The economy is not everything. I know most people including leaders these days think all political decisions should be made keeping the economy in mind, and that's the most important thing. But I don't think this to be the case. Sovereignty and the right for people to make the rules that govern them are just as important if not more important than the economy.

Not having an income isn't very freeing.
Giving people freedom of self determination was in. At least for oppressed people.

And it seems like UK people exercised that freedom.
