Tim stop using this '2/3 rds did not vote to leave' as if it has ANY
relevance', yes it is factually true but you seem to use it as meaning
2/3 rds had expressed a preference for staying.
Nearly a third could not be bothered to get of their a&*e and vote
(and lets be honest virtually everyone was catered for[polling booths
were open at 7 in the morning until 10 at night, there were postal votes
for anyone who couldn't make that 15 hour slot) either way.
Using this precise logic we could say 2/3 rds DID NOT vote
to remain.

Yes it was only a SLIGHT majority of those who could be bothered to
vote who voted leave but in a democracy (when no limits are set. As
they were in the Scottish independance referendum in '79) a slight
majority is still a majority (50%+1)
