It has been made public that civil servants were actually crying when they heard the Brexit result, which tells you an awful lot about these people whose job it is to work for the country and it's democracy.
It tells you that they knew it was going to be a professional, personal, and national disaster. And because they knew how much work it would be, and little planning had actually been done.

Do you have any examples of these "obstacles" placed by "Remainers". Not quite sure what you mean, especially as (post May), the Leavers have been in charge. Oven Ready Brexit! Ahem.

If the result had gone 48-52 the other way, there's not a chance that the Leave camp would have said "oh, well, that's democracy, we're now going to put all our energies into making remaining in the EU work better. We'll never mention it again, and we certainly won't be difficult or awkward."

When Farridge thought he'd lose, he was already talking up fighting on and the next campaign and muttering darkly about the deep state and votes marked in pencil being erased and how everyone should vote with a Biro, not a pencil.
