Franchise should be reduced to land-owners over the age of 30

The public voted for Obama too. Then the next year they voted for Trump. Have another election, but maybe this time instead of making it a referendum make it ***legally binding***

Because the last one wasn't no matter how much you cry and pound on the playroom floor about it.

Re-doing a referendum (Not an election) because you dislike the outcome is tyranny

There is a clear public mandate for leaving

It's an election of a policy silly. :D

"clear public mandate for leaving" 🤔

And if there is a clear public push for a recall election (which there is) revoting is not atypical.

An election is set regularly every 5 years, referendums are not

The public is pushing for a recall referendum. Just look at the millions signing on for petitions/

Let them have it. If the policy stands, no harm no foul. If it doesn't, democracy in action.

What are you afraid of?

That they *god forbid* changed their minds?

The millions who... voted remain... and want to overturn the results...

And?

Appealing to them is non sensical

What, do you think that the voting differential will magically change?

If this is truly the decision the public wants a recall vote will be at the very worst irrelevant.

Of course the losing side (Of which I was a part) wants to undemocratically and tyrannically overturn a democratic vote

Whoop de doo.

It is a democratic function you silly duckling.

Recall votes and elections are an ingrained part of democracy.

It was only a few years ago in fact that my own state had a recall election for our governor.

Not in the UK we don't

Why not?

There was no recall vote on independence

Which for me is arguably more important a matter than Brexit

You totally have recall systems in place.

It would help if you read the first paragraph...

Recall of MPs yes.

```The Recall of MPs Act 2015 (c. 25) is an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom that makes provision for constituents to be able to recall their Member of Parliament (MP) and call a by-election```

Yes, so why not a policy too?

What are you so deathly scared of?

It's clearly not a subversion of democracy.

You have it in place for your own representatives for goodness sakes.

Referendums and elections are non-comparable. They are two different systems with different purposes.

Absolutely comparable. One elects a person, the other elects a policy.

One is just more direct in the working of the people on the government than the other.

You're being *very* silly.
