In the end there's a lot of selective interpretation of these results going on from both sides but it really doesn't say much about how another referendum would go given the turnout would be double. The country is still divided and that's the only definite conclusion you can make really

Well it's not really being selective.
As if you think all the Conservatives are pro brexit only.
Then that takes the pro brexit votes to 44%.

If you do that, you then cannot discount Labours 14% to suit too.
Most of those voting Labour want a much closer aligned brexit or in the absence of that, no brexit at all.

So the bulk of Labour votes need to be taken as a world away from Farage's and the likes of frontrunners in the Conservative leadership.

So without Labour and Conservative inclusion.
It's as was said, 40% remain Parties.
35% strongly pro brexit Parties.

Add in the other 2 usually main Parties.
You at best are left with probably 52/3% remain Parties. and 47/8 strongly pro brexit Parties.
Had only the Brexit Party and say Lib Dems stood.
That could have been what resulted more than likely.

Speaking for myself, I once said I'd never consider voting Lib Dem again.
However in the scenario I put above.
I'd have voted Lib Dem against the Brexit one for sure.
