Assuming this is a protest against the perception that the referendum result is being ignored, I'm really glad that you'll choose not to vote, and I'd enourage you to encourage as many Brexiters as possible to follow your lead.

I honestly think that the people should have more of a say in what happens not just a select few in parliament... If all parties could cooperate to sort something out and just be one big party, then let the people decide what's best. . ..

I think things would of been dealt with by now.

I think they should have done one as soon as the bus adverts were revealed as false.

I think any widespread false advertisement by any major political party should void a referendum result immediately.

We need to realize that a modern referendum need to be run with modern rules, bring them in, and rerun it.

But that should have been done ages ago, not now. Now it should just be accepted that false advertising and social media manipulation may have swayed the result.

I think i am probably a rare breed..Undecided in 2016 and finally voted to remain ..

If we had another referendum, i would vote to leave if it were on the slip.

Not a lover of referendums as that's why we pay MPs highly to make such decisions.

I think its a cop out for such people to throw it back at us.

We should have been promised a 2nd referendum before voting in the 1st ( Jacob Rees Mogg called for this ,) so we knew what the terms of our withdrawal would be and we could then decide ,, the fact that the conservative government were so inept in calling a in/out vote now makes it very difficult for anyone to call another referendum ,,, However , if another vote were to be held I would vote remain ( as I did before ) , the difference being that I was a reluctant remainer and would now be 1st in the queue to vote remain

More voted to leave than stay.

We should have started the process of leaving and let them come to us and get a deal rather than us being weak again and go cap in hand to them.

That in my view is where it wen't wrong.

They didn't want us to leave so they should be doing the running after us, not us trying to get a good deal from them..

never seen the bus adverts and do not really use social media. How did it sway us?

That normal remainer argument it getting boring now.

We looked up the pros and cons of both sides ourselves. Taking into account experiance of working in europe and both of us voted to leave.

We do not believe what any polititian says whether they for and against tell the truth tho. Do also feel sorry for May. Cameron was a complete ass.

We're British and rioting isn't really our thing. In France yeah, If there is a 2nd Ref there will be no riots before, nor after. The previous Ref, apart from being non binding and advisory was subject to criminality. Plus, there was a spectrum of leave meanings. Finally, it was 3 years ago. The public has moved on. The pubic knows much more now.

2nd Ref on the outcome based on Remain V Leave (with leave having a sub vote or leave no deal, mays deal) is the way forward. If Leave wins we're out by the means deciding in the leave sub vote (i.e. no deal or mays deal). If we remain, we remain.

So that will make it 1-1

Or is it best of 3-5-7-9

Nothing Democratic about it

Just maybe if the remainers had accepted that they lost the referendum and accepted the result we might of been out of the eu with a good deal now

It's not undemocratic to resort to more democracy.

Oh and I accept that leave won. I'm just confused about why no one likes the only leave solution that doesn't violate international law.

Is it because the people were lied to?

The result of another referendum will surely cause even more division and my understaning is leave or no deal will not be on the ballot paper...

Parliament overwhelmingly want to remain.

As for previous comments about remainers not rioting, it is the remainers who are creating the divisions through not accepting the original public vote.

Whoah hold on a second? It's the fault of the remainers that there's a bad deal? Where is the blame on the leavers who all fucked off the morning of the result because they shit themselves when leave won? Do you portion any blame onto Boris, Gove et al for not wanting to step up to the plate to give leavers the unicorn deal that they wanted? They've allowed May to whittle down the hours on the clock rather than stepping up to the mantel. They have betrayed the vote more than anybody because they promised you a good deal and a smooth transition but they didn't want to be there to deliver it. Why is that? Surely if it was conceivable we'd now have left and Boris would have been hailed the greatest PM we ever had? He's laughing at you along with the rest of them. Time's up and guess what? They're slowly coming back out of the woodwork. May's useless but she stayed. Corbyn's not much better but he stuck around too. Even farage fled the morning of the result. Leavers have very short memories.

"If the politicians dont like the vote they change the electorate until they get the answer the politicians want...

