    And jellied eels mate ....fahsounds of 'em.

    I dare say those figures are nothing more than the mischievous fabrications of lily-livered remoaners.

    If you took the audience reaction as representative, you would begin to think that the Leavers are growing in number and in the degree of their anger. I really, really, really would not want to go into the next election supporting Remain openly or even having a suspicion about me that I wasn't going to honour the referendum.
    Anger perhaps, but not number.

    Every poll in 18+ months thinks we were wrong to leave. Even after BJ got elected, it's 48-41 saying it was the wrong decision.

    In 18 months, there have only been a couple of ties and a couple of 1% would vote to leave leads. All the rest, and all the statistically significant ones, and the rolling average of all of the, shows more want to remain that leave. For 18 months.

    They might be getting angry as it's not working out as they hoped, and their dolchstosslegende is starting. But enough people have seen how bad it's going to tip the balance.

    Why do you think no Brexiter wants a 2nd vote? If they thought they'd win, they'd call one.

    Firstly, if we have learned anything over the past 3-4 years it is that you should take polls with a grain of salt. Secondly, Brexiters - quite rightly - don't want a second vote because they won the first one and it has yet to be implemented. You can read all you want into it but if you were in the same position you would feel the same way.

    I would not under-estimate the anger felt by Leave and it's propensity to spread to those who either didn't vote or voted Remain but were not strong Remain voters. I voted Remain and I was ready to chin Thornberry, the SNP muppet and the Lib Dem slag last night such was their arrogance and the stupidity of their arguments.

    If there is another referendum I am likely to change my vote, and I strongly suspect I am not alone.

    I think that's kind of the point. Not advocating a second referendum, but I am quite sure a lot of people will change their vote in either direction.

    This thread is generally nonsensical. In the event of a second referendum, most people would agree with the result.

    The one thing a second referendum might do is give people a chance to make it clear we couldn't give a **** about the Irish.
