"Protesters calling for a referendum on the final Brexit deal are gathering in London for what organisers say will be the "biggest, loudest and most important" demonstration of its kind.
About 30 of the coaches had been sponsored by people including Years & Years singer Olly Alexander, writer Armando Iannucci and football manager Alan Pardew."
Well played Alan Pardew

It's a vote on the deal itself what we should be voting for. For instance, if slightly over half of the household wanted Chinese for dinner, but the lesser half wanted Indian, the people who wanted Indian should atleast get to vote on what Chinese food is ordered.

So you agree any 2nd ref should not have remain as an option, only which leave deal to take?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
But what if there is no deal ?
Beyond the many lies told by the leave campaign, one of the biggest, was that these deals would be the easiest in history.
I don't recall at that time, many if any leave campaigners saying there's a strong chance, due to the government being propped up by the DUP, or the divisions within the Tory party, or just the plain fact that the EU would be strong on protecting the interests of 27 other nations, that we would leave without any deal, and simply just uave a leap of faith, that everything would be fine.

I just want us to exit the EU, if a deal can not be agreed then we have to leave without a deal.

Why ?

I’ve always been a eurosceptic.
I don’t like the idea of leaving with no deal but, when asked, the majority voted to exit the EU and I believe that result should be respected.

Does democracy = keep voting until you get the result you want?

I think it means voting on something after being given the right information.

The British people have had plenty of experience of being hoodwinked by populist political opportunists and had plenty of time to educate themselves properly on the realities of the situation and likely outcomes before the vote.
Collectively they have made a monumentally stupid decision.
It is one which will hurt the country and to an extent the rest of the world for likely many years, and they only have themselves to blame.
I have absolutely no sympathy for the morons, the same way I have no sympathy for the Yanks now suffering under Trump.

You haven’t actually answered his question though
It seems like you don’t know what you are talking about

Don't know about Pardew but Deila Smith sponsored a bus from Norwich and Dan Snow, the historian, from Southampton.
I was there as well
