Most voted for it.

If you're in a vacuum chamber that's your problem.

~37% of the electorate voted for it, six years ago. If you think it has become more popular in the intervening time then it may be that you're in the echo chamber.

Of those who voted, a very small majority voted for it. By no means most British voters voted for it.

A reprise of the vote now would not secure the same outcome.

You'll be surprised to learn that the British people you talk to on the Internet are not sampled uniformly from the general population
