Doubts Remain

UK politics is failing because of “passive and fearful” opposition to leaving the EU. Kirsty Hughes, director of the Scottish Centre on European Relations, said the UK was heading for a “damaging” hard Brexit because Remain voters had been left with little strong representation. Never in the history of voting, have we ever voted, counted the ballots and then decided if the votes cast were worth it. Democracy doesn’t work like that, we vote, and the majority rules decision is final, it isn’t questioned or challenged.

Max Bennie I didn’t ask for the referendum but I tried my best to understand all the issues as far as they were available to me and voted Remain mostly on the basis that I was aware of the balance of the benefits of EU membership against the downsides. Now I want to have a referendum on the final deal so that I have the opportunity to make a more informed decision

Remain UK Surely the biggest challenge, and the danger of a damaging Brexit, is that we are not all pulling together to sort out a decent deal with the EU, the remainers lost, therefore we now have to be united when dealing with the EU, instead of faffing about and feeding the false hope that there is any likelihood of another referendum.
