    The result would be exactly the same. The majority don't want to be governed by foreign countries.

    The only thing I would change would be for the Remain leader to declare that he would leave if he lost, rather than lie to us. If the campaigns were run again it would be useful for Remain to put forward a positive case for staying rather than endless lies and threats.

    The only people on here who seem to want to remain are either abroad or gambled and lost on staying in. It's no wonder they are so bitter, but only have themselves to blame.
    If you both are made to cross biologically, the resulting offspring would be thicker than the fat on MF's bum.

      Remainer - we should have stayed in because of Freedom of Movement
      Exiter - we're leaving because of Freedom of Movement

      So naturally Remainers can see all kinds of benefits to stay, and Exiters cannot.

      Other benefits - 2 year guarantee on all products, standarised USB chargers...

      But as GB9 keeps saying "There are not benefits, that's why no one has given any".

        I get free roaming on 3 and that extends to NZ and USA.

        I don't remember either of those counties being in the EU.

            Brexiters seem to be proud of throwing themselves off a cliff with no idea what happens next. I thought it was quite reasonable to ask "what happens next?", but apparently anyone who said that is either stupid, hates the British, or is a rich expat looking out for their own self interest.

            The big positive reason as you well know is that we're economically better off being in the EU, at least in the short to medium term. Whether the dreams of ultimately being better off outside come true or not, you've heaped years of instability on the country that we may take decades to recover from.

            I said all along if there was a plan I might vote for it. But there was no plan, just a load of dubious or entirely untrue statements designed to get people so emotional that they lost all reason. And it worked. Would a vote today be different? Well maybe the non-voters would wake up and realise what was going to be forced upon them by a minority, but otherwise no, probably not.

                      A referendum to ask "Do you hate government and want to give them a good kicking" might be interesting.
