Is there?
Then where's the proper angry demos, where's the lobbying of m.ps, christ where's the fucking riots? A few thousand middle aged white people on a jolly march wearing blue with fucking stars painted on is not "a lot of public will"
I suspect reality is you have a bubble of like minded people around you that is giving you that impression. Must people either still back leave and those that voted remain just want to get on with it.
Here's some stats to pop that bubble.

Riots? What's the fucking matter with you? We're British. All the protests have been done in the correct way, including petitions, lobbying MPs, many marches and protests, however they are done peacefully because that's the right way to do things.
Stop talking utter bullshit on the numbers too - "Most" people didn't back leave - Ignoring the fact that we got nowhere near a 100% turnout the vote was basically 50-50.
No-one that voted remain has changed their mind, wheras 30% of all the people that voted leave admit that they were conned by a bus. Sums it all up nicely.

Okay dokey...
"Riots? What's the fucking matter with you? We're British. All the protests have been done in the correct way, including petitions, lobbying MPs, many marches and protests, however they are done peacefully because that's the right way to do things."
The British have a fine tradition of rioting, the fact that you don't know that is shameful.
Peaceful demos achieve fuck all.
"Stop talking utter bullshit on the numbers too - "Most" people didn't back leave - Ignoring the fact that we got nowhere near a 100% turnout the vote was basically 50-50."
The turnout was over 70% that's a lot for a poll and if you can't be bothered to vote on one of the largest post war issues this country has faced then you don't need to count their opinion now.
"No-one that voted remain has changed their mind, wheras 30% of all the people that voted leave admit that they were conned by a bus."
You just going to ignore the link I put up there then? 26% of people that supported remain now just want to get on with leaving.

You added the link later, after your initial post. Difficult for me to predict a ninja-edit. I like that it's a pro-government propaganda site, that unsurprisingly is backing the government line.
We've been around the houses on this one. I can show you polls and stats from places, you can do the same:

Just because you're uncivilised and see rioting as British, I don't. I see the right to peaceful protest and using the official methods available as British, although I'm increasingly aware that a good few Brits are godawful human beings. When was the last time a riot achieved anything? Miner Strikes? That thing where all the kids in London got new trainers?
In terms of your bubble accusation, I think that's fair. I would never even consider a friendship or even voluntary acquaintance with anyone that voted Brexit - I don't know anyone in my close circle that didn't vote for remain and everyone else I'm aware of that voted for leave (at work and friends of friends) are the ill-educated, provincial types at work, who I already knew were little englander racists. There's no grey area here for me -
Unlike Trump I don't think there are any "good people" on the pro Brexit side and evidence continually backs me up.

So you're still paying the poll tax and letting black shirts walk across London then?
Miners? Orgreave was instigated by the government.
Don't all succeed I grant you like the anti student fee's riots of 2010 and black people are still dying in custody despite many race riots but I would suggest more would be if it wasn't for various riots in the 80's and 90's.
But whens the last time a peaceful protest changed anything?
The largest one I can think of was the Stop the War one but Blair took not one notice and we're in the state we are now.

Never had an issue with the poll tax personally (oh no a small fixed fee for all people equally!) and there's bugger all difference between the blackshirts and the likes of the EDL or UKIP, except for their arguably natty dress style.
I DID AN EDIT TOO, JUST TO ADD THIS COMMENT HERE
