I think we would be having this discussion
Early on in the campaign before it became clear how well Leave were doing it was hardly a secret than some Eurosceptics were looking to keep the 'loss' over 40% to order to maintain momentum for a future referendum. Remainers were discussing how big the win would need to be in order to 'kill the issue for a generation' and the question of a 2nd Scottish referendum was being discussed too. I think even some members on here were talking about what would be required in order to have another vote.
The vote always had the prospect of a second referendum in the background it was just people thought it was be if Remain won a narrow victory. If it was Remain 52% I am almost certain we would be discussing it.
Doesn't mean it's right. I would be arguing against it. I don't feel as strongly against a second referendum now obviously
although I still don't really support it.
