Default Plenty of time to reverse the decision.

A general election might produce a government with a mandate and
authority to invoke article 50.


Then again the new government may declare the referendum to be the
ill-conceived nonsense that it clearly is.


If they are stupid enough to try that, the voters will **** them over
very comprehensively indeed the next time they get to vote and will
elect quite a few UKIP MPs and any party but Corbyn's knows that.
And since Corbyn hates the EU, even he wouldn’t be that stupid.
It is certainly possible that his replacement might be tho. Boris
aint that stupid.


Things are not a clear as you make out. people voted leave for a lot of
different reasons, and depending on what happens in the next weeks and
months they will change their minds:

Voted for immediate departure? that isn't going to happen
Voted to stop immigration? You are going to be disappointed
Voted to end free movement within UK and EU? Can't be done.
Voted to fund the NHS with the mystery billions? You were had.
Voted because you are patriotic and royalist and believe in the UK? You
made a big mistake.
Voted because you want to strengthen democracy? Now watch someone else
choose a new government

Voted because you thought Boris and Nigel were honest and trustworthy and
could deliver on their promises? You may realise you have been made to
look a right Charlie and you may want to hold them to account in the
coming general election.

See?


You have 2 hopes of that - no hope and Bob Hope.
