EU or no EU, nothing is going to improve for the UK while the electorate continues to vote in governments that do not value their intrests. IMHO Brexit was another red herring. Sent from my SM-A520F using Tapatalk

Why change a winning strategy. The electorate lap it up. Sent from my SM-A520F using Tapatalk

I don't. But don't let that stop you.

I see, sorry that was not obvious to me. Makes sense though, ,my apologies. To be honest i was expecting something a bit more concrete than your two examples. I am not sure the precedent set by these examples stacks up against the Brexit vote. Entangling the country from the EU is way way way...

SO you don't have a link for the citation "(European Communities 1975, AV 2011)" at the end of 'If a referendum gives a decision we abide by that decision'? This is getting painful I'll ask again and I'll try to be clearer. You asserted that "If you want to be in the EU campaign to rejoin...

You used the quote above as evidence for your assertion that there was a 'correct democratic path". I was simply asking where your quote and citation came from so i could get a better understanding of what you were getting at. You then posted a link to the European Union Referendum Act with no...

I was referring this this? Either way though where am i looking in the 2015 act to find where is talks about the government being bound to the referendum's decision? I was under the impression that this was not the case.

That's the European Union Referendum act 2015? Which sections should I be looking in?

Could you post a link to the legislation you quote in your first sentence as I cannot find it? My understanding is that in general referendums are not legally binding and do not compel government to act in accordance. An exception to this was in 2011 with the referendum to change the electoral...

This is uncharted waters, there is no correct democratic path.

:salute:

I was only 1 in 1975 so won't comment on that. I am yet to hear a decent argument for not having a second referendum. It will either show a change of mind from the public or put some meat on the bones of what they want from Brexit. Win win as far as I can see. Sent from my SM-A520F using...

The original referendum was non binding wasnt it? I would suggest that to drive your prices that referendum was insufficient in detail. Anyway Past I think we will need to agree to disagree here. Sent from my SM-A520F using Tapatalk

This may be the case. However there is certainly plenty of evidence that the information voters used to make their choice was flawed. Added to that there is now plenty more information around what Brexit will now potentially look like. The paradigm around this discussion has certainly shifted...

Exactly. Suggesting a second referendum is undemocratic is nonsense. If there is sufficient evidence that the will of the people has shifted then measuring that shift is entirely appropriate. Sticking with a decision dispite did evidence sounds more like a dictatorship to me. Sent from my...
