Not on the basis of people dying off or because certain people don't like the result.

Remainers will cling to any argument, however absurd, to reverse the result of the referendum.

It’s not absurd. It’s using facts and logic to debunk the “will of the people” nonsense. I don’t think it’s enough in itself to justify a second referendum but it’s interesting and as an added bonus winds up the gammonati.

It dubunks nothing and is a ridiculous argument.

The whole situation is far too important for immature people like you to deal with, so you just resort to childish wind ups.

I'm sure you think that you're hilarious. Bless.

Aren't General Elections now held at least after 5 years. They should revoke Article 50 now, let it all rest a while, then have another vote 5 years on from the last one in June 2021. If anyone really wants to bother with all this again. Certainly if they do, all 57 different varieties of Brexit need specifying next time.

It’s far too important for ridiculous old baby boomer gammon who can’t handle the fact not everyone is as bitter and twisted as them to merit a say, Col, but I read your posts anyway.

And simply ignore the fact that the ruling elite that you hold in such high regard stood on manifestos of leaving, voted by a huge majority to trigger article fifty and told the population that the referendum was a once in a lifetime vote and that the result would be implemented.

Democracy eh?
It's ****ed!

Nothing bitter and twisted about my reasons for voting leave.
Everyone merrited a say and had their opportunity in the referendum.

You're so immature that you describe everyone who voted leave in derogatory terms.

No, I don’t. I describe you in derogatory terms, which is fair because you’re ridiculous.

As it is all the fault of the Remainers, can a Brexiteer explain to me what it is they actually want given that they have voted against May's deal to deliver Brexit three times now?

! Just look at the difference between the sides on Brexit.
On the one hand we have the old, future stealing Gammon.
On the other, the young, diverse, future of the UK.
Supporting Brexit.
Oh wait..

No one is arguing about the result but given the details of Brexit today it has to be said that the final decision must be taken by the public

Brexiteers I believe are the ones worried about a new vote if it happens and so they should be

It far from being childish imo to make sure that if a new vote came tomorrow the future of the country must be decided by the people

The government can’t do it they have been proven to be useless

Remember we didn’t leave in 2016 it’s 2019 and a clean decision must be had ... it’s too important

Why can’t people see that ?

Say in advance if 17m people vote leave with a no deal tomorrow then fair enough who can argue with that ? No one imo

The truth is imo we may see a 60/40 to remain and everyone will need to live with that if that happens ... can’t see many of the 16m or ratio of changing their minds hence why I believe there is real fear in the mind of Brexiteer ... that is stubborn and could be called childish imo

FFS its more than not liking the result and you know it. If it had been handled and implemented better by the Gov it might not be such an issue but the illegalities behind the leave campaign and the pantomime villains at the forefront of it are hard to ignore and make it very difficult to respect. Whether you will admit it or not people were ill-informed, misinformed or willfully ignorant back in June 2016 and we know a damn sight more now. Also the rift it's caused in society and the galvanising of the far right thugs all point to brexit being a really bad idea.