Ask Ireland how often they have to vote until they get the "right" answer "

Ireland only ever voted twice on one treaty, after clarification

and guarantees was given about one clause.

There are good arguments for and against Brexit, but as a non British subject following this from outside, I can't help seeing a comparison between Theresa May and a Fab member posting an 'I'm Leaving' thread. The thread goes on for ages, some other members post wishing her luck. Some post 'why don't you just hide your profile and take a break' and most post 'she's still here'. Maybe the answer is to leave, see how it goes and if you find you miss it, then have a referendum to change username and rejoin.

It like when two people on fabs have been chatting for ages, really got on and gone into great detail about what will happen when they meet up.

They finally do meet and they don't fancy each other but both are too embarrassed and think they have said too much to back off. So they go from drink to dinner to snog to grope, both of them hating it more and more.

They then go back to their pre booked hotel room and get undressed utterly miserable and are just about to get down to the sex...

At that point one could say "look this isn't working, let's go home" and the other one would be immensely grateful.

The second referendum is just like that and would bring to an end this joyless fuck we've been going through for three years.

Rees Mogg, Aaron Banks etc. These are the few individuals who will benefit from Brexit at the expense of the rest of us.

Not sure I understand the second part of the question, remaining in the E.U. would have kept the uk relatively* fair society, and keeps the power out of the hands of a few individuals.

* I say “relatively”, because we need to make things better, reduce austerity, provide more opportunities to people etc. Basically the opposite of what Brexit is bringing.

What’s left after Brexit for the extreme brexiteers.

This is the right question to be asking. If they get the most severe damaging Brexit possible, then this is where their fun begins. They can start removing the red tape of environmental protection, of workers rights etc. So their businesses can further exploit people and the environment.

Those who wish to leave to avoid paying their taxes, and to play currency markets, such as Rees Mogg, Brexit is the end game for them, they can retire and live like kings.

In fairness we’ve asked lots of times why people voted leave, specifically what benefits there are for the uk.

No one has been able to give an answer that wasn’t proven wrong in five minutes with data, evidence and links to demonstrate the data.

Surely you can understand our frustration that the country is being flushed down the bog and no one can even be arsed to give a solid reason why.

A company was paid millions to sift through everyones social media info and personally direct adverts at them. Some would see pictures of migrants, some pictures of nhs, some neither but made up facts on business. Everyone knows this.

You researched it before you voted and voted leave? So you were fully aware of the northern Ireland issue and voted leave? SO you accepted northern Ireland would have to enter a seperate customs agreement to honour the GFA? So why are leavers pushing the government to do a no deal brexit and not do the backstop?

I am pretty sure you can also see on Google that pretty much every Leave argument is based on a lie, so a 2nd Referendum would give you a chance to revise your decision based on the truth for a change.

The question of how can having more democracy be anti-democracy is facile.

If you ask a question over and over again until you get the answer you want you aren't practicing democracy, you are simply rubber stamping your dictat.

Now, ultimately if this were a question where the situation could be variable and say we changed in or out every year and the was a vote each year, that would be democracy (though clearly not applicable here)

Or what could be more applicable here is if we said in 10 years time having been out for a decade "Do you want to go back in" that would also be democracy.

But we keep talking about how "the facts have changed" as a reason for a second referendum. The facts haven't changed. This bullshit was always going to be how it went down, it was obvious from the start.

"Do not really pay attention to adverts tell the truth so no never seen.

Do i have all the answers?. Of course not. Same as you. I made an educated decision when voted same as always do. You can google the answers to your questions save me writing an essay.

Can you answer why everyone who voted leave a racist? Uneducated? I can google facts and figures, regions blah da blah can find nothing to justify that statement. Or you just getting on your high horse behind a keyboard?"

They call leavers racist because of adverts you claim not to have seen? the adverts showing long queues of migrants trying to get into the UK, showing how they needed to keep them out?

To quote an independent review of the adverts after facebook handed them over.

"with the official Vote Leave campaign especially deploying direct dogwhistle racism to stir up fear among voters about foreigners coming to the UK if it can’t control its own border or if the EU expands to add more countries"

The turkey/albania adverts.

