So what do you expect to happen in that situation?

I expect a rerun with a majority treshhold set, say, 60%
I know you won't believe me but even if I'd voted for brexit, it'd still want a rerun. The referendum result as it stands will never be accepted by the remainers.

So if the result will never be accepted by the losers, why are the winners getting all the bad press?

I know you're ignorant to this fact, but I'll say it anyway. There's many respected figures support Brexit, some people actually respect JRM, some people actually respect Trump. Just because you say they don't, doesn't make it true, because there is proof that it's not true.
