As for leaving EU. Many people had made their minds on leaving years ago. You go on about the lies, yes there were lies, on BOTH sides.

If people really really wanted another shot at a vote to stay or leave, then why didn't the Liberal Democrats win ? Over 80% of the votes went for parties that respected the Brexit result, I certainly would would not say people had their heads still switched off as you put it.
How weird it is that some of those who came out on the wrong side of both the referendum and the election seem to think that govt. policy ought to reflect their views. A good many remainers seem to think we still shouldn't leave the EU and Corbyn's cronies reckons he has a better mandate than May FGS! You couldn't make this up.

. That's half the population, if we've any chance we have to take everyone's views on board.
With a pragmatic Philip Hammond there is hope, with that daft increasingly demented PM there isn't.
Oh Gawd here we go again.

The majority who voted decided to leave not stay. Half the population certainly didn't vote to remain. We didn't vote to leave partially or take into account what the losers wanted and if the result had been the other way around I doubt very much that you'd be here banging on about taking the losing Brexit side's views into account when deciding how to proceed. No, it would have been full steam ahead for ever more Europe and ever closer union. Blatant hypocrisy as usual.
