I thought the same mate, bumped into my neighbour in the shop earlier. We discussed on Thursday he was in I was out ( he was apologetic about his vote) but today it was different. He said it's not looking good, de stabilised, who's leading now with Cameron going, where's the plan for the exit etc.. I said yeah it'll be tough for a bit and there is uncertainty (which I think we all knew there would be), he said well you voted for it. I told him I still would tomorrow, cause I think it's the right thing to do.. We definitely have divisions because I think this is the most strongly we've felt as a country in my memory for one side or the other. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

darbo 4,776 Posted June 26, 2016 Report Share Posted June 26, 2016 Latest from the fella who created the petition. **CAN I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE!!!*** Dear AllRe: EU Referendum Rules triggering a 2nd EU Referendum petitionThis petition was created at a time (over a month ago) when it was looking unlikely that 'leave' were going to win, with the intention of making it harder for 'remain' to further shackle us to the EU. Due to the result, the petition has been hijacked by the remain campaign. Admittedly, my actions were premature however, my intentions were as stated above. THERE WAS NO GUARANTEE OF A LEAVE VICTORY AT THAT TIME!!! Having said that, if it had not been mine, it would have been orchestrated by someone on the remain campaign. However, since I am associated with the petition and before the press further associate me with it I felt the need to better clarify my position on the issue even if it looks bad. I am it's creator, nothing more! The logistical probability of getting a turnout to be a minimum of 75% and of that, 60% of the vote must be one or the other (leave or remain) is in my opinion next to impossible without a compulsory element to the voting system. I have been opposed to the bureaucratic and undemocratic nature of the European Union as an institution privately for many years and for all of my political career. I have openly and actively lent my support to both Vote Leave and Grassroots Out campaigns - why would I do this if I wanted to remain in the EU? I am genuinely appalled by the behaviour of some of the remain campaign, how they are conducting themselves post-referendum not just with this petition but generally. The referendum was fairly funded; democratically endorsed, every vote was weighted equally and I believe this was a true reflection of the mood of the country. To my fellow leavers, now doubting their decision please keep the faith, we will be fine just stick with it. I believe what we need to do now for the good of the country; is get behind the will of the British people, unite, issue Article 50 of the Treaty of Lisbon and move forward, with the process of leaving the European Union.
