I get it too.
If there was a "People's Vote" or "2nd referendum" I would vote for a Hard Brexit.

HTH, BIDI.

There was one in the 1970s as well where the UK voted to join the EC, so using Brexiteer logic teh people had already spoken and the referendum in 2016 was undemocratic

Just to correct you, the 1975 wasn't a vote to join, it was a vote to remain (we joined on Jan 1st 1973).
And in case you hadn't realised it, you have actually answered the question. We joined the EEC, an economic community. Now it has morphed itself into a Union, with the intention of becoming a single nation state, many of us no longer wish for the UK to be a member. By definition, the EEC and the EU are totally different entities, so the 1975 vote is irrelevant.

You mean those that voted didn't understand what they voted for and we should have another vote ???? Disgusting!

What Brexit voters voted for is exactly the same as what they voted for in 1975, i.e. to remain members of the EU. They just didn't know it.

Brexit SELL OUT as UK to REMAIN tied to EU rules in STITCH-UP

I recommend this film if you want to avoid being stitched up in the future.

The EU didn't exist in 1975. I thought we were trying to keep lies out of the discussion?

Once EUSSR takes over the world all history books will be changed to say that EUSSR had been forever.

It is for the sovereign British parliament to decide whether there is a further referendum. If it decides there will be, the patriotic gammons will certainly celebrate such an expression of parliamentary sovereignty.

I don't believe there should be a second referendum but if there were one, would it also be advisory?
