Aye! I perceive it as a price that lotsa English "oldie voters" see it worth paying. Having observed and listened often enough to this kinda extreme theme re exiting the EU, the observed factor was the predominant same "oldie" age group, many of whom professed that they are not stupid and always knew what they wanted!! In that case were they "brainwashed" and by whom?? We need another democratic referendum pronto to finally "put this crisis to bed"!!!

It took 354 days to get a referendum in 2016, it will probably take another year to get another referendum.

I don't think the majority of older voters were brainwashed, you've got to remember when we entered the common market in 1973 and had the referendum in 1975 those "oldies" as you describe them would have been young and they would have seen the common market evolve and change into its current form and what it is now. What Ted Heath signed Britain up to in 1973 isn't what now exists. In 1992 John Major didn't give a referendum on Maastricht and Blair/Brown didn't give a referendum on Lisbon either. If Major, Blair/Brown had given referendums on Maastricht and Lisbon I very much doubt we would have signed up to them.

You do realise even if we have another referendum on the matter, the matter won't go away, the genie is out of the bottle and it won't go back in.

What happens if there is a 2nd referendum and it's Leave again? Do we have a 3rd? a 4th? Does the same happen with Scottish politics and independent referendums. The Scottish indy referendum has split and divided Scotland just like the EU referendum has done for the UK. You also have to remember that 37% of Scottish people voted Leave.

Your party the "SNP" are a one trick pony. The SNP are anti-English and also anti-unionist, there only topic of conversation is going independent and leaving the United Kingdom. The only policies the SNP have is leaving the UK and joining the EU again that's it!. The way I see it there is no difference between the SNP and UKIP. SNP are Nationalists who want to leave the UK and UKIP who are pretty much irrelevant want to leave the EU.

The SNP are failing on education, healthcare and public services and also why does the SNP give free university education to EU students but not English students who want to study in Scotland? Racist? Also if your party concentrated on these matters instead of worrying what to call Gingerbread Men then you wouldn't be in such a mess.
