A woman can try to see that the parliamentary sovereignty that several leave voters protested to love so much is formally utilised to enact the process of withdrawal, and she receives death threats. And in a demonstration of bewildering irony that so many Brexiteers are blissfully unaware of, they demand that people 'respect democracy' whilst simultaneously criticising any protest, petition or verbal or written declaration of opposition - because of course democracy begins and ends with an electoral vote.

The political climate that's been created in the last year is ****ing terrifying. Nobody would accept this if the result had gone the other way, and quite rightly.

Jack_ you are amazing.

I feel little need to say much at all because you not only list my thoughts but expand on the points of things too.

I agree,the referendum campaign last year was the ugliest,sometimes scary and worrying campaign I had come across.
It has not got better since,as you say, either.

The intolerance is unbelievable at times and all it does for politics and in fact for the UK overall is drag all down.
It really is,in my view,I stress my view,and should be really worrying.
