Like you disregarded my post directly above yours.

There's nothing to say we can't have multiple referendums. And if you look at, for example, Ireland. That's exactly what happened.

Oh and if you think the £ falling is a joke, well...

This is not how a democracy works. You can't just make another referendum simply because you didn't get your way. Pretty childish. We have to stand together and make this work.

I read that. I find that quite funny how if people have an opinion: stay or leave; why after voting multiple times would that change a person's opinion. If I were to vote tomorrow as I did on the 23rd, I'd vote the same thing. What difference would it make voting again?

Because you would be voting with improved knowledge about the choice you are being asked to make, and possibly the terms of staying in/out the EU itself will have evolved.

There's not going to be a 2nd Ref anytime soon, that's clear.

But there could well be one in Scotland, and if so and they choose independence, AND the English/Welsh economy isn't doing quite so well, and immigration is still a "problem" and .... etc etc. Then maybe asking the question again in a year or 2 will yield a different answer.

This particular petition is a complete red herring. It's badly worded. It's after the fact. And it won't change anything. But it's a bit of fun for Remainers and re-thinking Leavers to sign it.

A 2nd referendum certainly isn't.

Immaturity of some Bremainers at its finest. Leave won fairly and they cant just keep demanding referendums until they get the result they want.

How much more "knowledge" would i be able to have - more propaganda from both sides of the argument? i don't see that as knowledge.
Immigration will always be a problem - people don't just come from the EU, but also from asia, the middle east too.

Indeed to paragraph 2.

And read the rest of my post - knowledge was just one aspect.

Very true - I don't see the need to complain about a decision which has been fairly been made with the whole of the UK. Nor request that that decision be proposed again in order for the "expected result". I even thought the UK would stay, but hey - leave majority won. GG lol.

Twitter has gone nuts with Brexit. The number of tweets that have called Brexiters racist is unbelievable.

Which contract pal?

The contract they sign its a legal binding document
If Remain won the referendum (with the same results, 58-42) and someone made a petition about how unfair it was, I bet you that will be sorted in an hour and people would just tell them to shut up and live with it because Leavers are racists and don't deserve to vote.

I'm sorry, the last time I heard the UK democratically made the decision to Leave the EU fair and square, it is therefore absurd that these ignorant, sore-loser Remainers can't even accept the fact that they have lost. It's over. If we have another referendum on this again it will only make our nation look out of control and heading towards third-world democracy.

Wot?

No legally binding contract has been signed by anyone, and the referendum is only advisory. Strictly speaking it has no legal standing at all.
