This is an interesting proposal for a dissertation on the Brexit vote. What this proposal does well is that it describes the future research. Here are my suggestions for improvement. First, I would suggest to think more about the “why” of this study. You say there needs to be an understanding of Brexit but there are hundreds of studies, what does yours do that others do not? You need to work on your writing a bit, often I did not understand what you were trying to say or there were contradictions in the text. You need to select one of your three questions. Your three objectives areoo broad, asking too much of your thesis, pick one. I like your literature review, however, more could be read and you need to draw clearer conclusions. At the moment you derive hypotheses from the literature, but you are supposed to add something new to the existing accounts, thus developing hypotheses from them is not useful. Hypothesis testing is rare in qualitative research anyway, please read a book on case studies and model your thesis after this (e.g. Case Studies by Gerring).
