To be fair, I don't know of many people who are just saying "ignore the vote", just that there should be a second vote to confirm that it is indeed what the majority of people still want.

I do understand people's reasons for not wanting "vote after vote" (although, I personally don't think one follow up vote on such a huge undertaking as brexit is unwarranted)... HOWEVER... you can't claim that a second vote is undemocratic. If a follow up vote was to suggest that "the will of the people" has dramatically changed, then accepting that would be entirely democratic... arguably, more democratic than dogmatically accepting the outcome of one snapshot vote.
