The cynic in me wonders if this is not just a ruse to tear apart two Party politics?
If there is another referendum, the conservatives and labour will probably drive themselves to distraction with internal fighting - just what they don't need before the next election. |

TBH I've already come to the conclusion that neither of the two main parties are fit for purpose any longer. I'd be quite happy to see them both break up and the extremes of both spin of into electrical obscurity. |

Yes there should be a referendum where full and clear information upon the options is available, before significant life altering decisions are taken on this.
This man is an opportunistic twat who the media should avoid. His time is passed, his party a busted flush. |

Having finally 'got what he wanted' and destroyed his single mandate, Farage - after briefly fucking off to America and, like everyone, getting nothing from Trump - comes back home with his new master plan to propel himself back into the limelight...
"I propose eeeerm... another vote to support leaving, only more so? To destroy Britain's enemies... who've already lost."
Yeah that'll work, mate. Don't let your plane hit the ground on your way out. |

It will be a tough one for him. Probably biding his time to make sure there was no misquote or anything taken out of context whilst furiously trawling right wing websites and newspapers for a spin.
Herr Farage’s Disciples have had their brains whipped today - it will likely take them a while to put things back together. |

"I'm not in favour of referendum period. They never resolve or solve anything and, as Thatcher and Atlee said, are the tool of demagogues and dictators. Never again!"
There won't be a 2nd referendum the government has already made a statement saying so since Farage made the comments earlier today. I can understand Farage's reasons for wanting another referendum as another win for Leave would in his view 'shut the remainers up for good' and settle the issue once and for all. I'm not so sure though, Remoaning, whining, bitching, whinging wankers like Blair and Clegg still wouldn't accept it if the country voted Leave for a 2nd time they would still try to sabotage the Brexit process.
Besides too much water has passed under the bridge now as Conservative MP Bill Cash said on sky news earlier today, Parliament voted with a huge majority for a referendum and the decision was given to the British people. The country chose Leave and Parliament voted with a majority again to trigger article 50.
Article 50 has been officially triggered and now the EU Withdrawal bill is well on its way through the Commons. It recently passed 2nd reading stage with only 1 ammendment added which was a Tory ammendment (all the Labour, SNP, Green, and Lib dem ammendments were rejected). Bill Cash said all of this work would have to be undone through acts of Parliament which simply now will never happen. As Jean Claude Juncker head of the EU even admitted a couple of days ago that Brexit will happen now and will not be reversed no matter how much opposition remainers kick up. Even the EU has resigned itself to the fact the UK is leaving on 29th March 2019. So I can understand Farage's reasons for saying what he said but it's just not going to happen.

We know what you think would happen but Farage is far smarter than you could ever dream of.

It doesn't take much cunning or guile to be a populist and promise people only good things, no bad things, if they do what you say.
Though he was self-aware enough not to not have anything to do with the enacting his stupid plan once it actually happened, so I guess that puts him one step above clowns like Trump.

Everyone who voted leave will be wishing we did have a second vote, when the country is in ruins short of nurses in the NHS, Produce growers wanting Seasonal workers. City jobs Gone as all moved abroad. Be able to thank farage for what he has helped to ruin. |

" I don't for one and of it did happen(which it wont)I would still vote to leave as I am more set on leaving than I was when we had the referendum.The reason is largely to do with the sad nasty attitude of remainers they discust me

A poll last month showed there is no appetite in the country for a 2nd referendum. Only 16% in the poll said they wanted a 2nd referendum. Over 60% said they wanted the government to get on and deliver Brexit. |

The outcome of the Brexit referendum would be reversed if it was held tomorrow, a poll suggests.
The Survation survey showed a clear majority of Britons (54 per cent) would vote to Remain in the European Union if another referendum was held, while 46 per cent would back Brexit. |

Bring it on I say as I would be interested in seeing just how much things have changed.
They waste more money on useless surveys and projects than it would cost
Then at least it would settle it once and for all either way.
But what happens if it was so close again? If as they say the 18 to 24’s could not be assed to even bother then it should be a landslide for the remain! |

Good idea, have another referendum on the in/out issue. What happens if it's not the answer individual's are seeking?
Correct me if I'm wrong but was the last referendum in favour of leaving? Will the next referendum be in favour of staying? (if there is one)
You can't please everyone, that's life! However as children often do, if you stamp your feet and shout loud enough you quite possibly get what you want. |

I listened to Farage's LBC broadcast where he spoke about a second referendum. And for the second time in a week I found myself agreeing with him and his thinking.
I for one did not think he was advocating a second referendum because he has changed his mind, but that he is advocating that the leave side prepare for a second referendum and force the government to make provisions for one should the leave deal be struck down by parliament. Incidentally, he now accepts, after his meeting with Jean Paul Juncker that this is highly likely because we will not get a comprehensive trade deal giving our manufacturing and services free access to the single market. Further his justification for his position is based on the fact that the pro remain lobby is still visibly active and still campaigning while the leave lobby is now effectively nonexistent, with its former leaders now part of the government and bound by the Cabinet and Ministerial code of collective decision making and responsibility.
Regardless of my views (which most here will know), I think Farage is right in his thinking and for the sake of democracy his words should be heeded and acted on. |

Not really. Most remainers have been saying we will get a bad deal. And some have been campaigning for a second referendum after we know what the deal is. This is not the same as most of the country saying either. In fact it is just as disingenuous as the leave campaign claiming the majority of the country voted to leave.
The fact is this issue has so fractured the country that many on both sides are unable to hear what the other side is saying. In fact I am reminded of listening to the older generations talking about the Germans and Japanese in the 60's. There is the same sort of deep rooted hatred for the 'enemy' and refusal to engage with anyone that has anything positive to say about them that I witnessed in those that fought and were held prisoner by the Japanese especially. |

They used to insist that they would refuse to buy anything Japanese! They'd struggle in today's world. But I do agree entirely with your post. We had a poorly organized referendum with no checks and balances, with no power to block false statements and as we are finding out now the dirty illegal tricks pulled by UK organizations & foreign governments. I wonder how many 23 yr old students get £700k worth of investment! A total sham and controls need to be in place and rigourous - no good after the event it's too late then. |

Well, he has had his MEP salary docked to recoup misspent public funds intended for staffing his office.
Which shouldn't come as a surprise, as Farage is, at heart, a grifter. |

I would think most would. However there needs to be checks and balances in place. Anyone who lies is suspended from making anymore contact with the public. If an MP they lose their seat. Immediate intervention is needed - it's too late after the event. Any foreign "bots" closed down too. |

Parliamentarians should be the most upstanding people in the country. Working for the country as a whole, not themselves. Alas no longer the case. But an MP who lies has no right to remain in the post - no matter which party they represent. Trust is everything. |
