The political declarations made prior to the 2016 referendum stated that the Government would deliver on the result. I think - I hope - we are all politically mature enough to understand that delivering a simple majority on a binary question then leaves the government a great deal of latitude over exactly what constitutes ‘delivery’. I think we all understood that we were leaving the details to the government, and the demands for a second referendum simply don’t work as an appeal to a sort of Swiss political tradition of holding referendums on the minutiae of every question, no matter how earnestly they are dressed up as such. They are simply an attempt to win an argument already lost.
