The campaign in my local constituency was base upon honest discussion on people's doorsteps, for instance the preference of mutual benefit through cooperation, as opposed to isolationist self-interest.   Don't kid yourself that any future trade deals with economic powers outside EU will have the interests of workers at heart. What is worst is that we will no longer be paying our fair share towards the cohesion structural development of those less developed economies that did not have the advantage of profits from the slave trade to fast track their wealth. Because of this the EU has a moral duty to apply the most punitive tariffs possible in order to recoup the contribution, irrespective of how many people in the UK are reduced to abject poverty. it would be the democratic decision of over half a billion Europeans - so   you won - get over it.
