Brexit wouldn't have happened with the LibDems in the government.

I am not convinced of that though, as a Lib-Dem voting Remoaner who proudly states "European" as nationality, I would like to believe it were true.

Clegg was the one calling for an in-out referendum with the hope of silencing the EU-haters. Would Cameron have held the 'stupidest referendum ever' if Clegg had not pushed for it, had instead gone along with just ignoring the populists and hard right agitators?

Clegg would have called that referendum if Lib-Dems had been the party in power.

Maybe there would have been a better case presented for remaining, they would almost certainly have stood by it being the 'advisory referendum' as actually intended, but we will never know how that would have panned-out.

The mistake IMO was allowing the referendum; Clegg and Lib-Dems were the ones wanting it.
