Just wondering, do you think we should no longer have elections? After all, we voted one way a few years back and it would be completely undemocratic to ignore that result or see if we want a change of leadership because, in your eyes, votes are a one time thing and can never be done again.... As long as they go your way.
People voted for Brexit back in 2016, they didn't vote what kind of brexit they want. When faced with a no deal brexit, it's only fair if the people are heard in regards to what kind of brexit they want. If you have a problem with that then it's you that's 'destroying democracy' since you seem to want to strip people of their right to have a say seemingly out of fear that it won't go your way.

Remain isn't a kind of Brexit though. I just do not believe that if we had another referendum and it went in the way of Remain that we could put the last 2 years behind us and carry on as normal. If we want to go back to the EU in 10 years time, then have another referendum then and if the majority is to seek to re-join then so be it, but let us implement the result of the 2016 referendum first.
