They did.

A third of the electorate also exercised their democratic rights and
decided not to vote therefore leaving the decision making to all those
who could be bothered.

For all those complaining about the outcome of the referendum I wonder
how many actually put into power a MP who voted for the referendum bill
in Parliament. If they had voted for someone else the bill wouldn't have
been passed, the referendum wouldn't have taken place and we wouldn't be
discussing the outcome.


That does not compute. I voted for UKIP, but they returned no MPs

If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will
eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such
time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic
and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally
important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for
the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the
truth is the greatest enemy of the State.
