The vote was also predicted to stop investment in the country, yet there has been significant investment despite those predictions. Exports and tourism, by the way, are massively up. Having a weak pound is not the worst thing in the world.
No-one knows how the country will react to Brexit. Whether we're a little richer or a little poorer doesn't matter to me. It's about sovereignty and democracy, and, most importantly, not being part of a European Union which is probably within two decades of the most complete and extraordinarily devastating collapse.
