Do you want another EU Referendum?No it isn't. Not to change the constitution so radically. A vote of 66% was needed in Parliament to bring the election forward and this was gained by Theresa May when she wanted her snap election. Referendums are different from elections and need greater than just a majority vote.ViewDate:

Do you want another EU Referendum?Of course we need another referendum on the final deal. How do we know what it will be? Voting for Brexit was voting for a pig in a poke and nobody knew the ramifications of that decision. We still don't. If a deal is struck whic doesn't include the single market and the customs union we're in trouble. The markets we were supposed to be able to access boiled down to America (wither Trump?) Philippines (murderous tyrant Duterte) and Saudi Arabia, oh and I think Gambia was interested. Other areas of the world have their own trading blocs who have arrangements with the EU. I have yet to hear a logical and plausible argument for coming out. Older people who voted Leave have the future of their children and grandchildren on their conscience.
