In an historic referendum in June 2016, the people of the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union. We voted for Brexit. The Leavers have celebrated. The Remainers have had plenty of opportunity to complain about the result. Now, however, it's time we all pulled together to build a successful post-Brexit economy.
