They say they regained control of their country—a core argument of the Leave campaign. Yet there's an acknowledgement here: while the UK won the freedom to chart its own course, it may have squandered the opportunities that freedom created. These voters stand by their choice even as economic and political headwinds have reshaped the post-Brexit landscape. Ten years on, the UK's split over Europe endures, but those who cast the decisive ballots see no reason to second-guess themselves.
