        If 500k have turned out which requires some effort - even if you live in Islington - why has the people vote petition still only got 322,229 backers after four months which requires very little effort to sign?

        I really don’t understand why people are marching around when something has already been decided. I know people are saying that we didn’t know all of the details prior to the first vote but the vote was to leave. Can’t go back on that regardless of the issues now arising. 😴

        Why not? If the referendum was illegal in terms of funding, fuelled by propaganda and lies, bolstered by unachievable promises, that's not democracy. Let the people know what they are voting for no matter which way they vote.

        Propaganda and lies!? The remain campaign had the US President, the most powerful man in the world get involved on the referendum and they still lost. You lot are just salty that you lost and now want to throw your toys out the pram

        Was it 120k uk citizens and the rest eu, figures do seem to vary greatly but 120k doesn’t grab the headlines like 700k does

        How many of these 700,000 protesters were legitimate #Brexit voters who voted on 23 June 2016? Did BBC or Sky News check poll cards of these protesters? Is 17.4 million a bigger number or 700,000? #PeoplesMarchVote #PeoplesVote

        If brexit loses in a close one, and pro brexit protestors swarm the streets, do they do a “2 out of 3” vote?

        No they get an honest informed vote, unlike the last one. So if you think that the government is doing a bang up job of the deal, great vote with it, but know what you're voting for.

        Didn't they already vote to #Brexit? So the globalists want to change the rules after the game is over? Don't fall for it. Elections have consequences.

        My grandmother came to the US from Scotland when she was 12. I have Irish, English, and Scottish heritage. I am an American and I can assure you @realDonaldTrump will make #Brexit happen. He will insist or cut off the EU. Watch.
