Weren't the opinion polls prior to the referendum mainly showing remain as more popular than leave?
For some time, yes, but it was showing it as being extremely close either way. The polls were really not far off at all, people just didn't take them seriously it seems.
I'm even aware of people who have moved from remain to leave as they've not been happy with the EU's attitude during the process
Now that really is a special type of 'head up their own ass' though.

Outside of the echo chambers of LFGSS and the like there is still plenty of appetite for leave, and still a surprisingly large appetite for a no-deal. I'm even aware of people who have moved from remain to leave as they've not been happy with the EU's attitude during the process (refusing any future trade talks for instance).
I wouldn't be overly surprised if May's deal did somehow get through at the last minute, just a gut feeling.
