"No one in the country is going to thank us or think more of us if we behave churlishly in defeat and frankly the challenge of making Brexit work is sufficiently important for our nation, that we cannot afford to be absent from it.

It's good to see that and hopefully a lot more vocal leave supporters follow suit.

Whatever your view on Brexit, surely it's better for everybody who decides to stay in the UK that Brexit proves to be a success.
