I’m not confused. I completely understand the democratic aspect of holding another referendum because of turbulence in Parliament.

On the other hand, it is equally democratic to implement the 2016 Referendum result, which was Leave.

One could argue that is is more democratic to implement the 2016 public decision because why should a 2nd referendum be more valid than the first? I know the argument - people know more now than they did in 2016; but that is a Remainer’s argument and they lost the first referendum so they would, wouldn’t they.
