I disagree Pat.
If the Remainers accept that we decided to Leave, so there is a no double or quits and what any 2nd ref would be about would be "what kind of leave" I think most would say OK.
The vast majority of Leavers voted to leave - quite simple. We did it with the warnings of Project Fear ringing in our ears, so whilst we might not have believed it, we were certainly aware of the potential for a contraction following a vote to leave.
Having voted to Leave, we knew that Article 50 would be invoked ( we were told immediately) giving us until June 2018 to sort out the arrangements.
They've had an extra 9 months.
If they can sort out an acceptable arrangement, fine. If not, we leave.
I do not know a Leave voter who would not have accepted that at the time of the referendum or now.
So in a 2nd ref if we had:
Would you prefer to leave the EU under the deal arranged by HM Gov
or
Would you prefer to leave the EU without agreement.
I'd go for that 2nd referendum.
