The referendum was a binary vote - one or the other.
One choice won by over a million votes - That's a massive majority of people.
I have no qualms of accepting Remainers say on the leave process but it's been more than this - it's been utter bullshit about trying to keep us tied to the EU, then rubbish about not many people voting in one of the largest Democratic processes of modern times. Rubbish that people didn't know what they were voting for.
Now Remainers want a second vote to get their own way - not a chance - we had a vote, one is enough. We do not keep having the same vote over and over again. Or we might as well just piss over democracy that people fought and died for.
I voted to leave the EU in it's entirety, that was what was on the ballot paper - it's manifestly absurd to suggest no-one knew what exactly they were voting for when that action was exactly on the ballot paper - it did not say "Partially leave the EU".
Lastly - what the hell is a "hard leaver" ? - there is no such thing.
A person who voted to leave the EU is not a hard leaver - they are a leaver.
