What you are willing to accept, on behalf of all of us in the country, to achieve your ideological goals is simply staggering. In spite of your simplistic arguments, there is no mandate for No Deal and the Commons fully realises this.

Here we go again with the 37% figure rubbish.
Also is the rubbish that the country will be poorer but we've been over this many times with this negative fantasy.
I will say it again and keep on saying it when you keep bringing up this nonsensical and misleading rubbish.
The people ineligible to vote, could not be arsed to vote, do not come in to final % calculations,
it wasn't 37% of the electorate anyway, as not every single person in the UK is eligible to vote and therefore not part of the Electorate.
I am not sorry to be pedantic but it was actually 72.2% of the Electorate who turned out to vote in 2016. That is the one of the biggest turn out to any Democratic event in political history.
Way more people voted in this referendum than the one in the 70's to join the Common Market, more people voted to leave in 2016, than they did Remain in 1975.
So it is more staggering that you're advocating the 2016 figures as invalid when the figures in 1975 were much less.
UK Population in 1975 was 56 Million, compared to 66 Million in 2016/2018.
17.3 Million said yes in 1975 Referendum, based on your erroneous calculations and thought process regarding the figures, only 31% of entire UK opted to stay in Commons Market in 1975, so based off your Modus Operandi and other Remainers demanding a second vote, the vote in 1975, should have been held again.
