Wrong wrong wrong - Labour have a policy of honouring the referendum - I repeat that this is why Labour support went to Lib Democrats.

You are still LYING - pack it in - I have made no false assumption - the data is there - the UK still wants to leave the EU - nothing you say changes this, so stop lying!!!

Yawn - clutching at straws with your you want a second referendum mantra, that leave would easily win again based on last nights results, that's why the country doesn't want one.

Remain voters do not have the advantage over leave voters, though, do they?

You don’t want one because you know you’d lose. That doesn’t equate to the country not wanting one.

The data is there you are either unable or unwilling to interpret it in a constructive or meaningful way. Which is fine. But it’s completely disingenuous to call another person a liar while misrepresenting Labour Party policy to suit your agenda.

Which leaves BRINO which neither side wants or a 2nd referendum

If the politicians won’t decide the people must a 2nd referendum containing two options

Leave immediately with no deal
Remain

It’s time to shit or get off the pot. The paralysis cannot continue
I am sorry (well actually I am not) but this is just not accurate - Remain did not win above leave - Remain has lost 2 elections and a referendum now, when will "some" of you Remainers wake up and accept the Democratic result of 2016, 2017 and now 2019?!?!?!?

There’s no way of applying that result to the future referendum. 34 million people voted in the last referendum, many of whom didn’t vote last Thursday but undoubtedly would next time.

The data is there, and it shows the leave won. You've lost again, jfman, and cannot bring yourself to admit it.

Keep chewing, mate, but eventually, you have to swallow.

So much speculation. So little in the way of facts.

Leave won.

It doesn’t show that at all, you are clearly aware of this hence remain unable to present a viable argument.

Remain only has to win once, all the leave victories so far haven’t done it any good.

I am not misrepresenting Labour Party Policy - they ran on honouring the result of the referendum and doing a deal with the tories - You are a liar.

I am very capable of reading and interpreting data, some one links to a piss poor image, who conveniently misses the Tories out of the % total when it campaigned on a leave ticket - gimme a break.

Remain did not win last night, this is a fact - Strong party for Remain, that's the Lib Dems lost out big time vs. Brexit Party. They are the victors and the country does not want to remain in the EU - also a fact*.

* Data based on 2016 Referendum result, 2017 Election Result and now 2019 EU Elections result.

Leave won.
Fact: 34 million people voted in the referendum
Fact: less voted last Thursday
Fact: there’s no way of knowing what those who didn’t would do next time out.

So where does the second referendum come into Labour Party policy, as agreed by the party conference? Why are you ignoring that inconvenient truth?

That's because you wrongly attribute Conservative and Labour voters as being something they are not. Why would remainers vote for a party standing on a Brexit manifesto instead of voting, say, Liberal Democrat at the EU elections?

Your interpretation makes no sense.

Mark my words. It’s the only way Labour and the Tories get to save face. I thought you’d welcome a further opportunity for this country to clearly demonstrate it wants to leave? After all we’ve done it so many times.

We are talking about the Labour manifesto, not the conference that was held after the election.

In any case, if you assume that all those who voted Labour voted remain, which they did not, leave still won. Do the math.
