Re: Why Brexit to begin with?

Why not have another referendum, since it was discovered that so much Russian money was behind the PR preceding the first one?

Leaving out the FUD about the Russians, the main reason is that there's no indication that people have changed their minds in significant numbers, so any new referendum would still be a toss-up, probably between 51-51 % leave to 51-52% remain. Neither of those results would actually stop the arguments, a tiny majority for remain would just prolong the agony as leavers demanded yet another referendum.
