Wrong. The truth of the matter is that most leavers didn't actually analyse the method of leaving. They just wanted to leave, forging a trade deal with the EU and other countries. Simple as that.
It was always for the politicians to actually make that happen.
We do not need yet another referendum at all. Let's just get on with implementing the decision of the majority of the electorate who could be arsed to vote.

So here you have an unelected EU Commissioner ordering a democratically elected Government of a sovereign nation to redo their budget.
This is why many people voted Brexit.
This is the EU Commission exerting direct authority over a nations government.
I don’t have any sympathy for the Italians. They know the rules, but if they had still had their own currency and control of their own affairs there are lots of things they could have done, same with the Greeks.
How long before an Italian referendum?

Wasn't long ago leavers were predicting Portugal, Spain and the Netherlands would all leave so I guess it's time to roll out another suggestion.
As a member of the Eurozone, Italy has signed up to certain commitments and is being warned that it is in danger of breaching them. I see nothing undemocratic in that.
Like you, I don't have too much sympathy for the country. In or out of the Eurozone, I think its electoral system discourages growth. If it doesn't want to follow the rules of the Eurozone then it should leave the Eurozone.
Quote why many people voted Brexit for rules that don't affect the UK suggests that some leavers didn't know what they were voting for. That would be incorrect as they all knew what they were voting for.

The Empire has gone old chap, and so has Hitler thankfully. Together we really are stronger, alone we will be weaker without a doubt. However we'll always find someone else to blame , while producing nothing, not even Dyson products....
