Britain will be the winner and EU will disintegrate!! As it should. Nations want their own sovereignty back again! If we're not careful we'll heading in the same direction, a nation full of other nations! That's not sovereignty!!!!
Interesting what your idea of sovereignty is and why you think nation have lost theirs.

All countries in the EU still have their sovereignty, being in the EU just means they operate as a common market so it's much easier to trade with each other and cross borders

Sovereignty is more than anything else a matter of legitimacy [...that] requires reciprocal recognition. Sovereignty is a hypothetical trade, in which two potentially conflicting sides, respecting de facto realities of power, exchange such recognitions as their least costly strategy.

When some central, unelected govt is dictating to countries that they must accept migrants from Africa/middle east and whatever else they dictate, they are no longer sovereign countries. They are also no longer democratic, which is evidenced by the way the voting public are being treated after giving their verdict on Brexit
