Population of the UK = 65.1m
Allowed to vote = 46.5m = 71%
Remain = 16.1m = 25%
Leave = 17.4m = 27%
Did not vote = 13.0m = 20%
Not allowed to vote = 17.6m = 27%
"The will of the people" = 27% apparently. Of course the 27% of UK residents not allowed to vote (e.g., children and foreigners) presumably are not "people" or possibly have no will. Strange how many of those "non-people" are expected to pay taxes and will be affected by Brexit as much as "the people".
