22 weeks apparently, according to a radio source.
Presumably the electoral commission would need time to ratify both the question and the options.0 -
I see we have another arrogant poster who seems to think the way forward is to insult people who don't agree with them.mortgageFTB wrote: »Hopefully weeks. Time to reverse the outcome from uneducated and gullable.0 -
Not good, but I do know people who admit they voted to stick two finger up to authority who will probably now take it a bit more seriously. I also know people who missed the voted to due holidays who might now make the effort to be more organised.

The timescale is a good question; also the money to be spent on campaigning (is the government going to pay to leaflet all households again?)
Hardcore remainers will vote the same. Hardcore leavers will vote the same (vindicated by the argument that nobody's allowed to leave).
What percentage of the population is persuadable to change is the most interesting unknown.
I predict a massive decline in general election turnouts after this, and a lurch to the right if immigration concerns are not acknowledged.They are an EYESORES!!!!0 -

There's not going to be a second referrendum.
Even if there was, there's no reason to think more people have changed their mind in one direction than another.Changing the world, one sarcastic comment at a time.0 -
If there were to be a second referendum, remain should not be an option. That question has already been asked and answered.0