Yes, hundreds... It's the main topic of conversation with my customers and people I work with... I come into contact with dozens every week, so it's not really a huge stretch to work out that over the course of 3 years, I've discussed Brexit with hundreds of people.

How many of them did you say were "racist fools" to their face!? None I bet! "

Remainers do tend to be cowardly, hiding behind a keyboard types. Their main arguments seem to be insults, misinformation and calling all leavers racist. They aren't the sort of people that should have a vote, let alone a voice

As the binary decision leave/remain has already been made, surely the only questions for a second referendum should involve a choice between the options involved in leaving?

But dont worry about us. The nasty messages get for daring to say we want to be out of the eu makes us feel better about ourselves shows some if the real characteristics of a lot of remainers once they behind a keyboard. (Reminds of the crazy lady in simpsons who throws cats at everyone )

I don’t know you, so I can’t comment. My experience is that Remainers are fact based and Leavers are hope based. Nothing wrong with that other than this hope is based on romantic notions of Britains past and lie’s from Brexit leaders.

So that will make it 1-1

Or is it best of 3-5-7-9

Nothing Democratic about it

Just maybe if the remainers had accepted that they lost the referendum and accepted the result we might of been out of the eu with a good deal now

Maybe you could give us all some idea of what this 'good deal' might have actually looked like?

Actually 2-1 you forgot about the 1973 vote to join the EEC.. "

1975 actually, and it was Leave or Remain not whether to join or not. Remain won with 67%.

So the actual score is 1 - 1, with Remain ahead of percentage difference.

Don’t you see any irony in your comments? Remainers use facts and information. So far I haven’t heard any facts or information in favour of Brexit. Just “opinions” and “belief”.

Leavers have been challenged countless times to provide 1 single simple benefit to the uk from leaving the E.U. thus far no one has been able to give a single benefit. Not one, nothing.

Any remainer could give you some very simple factual disadvantages of leaving.

do not think there is any confusion. Sure we all adults and can google facts. There are pros and cons to both sides and we all voted how we wanted.

I think the confusion is remainers demanding a second vote because did not win . When younger, called those people sore losers.

" Indeed. That's the most hilarious thing. We would be out of the EU now if the most fervent brexiteer mps had voted for it.

I'm beginning to think that there's a genuine fear of leaving from the most extreme Brexiters. Once out, what's left for them? They know they can no longer blame the EU for everything, and people will find most of their rhetoric to be hollow. Almost better to be in so they can remain 'glorious warriors' against Brussels without ever having to do anything about it.

Either that or they'll move on to the betrayal narrative, which never ends well, for anyone...

What’s left after Brexit for the extreme brexiteers.

This is the right question to be asking. If they get the most severe damaging Brexit possible, then this is where their fun begins. They can start removing the red tape of environmental protection, of workers rights etc. So their businesses can further exploit people and the environment.

Those who wish to leave to avoid paying their taxes, and to play currency markets, such as Rees Mogg, Brexit is the end game for them, they can retire and live like kings."

Yes, quite. I agree. I was thinking more of what's left of their political raison d'etre - there will be no Brussels bogey-man to rail against/hide behind.

A severe Brexit will cause huge harm to many people. Of course, Rees Mogg et al will be fine, but you have to hope their less well-off followers will quickly see them for the charlatans they are...

Parliament aren't opposing the vote. The problem isn't some massive conspiracy of "us and them" it's the exact opposite in that no-one agrees on anything. Which is exactly what leavers were told would happen. Which was just dismissed as Project Fear. You made this. Own it.

Well it works actually. Since we havent actually HAD brexit and your side is doing its very best to prevent the outcome of a democratic vote the analogy would be best expressed as you being 2-0 down at full time and then demanding everyone get back on the pitch before the winner could lift the trophy so that you can go again and have a chance to win this time.

I dont have a problem with a referendum some time down the line after we have been out a while to determine whether people would like to rejoin. If thats what people want, goody gumdrops, thats democracy.

Trying to reverse a decision before you have even implemented their first instruction, thats not.
