A Momentary Loss Of Temper

"You simply lost. And you lost despite the incompetence of Boris Johnson, and the Leave campaign; you lost despite having a majority of MPs and political parties supporting your cause; you lost despite having the support of the BBC, the Times, the Guardian, the Independent and numerous other media organizations to run your own fear-mongering campaigns about "collapse" and "disaster" and smear campaigns about "racism"; you lost despite having the support of various EU leaders; you lost despite having the support of the U.S., Japanese and Chinese political leadership; you lost despite having the support of the world's largest investment banks like Goldman Sachs and J.P Morgan. Your side had almost unlimited money and support throughout all aspects of the world's political, media and financial establishment. And yet you still lost. 
And after all that, it still hasn't occured to you why."
