Whilst in less than 1 day over a million people have amassed from all over the country and took part in the anti-brexit March in London today.
The number of 'marchers' in 'Leave March' have been restricted. Farage said this before they left. It was somehow controlled to numbers as accommodation was needed over night and people had to apply. By the time they get to Westminster there might be some more.

With regard London, they are majority foreign and professionals all have the weekends off down there ,spending their money in champagne bars at St. Pancras Station. Everyone North of Watford works weekends and nights. You know, the scum on minimum wage jobs......

Julie why are you comparing one with the other? It wasn't just remainers at the people's vote march. It concerns us all.

Who else could they be? Don't know of any 'leavers' wanting another referendum.

You have little idea of how the majority of London works. It as near. 24/7 city as its possible to be. Yes the old city of London finance centre clocks off on a Friday but the rest London and it’s workers carry on.

There’s a high probability won’t be a minimum wage when we leave the EU as the hard line Brexiteers want deregulation and that includes wages. If you think it’s tough now and after Brexit it’s going to get better you are going to be in for a shock

Of course Rees Mogg, Farage and their ilk will do very nicely shorting UK PLC

We had one of those in 2012 that was, unlike the exiting the EU referendum, legally binding

The people rejected reform on voting which could have been the precursor to further change to update some of the archaic procedures

Hi

The situation has changed dramatically since then.

Never have so many been completely disillusioned with our Politicians.

The situation has also changed dramatically since the EU referendum. The people are now more informed as to the potential disastrous implications of Brexit and that it will not be as easy and painless as promised.

All the recent polls indicate that remaining is now the popular sentiment and its clear that parliament is in a deadlock

Therefore, following your logic the argument for a second referendum on leaving the EU is clearly right

This is exactly what is needed. A reform to the political system.
Get rid of first past the post for a start or lets go mad and ban party politics and stop all the in house squabbling just to make
Party points.

Im not clever enough to work out how this could be done but the present system is not working anymore.

Easy enough to do - make MPs DELEGATES to their constituents as opposed to the present Representatives.
