Default Interesting Brexit Article

I thought this was an interesting, thoughtful read so sharing it for anyone else inclined to read or debate.

Quote:
What the British people want, I believe, is a democracy honest enough to reveal the trade-offs and the complexities of contemporary politics, responsive enough to reflect nuanced opinions, and convincing enough that people believe they are genuinely connected to the decisions that affect their lives.

When we cut our ties with EU power, we must also reform Britain's archaic power structures.

That is surely what Brexit must mean.
It's a good and well-meaning article but this, in bold, is not what is going to happen. They will be reinforced without restriction.
