Referendums cost millions and are addressed to voters who, for the most part, are quite incapable of making an educated response. Thus, people like Johnson, Gove, Farage etc are allowed to mislead them. It’s better that Parliament takes the decision whether or not to rejoin and leaves it to the voters at the next general election to express their approval or not.
If the 2016 referendum was run properly, I believe we would still be, either in the EU or in the EEA. That is why I am afraid of another referendum, in case it would be manipulated with lies etc, the same as the last one.
Allow me to elucidate. If it had been a mandatory referendum, we may have been able to prosecute the liars. The lies have cost us a lot.
The remain voters were voting for one thing and one thing only: ‘Remain!’
The leave vote was split between those who wanted a common market and those who wanted to leave completely. That means we would not have got a 52% vote leave. But we would still have got a 48% vote remain. We almost certainly would have still been in the EU, or worst-case scenario, we would probably be in a common market.
Vote Leave should have been required to achieve a super-majority to win. They wouldn’t have been able to achieve that.
The liars said we would be able to do everything outside the EU that we can within it. You can’t be at the party unless you belong to the club. That is the way things work.
Personally, I would rather the referendum had not happened at all. But I think that had it been run properly, we would still be inside the EU.

No referendum please. The last was intended for guidance. Surely MPs don’t need guidance – just get on and do it.

Let’s make lying to and deceiving the public a criminal offence first. As things stand, it will just be another platform for the liars.
