It's democratic isn't it? What is? If you are talking about the referendum, would you want a vote on everything?

What the f*ck? This is the kind of post that gets my blood boiling. You seem to regard 'remain' as a badge of identity forged in the womb or something, rather than a considered position that people have thought about. The point is that people who voted remain tend to think that the future will be worse if we leave. Why is that so f*cking hard to grasp? It's not a political front or a way of trying to 'win' - most sensible people want what is best for the country. But there is thin f*cking gruel coming from the leave side beyond 'foreigners are bad', 'it'll be alright on the night' and 'don't like the united states of europe'. Frankly I think I'd prefer the last at the moment, at least decision making might be a bit more enlightened. The immediate future probably will be worse after Brexit. Most of the millions who voted leave were and still are aware of that. The future doesn't cut off at 2022 or 2025. Foreigners are not bad. Most are good, including all I've met. Some aren't good or particularly necessary and are preventing the young from being trained because it isn't good business. I'm pleased net immigration is down, but it's not enough. No I don't feel guilty and neither do I if I speak to an east European, who've also agreed and would've thought about their own citizens as well. So spare me how much better we ALL are by being in the EU. A lot are not.

Why is it that you and yours never mention, let alone consider, the effects of Draghis' continued policy of printing money/debt (from thin-air) to maintain some semblance of 'growth' within the bloc for many years now? What will happen, in your opinion, now the tap is heading toward 'OFF'? Why is that so f***ing hard to grasp?

No - I like the fact we rarely have referenda, I like the idea that the Parliament we elect take most of the decisions. Once in a while though, there is an issue that needs to go to the people and this was one. What we need now is for everyone get behind what the majority voted for and hence my commment about being democratic.

Latest polls say only 44% of the 51.8% would definitely vote Leave again if there were a referendum tomorrow. So who should we be getting behind now exactly?
