I don't think
Or don't know.
Far-reaching constitutional change should not be based on supposition, assumption, and straw polls (including the referendum itself).
It demands thorough, nonpartisan investigation, analysis and debate.
Leave or Remain - This point stands independently of any view of the UK's membership of the EU.

I don't think the leave vote represented a desire to stay in the EU but reform it though. If remain had won 52:48 but politicians had decided that it was best for us to leave as we couldn't get the deal we wanted I doubt people would have been of the view that that was reasonable.
If you look at the post brexit vote opinion polls there doesn't seem to be a great element of buyers' remorse, people still want to leave the EU even though it's evident that no-one has a clue what the plan is.
