The Tories - and all Brexiteers - want neither, especially the referendum.
Why? Because an informed electorate would / will vote differently next time around.
Hi
Do not be so sure.
I was well informed when I voted Leave and I will be voting Leave in any further Referendum.
I did not vote for this mess, however here is a very important principle at stake here.
Ordinary people were asked a question, we voted to leave.
That has to take precedence over everything else.
We are a democracy, end of, we are not to be ruled by an Elite.
The Elite may not like what we voted for, but so what?
We must not return to pre Magna Carta ,, ruled by dictate.
The vote of a sewer cleaner must have the same relevance as the vote of an Eton Educated rich boy.
That is democracy.
