They wouldn’t be forced into anything, Brexit is about independence and being free to trade with whoever they want to. Most of those spreading doom and gloom have no real clue why, just copying what they hear others say and getting the ‘right’ result for themselves.

The petition hits 5 million!

'Cancel Brexit' petition woman receives death threats
The woman who started the record-breaking anti-Brexit petition says she is "shaking like a leaf" after receiving three death threats by phone.

Margaret Georgiadou, 77, began the Revoke Article 50 petition, which had topped four million signatures by Saturday morning.

She said she was "totally amazed" it had become the most popular petition submitted to the Parliament website.

But Mrs Georgiadou said the "horrible" phone calls left her scared and angry.

The retired lecturer says she has also received abuse via her Facebook account.

She said: "I feel terrible, I feel angry with myself because I thought I was tougher than that. But I was scared."

"I haven't even told my husband because he is very old and he would become hysterical."

Mrs Georgiadou said she created the petition to stop people "moaning" about how awful they thought Brexit was going to be.

It has broken the record for the biggest petition on the Parliament's website, previously held by another Brexit-related petition from 2016.

Mrs Georgiadou said she wanted to get as many people as possible to sign it - but she wasn't hoping for a government response.

"Democracy is ruled by society for society, not the majority for the majority," she said.

"I want it to prove it is no longer the will of the people. It was three years ago but the government has become infamous for changing their mind - so why can't the people?

"People should ask themselves, who is it that wants Brexit? It will help Putin, it will help Trump… but will it help us? I doubt it," she continued.

Since the success of her petition, Mrs Georgiadou has faced criticism over posts she allegedly made on social media, using threatening language about the prime minister. She said she had no memory of the posts.

She said: "It must have been a cut and paste job. The dates were all wrong."

"My friends thought it was funny. They have made photos of me trying to hold up a rifle with my zimmer-frame... I don't own a zimmer-frame by the way - or a rifle."

Mrs Georgiadou says she cannot attend the march for another EU referendum in London on Saturday but would welcome tributes from the demonstrators.

"I want them to sing a song for me, 'March on, march on, with hope in your heart and you'll never walk alone'."

really? who says?
Death threats come from frustrated rightwingers.
The same as calling remainers traitors, enemies of the people and unpatriotic.
That's what happens when you run out of sensible arguments

The woman who started that petition had herself wished death on Theresa May before and said that Andrea Leadsom should be put down..

Crazy times for sure

[Alf]

All the remainers had to do was win the referendum.

We wouldn't even be talking about it today, if that had happened.

There's only one side that has caused the division in this country, and that's the side that lost, but just wouldn't accept it.

OR the ones that are absolutely horrified by the results because the mess they predicted is now happening?

[Rob!]

Plus this whole thing about the 17 Million being the will of the British people is utter bollocks.

Leave: 17,410,742

Remain: 16,141,241

That's a difference of around 1.2m...which is the average ratings that an episode of Celebrity Big Brother was getting. Y'know, that show that got cancelled because of low ratings?

Also

Couldn't vote: 18,60470
Didn't vote: 12,949.258

And those last two numbers would DRASTICALLY change in the event of another referendum.

17,410,742 voted to leave. 47,694,969 didn't. That isn't the will of the British people.

[Smithy]

As if 1.2 million people who voted leave haven’t either died or changed their mind following the **** show that has been the last 3 years

Won’t accept what? The evidence is staring you in the face. Leavers being too pig headed to face facts is what has left us in this mess.

What facts are we talking about that are staring at me?

The only facts that I can see is, that the people of the United Kingdom want to leave The European Union. We were asked the question and we gave them our answer.

Are you with or against the people of the United Kingdom?

Its not scientific but I find its the leave voters I know who have changed minds too.

I voted remain, and no one as yet who I know who also did have changed their minds.
Although a great number more people I have conversed with on the EU, did vote leave so more to change their minds there.

In my own family and I had to chuckle at this.
A Cousin and his family of 7 all voted to leave.
When I asked them would they be opposed to a customs union arrangement still however.
4 of them asked what's a customs union.
We only voted fancying a change???

In my own family, there are now around 20 who voted leave, who now wouldn't either vote again in a referendum or would now vote remain.
A fair number would change as to friends and just contacts too.

If I'd known many more who voted remain, maybe I'd find remain votes changing too but thus far, no one I know of of my contacts, who voted remain would now not still vote that way
