We will have to agree to disagree over this, Steve. I don't believe a second referendum will do anything but divide the country still further and give Farage and his ilk more ammunition.

What should have happened is the government should have done their job properly. The rules of the referendum should have been a 2/3 majority at least. The fact that it was only advisory should have been adhered to. There should have been strict rules on campaigning honestly. When it did go wrong pig sticker general should have admitted he gambled and lost and said he could not accept such a close result rather than being allowed to fall on his sword.

But none of that did happen and the Tories are now paying the price. We should now concentrate on getting the best deal possible and hoping that the resultant swing to the left across Europe will be of benefit to everyone.

Just my 2p of course.
