The issue is that all signs point to a major hit to the UK economy if they leave the EU. The politicians pushing for Brexit made promises that they couldn't keep with regards to the deal they would strike upon leaving. Now that the people are finding out what Brexit will actually mean, they aren't happy with it.
I'm not sure what you are referring to with TPO, but the US has never been involved in anything like the EU. If anything, the closest thing that we could compare it to in our country would be a state seceding.
