"If a democracy cannot change its mind, it ceases to be a democracy”. I think that sums up the case for a fresh referendum pretty well. It expresses the reason why those who assert that in refusing any such vote is because it would be a betrayal of democracy are so wrong headed.

It's ironic that the words come from a speech made by arch-Brexiters David Davis. But then he was talking back in 2012.

I wish that people who oppose the electorate having a fresh vote would say the truth - that they are against it because they don't want to risk losing. That's a perfectly valid reason after all.
