Quote:That or Parliament calls a vote, enough Tory MPs cross the line to vote stay and overrule the referendum.

I think a much better choice would be not to simply overrule the referendum, but instead to put it back to the voters but this time in the form of a parliamentary election. Then when the pro-EU forces win, they can claim a mandate. If parliament simply votes to ignore the referendum, that would provoke an extreme reaction from a large part of the public.


You're from over there, tell me, could the Liberal Democrats run on a platform like "we are offering a third way" which would be EU reform coupled with staying in the EU? It seems like a prime opportunity for politicians who had no role in the referendum in the first place.
