OK, so the weather was nicer in the summer, when 700,000 people turned up to the anti-brexit march, but surely the future of the country is a little more important than the weather?
700,000 or 30,000 is that all that could be mustered up - come back when you can beat 17.4 Million and stop bloody saying typical, my views are MY own, if you do not like that - tough luck.

Denying them that choice because it may go against what you want is anti-democratic.
No the losers vote is just that, you want to overturn the democratic result because you, the "spoilt brat" inside you and a large number of Remainers, did not like the result so you want another.

We had a choice and people voted to leave the EU.

And the naivety if you think accurate information will be passed around in more divisive campaigns it will just be a re-run of the lies from both sides.

We had a referendum - the UK voted to leave the EU and leave we must.
