Free choice now says give us a 2nd referendum. By a margin three times bigger than the vote to leave.
If everyone is so sure the people want to leave then why are you running scared of asking again now we know what Brexit will actually look like?
Remember, project fear is what people with no argument against the information we have gained in the last two and a half years use as a rebuttal.

It's almost as if a mass media blitz to destabilize the Brexit vote could cause capital investors to be wary of doing business in the Kingdom.

Weird.
