My figures of yesterday were correct too, and they corrected a false impression of the two Europe referendums that you tried to present. And your comparison with a presidential election is false. First, you can change your president every four years. Not irrevocable. Second, our referendum was completely skewed. A vote to remain would not have been irrevocable. Future referendums to try to get us to leave would have been perfectly possible, quite likely in fact in the event of a tight result,. but the vote to leave, once Article 50 Is activated, is to, all intents and purposes, irrevocable. Even if we wanted to, it would take decades for us to get back in, and the EU almost certainly wouldn't want us back. That is why the threshold was set way too low. Whilst I vehemently oppose the holding of any referendums on this matter (or any other), if we are going to have one the threshold should have been no lower than 60% leave on a minimum 75% turnout. Comparisons with general elections are invidious and mischievous.
