Do you want a second referendum on brexit?

People who voted leave might not want to leave anymore if they don't like the conditions in the deal.

I take your point but i'm not sure what that has to do with it being the epitome of undemocratic to tell people they will damn well do as they're told and never to voice an opposing view. the way half of the extremists on here speak you'd think we lived in Stalinist Russia and anyone who wished 'remain' is about to be deported to a Gulag..

The exact same is true of the Remain side, who find the very idea of the referendum to be anathema.

What it boils down to is that this has been probably the most divisive issue in British politics for 30 years or more. For every person that loves the EU, there is a person who hates it. For every argument that the EU is a good thing, there is one that it is bad. For every person who thinks that Remainers should be forced to comply, there is a remainer who thinks that there should effectively be a pro-EU coup.

No one knows the answer, and in all likelihood, no one ever will. No matter what happens, Remainers will go to their graves swearing that Britain was better off with the EU.

Napp Can we at least be in agreement that Theresa May is bad?

Then why are you Brexit lot so terrified of 'saboteurs' if we are most definitely 100% leaving?
You just made the perfect case for why a vote on our exit terms needs to be done...

With respect, people aren't stupid, you're sounding a bit like one of these condescending politicians who think they know better. Those arguments were discussed during the campaign, there's no evidence of a national swing to remain and we don't want to repeat what happened in Ireland and Denmark.

It still doesnt negate the fact that more people did not vote to leave the EU.

At any rate I maintain that, like most other countries, such a decision should only go ahead with a super-majority. A 4% difference is overly flimsy for such a profound change. Especially as both campaigns lied through their teeth.

Lol it's got nothing to do with stupidity. People aren't psychic and the leave they voted for may well be very different to the reality.

They voted to take back our sovereignty, control our own borders, end payments to the EU, control our own trading relationships, and regain control of our fishing waters.

A deal will only be bad if it delays or compromises on any of these, but long term we will have brexit. The deal is irrelevant and certainly won't make many people want to remain.

The deal is anything but irrelevant and may well compromise on aspects that pushes people to vote leave.

It literally can’t be changed though Article 50 has been triggered. No way back.

I do also think that they should have only done Brexit if it was at least 60-40 or something, but they did go through it, and it wouldn’t make sense to have a second referendum just because some people regret their decision now that they’ve seen the consequences.

Of course it can. Article 50 is just an arbitrary manmade law.

You can hope all you want but that won’t happen.

And I’m sorry but all laws are manmade - surely.

Why do you love the EU so much?

This is a serious question. There seem to be a lot of people who hold philosophically very strong views and have what appears to be a very deep attachment to what is effectively a supranational institution

People are forgetting that Brexit is happening because the majority of people wanted it to happen and voted accordingly... It’s like Trump’s victory - people should just accept that that’s what most people want
