This is a post about both sides of the debate because frankly I think people from both sides have displayed appallingly.
I voted remain and I'm crushed. However this petition going around now is rediculous. You can't enact something after a referendum and apply it retrospectively. The law doesn't work that way. Democracy has spoken, we will leave.
But also why do so many leavers think that 'remainders should stop complaining because of democracy'. Umm democracy doesn't mean that you can't be disasatisfied with the outcome and vocalise it. I didn't realise we no longer had freedom of speech as wel???
My dd's aunt had just told her on Facebook that she's 'too young to understand the eu so shouldn't have voted' after complaining about remainders being upset and saying they should accept democracy. Telling my daughter that doesn't seem very democratic.
And all the stuff about xxx shouldn't have a vote because they are too xxx. It's frankly bloody disgraceful from both sides.
