The democratic process which we live by was laid out at the time..The country voted,the article was triggered and that should be that..Unless you believe in the SNP policy of keep asking for a referendum until you get the result you personally want..!!

Especially now we're more educated on what leaving means.No you had your chance we voted to leave and leaving we will be .

The youth vote is an interesting point too regarding a 2nd referendum vote, as 1.5m more people have turned 18 since the last vote, and 1.3m have died!That fact alone would point to a remain victory, and maybe also the correct result - should the votes of the dead matter more than those who are alive and have to live with any consequences?

I thought democracy was when you voted on something and then carried out what was voted on by the winning majority. Or has that now changed?

Farage was keen on having a re-run if he lost.
I wonder how many of these people who want to remain would be so keen to have a re-run if the result would have gone the other way...Whatevever the grounds...
As regards point 1 of the above post BST, I don't think people who voted Leave were interested in or aware of any deal. They just wanted to leave.
RedJ, No doubt you do, but voting to leave based on immigration is not exactly wanting immigration to stop.

Perhaps no one imagined such a demanding divorce settlement! Is that a reason to stay with a partner you're not happy with?
