"Very surprised by the outcome, someone screwed up big time, that wasn't supposed to happen. Heads have and will role."
No such thing as 'not supposed to happen' MajorD, becaue no one has the power to control such events. Propaganda does sway a few but in a true democracy fewer buy into it. Internet is a defence against propagandists imo and that is why some extreme dictatorships try to limit access to it.

As for actual vote in UK, older folks went to vote who are old fashioned and pro old Britain. There is also a reaction to immigrants against whom older folks are more against. Younger generation is less prone to go out to vote, more tolerant were largly for staying in.

I have been in central Europe for past month and saw the Brexit support (hence no surprise to me, just disappointment) and saw the sentimental swing to stay for a while after the killing of British MP Jo Cox who was for staying in. But two days before the voting with sentiment evaporating, polls showed a return to exit.

I regard the Brexit vote to be largely a knee jerk reaction to loss of old imperial mentality and influx of foreigners.
Hence Britain for British and down with EU were the common comments from people on the street. These were on occasion interspersed with for staying from people who were concerned about economy and trade, but these were in the minority.

It can take as much as two years for the completion of the UK and EU divorce. Ed.
