The electorate did agree.

1/3rd of the electorate voted to Leave (let alone a supermajority),
2/3rds didn't.

What percentage of those who voted Leave (the only ones who are
actively trying to change the status quo), voted for us to leave
without a deal?

If they didn't consider that, what level of understanding did they
have / apply to their vote?

How many would have voted Leave if they were aware it was likely that
they wouldn't get any of the (bogus) things they were promised and
would be likely to end up worse off (even if only short term)?

There is a good chance that many of the things that the Leavers voted
on, also concerned the Remainers but the latter may have considered
that whilst they might need to be dealt with, they weren't
sufficiently down to our membership of the EU and that we should
really sort *ourselves* out first. [1]

Assuming the whole 'Leaving the EU' thing was even on their radar in
the first place.

[1] How come we seem able to supply all the 'extra' people in the UK
with food, cars, fuel, TV's and every other commodity that doesn't
seem to be in any level of shortage ... but we can't supply enough
homes, schools or hospitals?

How long have we had the freedom movement of people? How long have the
government and local authorities / developers had to build (and sell
for profit) houses?

We have always the option to manage migrant workers that don't find
work with in reasonable period but chose not to use it because it was
never a significant (when seen from the bigger picture) problem.
