Brexit has showed us that special interest groups have gone out of their way to screw up the popular vote. This should have been settled months ago and for far less money. If the people want to leave, pollies should have done their duty and made it happen - right or wrong. There is no point in voting if the powers to be, ignore and bastardize the outcome. It basically means their is no Democracy at work. Its for the very select few to override the people.
It also looks like that if this political mess ends up costing hundreds of billions of pounds, the pollies could care less. Its not their money and hence this circus.
These guys held the vote because they were convinced that it would be a NO vote and they got it wrong. There was a similar issue with Trump.

Yeah, yeah.
All in the past.
British Parliament blowing themselves up.

What's next though?
Theresa May bearing the brunt of the humiliation of the British political class on her shoulders, soldiers on regardless and bashes them again with her Brexit deal?
