Re: Unlikely now anyway

Both Tory and Labour supporters were split approximately down the middle on Brexit,

so to claim that combining votes for Labour and Tory counted as an 80% mandate for Brexit is a gross distortion and disingenuous.

There were many die-hard Tory supporters who would rather allow Brexit than allow Labour into Govt, but that doesn't make them a Brexit supporter, it just means they hated Labour more than Brexit.

And the same held on the Labour side, who hated Tories more than Brexit.

The rest in the middle were just left confused, disappointed and still not believing that any kind of democracy had been sensibly served.
