This exact thing would've been happening had we voted to remain and half of the people lambasting these protesters would've been protesting and screaming about a second referendum themselves. And Farage would've peddled his 'in a 52/48 result this is unfinished business' even more, it's funny how that's just been forgotten now he got the result he wanted?

It is pure hypocrisy Jack, nothing else.
You are right, Farage was already gearing up on the results night when ti was thought leave had won by the same margin.
He was starting to blame the extended deadline for people to register to vote as one reason remain had won.
There would have been a never ending lists of things from likely most on the leave side,some there would have 'never' accepted that result and would have been screaming night and day for another referendum.
With the attitude of some on the leave side there is no way anyone in power will be able to again unite this Kingdom.
Every day I find myself more turned off by their endless gloating and put downs to those who voted remain.
What is worse however are the truly horrible minority who helped the 'leave' side win, who 'are' racist and xenophobic, who are now setting out after this result to make immigrants lives really unpleasant now and even feeling threatened in the UK.
Those kind of people are the threats to democracy not peaceful marchers worried about their futures.
Also, who knows that those on this march today did not vote anyway, more guesswork and supposition to fuel prejudices.
