As a few others may have remarked this: Brexit is a wonderful source of humor. Here's Tanya Gold in NYT:

"I see Brexit as a progressive disease, like alcoholism. What you think gives you hope — nostalgia or vodka, who cares? — is killing you. I wouldn’t have said this at any time since 1940 but it feels apt now. Pray for us."

We should not be cynical about democracy, especially when we mean by this word a state that despite itself tries to behave rather decently, but when it comes to the will of the people, one cannot helpt but chuckling these days.
