to leave the EU for over a decade, so don't come up with rubbish about Brexit being a scapegoat for crap government and or a protest vote - though I don't doubt there were protest votes, I actually believe people voted for Brexit en-masse, because, um, they actually do want to leave the EU.
No I don't, but then neither do you.

There were a whole load of reasons why people voted to leave. The insistence on this only being the simplistic options given on the ballot paper is and will continue to be the problem.

@Sephiroth Please explain why genuine PR would not change anything?

What was offered was little different to FPTP, so I m not surprised the majority voted to keep the known undemocratic system rather than switch to a similarly undemocratic electoral system.
