I suspect that the majority of voters never wanted to leave in the first place. Results-wise, there was like 1.2% in it. And the leave voters were more likely to actually turn up. The problem is that too many "remainers" didn't actually vote.

People who don't go to elections (laziness, confidence to win anyway, boycott) accept the election's outcome.

True, but we are speaking about what people want, not how they voted.
