Interesting article, and indeed Brexit was touted by some as revenge on the political elite essentially for the lack of change. And yet for other leavers Brexit is driven by a regressive vision of Britain. A Britain of cheery white people, milkmen, bus conductors, Spitfires thrumming over white cliffs, pea-soupers, giving the Hun a bloody good thrashing, cricket etc etc.
Brexit allows for a new global Britain, but for others it is a rejection of globalisation.
It's taking back control, but handing it to the Etonite, Bullingdon, porcine-rapist, old money.
If the power structures in place are old and long founded, they are in an ideal position to ensure that the spoils of Brexit land right in their lap.
