I would vote the same way. Stay. This was all a horrible dream and can we stop it now, please.
Vote the same.
Vote the same and Chelters will go ahead.
The entire point of a referendum is that it is a ONE OFF !!
You don't keep on having them until one gives the result you want !
I voted Stay and have NOT changed my mind!
Theresa May keeps on having another go.
''The entire point of a referendum is that it is a ONE OFF'' please, please tell the blooming SNP that :D
I have seen or heard nothing that would make me doubt my initial opinion that we would be better off outside the EU. Their attitude has, if anything, reinforced that we should be part of such a corrupt organisation.
Unfortunately I didn't get the chance to vote but would've voted to stay. I agree Cloverjo about it being a bad dream!
I voted remain and will do so again .
I'd consider not getting involved to indicate it's lack of validity, but then decide they'd go with the result anyway even if every citizen who respected the last result and objected to being asked to rethink because the authorities decided it was the wrong result, stayed away; so go vote the same again as there's no real alternative option. And then I'd ask around how I could vote early and often.
Why bother voting again...your vote obviously means nothing.
To stop the government having an excuse to ignore public opinion. If they gave no excuse their disdain is clear.

Which we had in 1975.

tell that to Farage, who vowed to fight on if Brexit lost.

People call elections (eg the last one) if they don't get the result they wanted; there's no rule that says referenda can't be the same.
Canary, /// The entire point of a referendum is that it is a ONE OFF !! ///

But that related to a very different organisation. No comparison.

As Talbot says, why bother voting again when your vote means nothing?
//when your vote means nothing? //

Yes,what young first time voters make of all this I do not know.Doesn't send a healthy message out and will only encourage apathy in future elections.

One woman said last night that she 'was interested in politics but was losing the will to live'.

I suspect that kind of view is getting more embedded every day.
They don't call elections ridiculously early on a whim, only when the term ends or it's clear the government is unable to govern and the House has no confidence. Similarly referendums are not to be reheld simply because the losing voters can't accept the result. They can fight on to be part of the EU again in two to three decades time when the benefits of exit are clear to all.
It was an advisory vote there was nothing binding. People acting like our vote was the be all and end all of our place in the EU.

And i mean.. with hindsight surely it'd be easier to call this farce off?
spath, //It was an advisory vote //

No - it wasn't. The Prime Minister of the day promised that the result of the referendum would be honoured with 'No ifs or buts' - and parliament voted to trigger A50. Nothing 'advisory' about it.
