People still voted Leave because they saw those risks as preferable to continued membership of the EU. They voted Leave in spite of the possible negative consequences, not in ignorance of them.
Eggsacterly.

But Labour - for political reasons - and Remainers who can't accept that they lost still drag this nonsense up. But the ones who really irritate me are those that voted Leave and who now want to moan about the potential outcome.

I reserve a special type of contempt for them.
