Brexiter
Voted to leave
A Brexiter is someone who supported or voted for Britain's exit from the European Union in the 2016 referendum.
The term describes advocates of Brexit, often contrasted with Remainers: Brexiters celebrated when the referendum results came in.
Sometimes spelled Brexiteer, which carries a slightly more enthusiastic or ideological connotation.
