The splintered remain supporting votes matter since those votes will never go to pro brexit parties.
I think you are right a new referendum would likely result in a remain vote.
Certainly however a solid vote against any no deal Brexit.

It would be a massive slap in the face to the bulk of the UK, those who vote and can't yet vote, if that is now ignored by any new leader of the Conservatives.

For my current party, Labour, they must now come out for a new referendum.
If it doesn't, I will need to think where I am as to politics now.
Just seen a stat on Sky news 35% Brexit, 40% remain, which is pretty good given the campaign publicity the Brexit party got over the others

if there is a 2nd ref they have to build in a clear percentage win and also that it will be binding ....if leave won a second vote I would accept it, I think people know alot more of what they are voting for now

from us dutch, our Labour party (PVDA) is the one with most MEPs in european parliament, and yes our frans timmermans is running for EC president, to try and be successor of Juncker

our nexit heavy party PVV out of european parliament and the other far right forum only 3 seats so doesn't have a majority by far against all other left parties in the MEPs for us

so no nexit for us

Doesn't matter, the Leavers are not going to accept it if they were defeated, they're just gonna say it's 1-1.

If there was another vote, leave would win by a bigger margin than last time, I'm confident of that and the country doesn't need it, just to prove me right.

labour did get battered last night, but labour have never stood for a no deal brexit, so the votes they did pick up are also in direct opposition to the brexit party. When you take that into account the anti-no deal brexit was huge compared to the votes the brexit party picked up

I just don't see how we can politically resolve the situation now without another ref

Stop smudging the figures, there is a leaning that remainers won this vote, but people are using labour votes in the count and we all know labour is split on remain and leave.



Brexit won this hands down, and considering the 40 percent turnout, I think you could say the majority of non voters would be brexit eery fed up with the lack of brexit...

And corbyn should do the honourable thing like may did and resign at the state of his party atm.

Happy with that, I don't think many remainers would have an issue if leave were to win again, that really would be the will of the people, I can't prove you right I only have one vote same as you

Anti-Brexit parties - those in favour of another referendum - collectively took about 40% of the vote, compared with 35% for the two parties in favour of leaving the EU without a deal.
