Moderate hero time. Most of the voters, both for Bremain and for Brexit, probably had little idea about how the EU works. I'd say most of the voters in remaining EU countries doesn't know much either.

Let's just face it, uninformed voters are a fact.

You're correct, of course even as a EU supporter I have to admit that EU doesn't make it easier for itself, of course the fact that the description of EU in English seem much more confusing than in for example Danish (where Tusk is EU pręsident (president) and Juncker is EU formand (foreman) in daily talk) doesn't help either.

Good point. I really wouldn't mind combining the two offices, as long as it wouldn't be filled by a smoke-filled room full of individual country leaders.
