If there is a second referendum ...

Obviously racist, ignorant chavs were part of the electrote.

Otherwise, our country wouldn't be potentially heading to an economic crash, because the ignorant were convinced that the African refugees were coming for their pure and white land.

There won't be another vote. Attitudes like yours towards anyone who dares to hold a different opinion to you has guaranteed that. Unthinking hate and insult never won a debate yet.

I hope you're happy.

yes but you said *only* those types voted for Brexit

Show the many millions of decent, intelligent leave voters some respect even if you don't agree with them.

Well said. People believing lies doesn't make them ignorant, especially when the lying is so pervasive.


People on both sides largely voted for what they felt was best for themselves and the country.

Regardless of the veracity of the information, sometimes you have to ask the people the reasons why they feel the way they do, and ask it often.

I believe there is a culture of referendums in Switzerland. That makes sense if you believe in polling the people frequently.

It's a reflection on politicians that they can't easily admit they got things wrong, in referendum or GE. We don't have a political culture which allows the government to acknowledge mistakes; the opposition will *always* jump on it for personal gain.

Actually, students came out in numbers and voted Labour in the last election. The party who's manifesto stated they would repect the referendum and end freedom of movement.

If they wanted to stay in the EU they should have voted Lib Dems, that would have sent a message. Oh wait, they wanted their student loans written off and to leave the EU.

They were so keen a lot of them voted twice.

Strange how Corbyn is not keen on finding ways to stop that happening.

Except there's no actual evidence of that happening.


Lots of evidence of students being turned away due to the registrations going missing, though.

Wrong, one person has been convicted. That almost certainly means there was a lot more doing it too.

Corbyn does not like the idea of people being forced to show ID at voting stations, yet most people have some form of ID and if they do not how do they deal with other things that need ID? OK, they need ID? Offer them a Citizens card for free, that would solve it.

There's no actual evidence supporting remainers claims that leavers are old, thick racists either but you cling to that theory like a limpet.
