You don't say - I am well aware of that - but it does not negate my point at all.

The difference in the deep reds says it all - people have not changed their minds. It's just a pathetic fallacy by Remainers in Parliament trying to get another divisive Referendum.
Unless the sample size is about 34 million it’s impossible to use those graphs to derive anything meaningful.

It wasn’t my intention to accuse anyone of lying.

It’s just an old saying about how statistics can sometimes be used to give a meaning that they actually don’t if you dig deeper. No offence intended.

Re: Brexit

They do have meaning - it shows people have not changed their minds on leaving the EU.

I'll remember that next time you quote a Data Poll result on this subject matter.

Remember, these are Remainers who are keen to thwart Brexit. They are part of the anti-democratic tendency that wishes to take advantage of the parliamentary deadlock.

We had a sample size of about 34 million which gave a meaningful leave result.
We called it a referendum.

They are also Ministers, part of the Government. Will they be sacked ? If not then it implies its the Govt's thoughts too.

What a contrivance. A second referendum just to measure any change of opinion. Jeez.

Just because you didn't take any notice of the campaigns doesn't mean others did. You speak for yourself and yourself alone. If others want second vote based on what we know now, that's a fair opinion to have.

On that footing - I guess then that this is just your opinion then.

Again then what the public say and how they're react if things go wrong might be very different. It's all very well for people to say 'we know the consequences, we just want OUT' but as soon as their personal situation is impacted a lot will blame the politicians.

Of course it is. The problem comes when you believe democracy means lies.

Amber Rudd in particular, throughout the last 2 years has been seditious in relation to the Referendum result, Along with Hammond.

Re: Brexit

Rudd is the most interesting one. She’s only returned and is going against the Party line.
