Your assuming a lot, that those who voted for Johnson "wanted Brexit done", many did but others were somehow convinced Corbyn was a communist. Given that no poll has indicated that more than 50% wanted Brexit it wouldn't take many to swap sides or for others to change their vote to swing matters.
You view that Labour was complicit in how it turned out is interesting, yes Corbyn was lukewarm about the EU, always has been, but they could hardly have campaigned on a remain policy at the last election, so the idea of agreeing a deal and then having a referendum on that deal was probably the best option. Regrettably a right wing media character assassination of Corbyn, certainly influenced the vote and yet he was more credible and more trustworthy than Johnson has ever been.
Please do remember that the Tories got in on less than 43% of the vote, which is not 50% of the electorate.
Labour seems determined at the moment to ignore Brexit, I can't really see how Starmer can continue with this policy, Brexit and its ramifications will be more and more apparent as we go on and he will have to address it somehow.
Whilst I don't envisage we will be looking to rejoin the EU anytime soon, economic reality may just mean that a return to membership of the single market and customs union will be a necessity. The difficulties over the arrangements for Northern Ireland and the extra costs of doing trade with the EU are already apparent and whilst its clear that the current numpties in government signed up to a rather bad deal and then just kind of hoped it would sort itself out, it won't.
Its all very well casting the EU as the villains, but some Brexit supporters, who have never been big on facts and reality from the start, will eventually understand that as a "third" country in the EU's eyes, everything that is happening was predicted and lots of companies and people will suffer economically from this and then questions will be asked.
I like the way you put my facts in parenthesis, if you think they aren't facts, then please do point out why and as for it being one sided, its up to others to come up with some Brexit plus points, wonder why they don't?

Just to offer an olive branch to EU representatives, I was actually moved to feel sorry to Ursula Van Der Luyen over the Sofagate affair. I hope we all agree that, whatever the circumstances, be they originated by EU incompetence or turkey troublemaking, Charles Michel deserves a slap.
I thought it was hilarious. Of course Erdogan of course, is not exactly accomodating with women really
