Im not saying it wont damage the institution of democracy, I am just saying it is the only way to settle this one way or the other, so is a necessary evil. Very necessary. How does including an option to Remain, for a second time, settle anything? I can just about, with a great deal of grudging concession, accept an argument that a vote might have some credibility on say, either Mays deal or no deal. I would still loathe it happening but can concede that there might be some democratic legitimacy to that notion. Still damaging, and an abject failure of Parliament but a case, none the less. But to have a second stab at Remaining in the EU? No. Absolutely fatal to democracy. Beyond unacceptable and containing within it not only the seeds of potentially a civil conflict that will destroy the Uk as we know it but will be a fully fledged treeling. We must leave the EU. No ifs or buts. There is no return to the status quo.

You had all this time to think of something cutting and witty, and this is it, Chris? That was not worth waiting for. Not your best work here. You say that sweetie pie, but this thread grows by about 9 pages of your pure unadulterated bull s*** just in the time it takes to crimp off a turd. You might have posted that hours ago, it's been lost in the ether along with the rest of your ravings up until about half hour ago.

I think turnout is going to be incredibly low which could shake things up. I'm going to spoil my ballot, this s*** shouldn't be happening. A positive vote only gives the process credibility.

That's true, but this one will be. There is near zero chance that the Brexit Party won't get the most votes. Farage has played this well, and it's a clear message, well clearer than 'Change'?!?. The Tories will receive another protest vote, much as they did in the local elections, and the remain vote will get split multiple ways because it's unclear where Labour really stands on the issue. Hence why the Lib Dems are getting a bump.
