You actually wouldn't, since it was an advisory referendum and not something that is binding. It's also accepted that if we re-polled today support wouldn't be nearly as high. There was a huge wave of regret as many of the people who voted yes symbolically had a unanimous "Oh fuck, I just wanted to send a message, I didn't actually want it to pass."
In a democracy what the majority decides then that decision needs to be executed. There was a vote, most UK citizens decided leave, that means their wishes should be honored, period. It's a scary world we're moving towards where people think that democracy should be tossed out (when it doesn't go our way) and instead we should just get do overs.
