Soldato
What's the alternative here? We, whatever you may think of Cameron's decision, had a referendum which was sold to the British people as we will leave the EU or remain in the EU, and we - in our great and collective wisdom - decided to leave.
We can argue about how dumb that was but it doesn't make much difference, we had that vote. How can we not respect that vote without doing permanent and lasting damage to public perceptions of democracy?
Unless there is material change of circumstances, I don't see how we can do otherwise than leave the EU.
a material change of circumstances like the best the ne PM campaign can negotiate is EEA membership with freedom of movement, adherence to all relevant EU laws and a massive financial contribution to the EU?
I seriously doubt that if the choice on the ballot paper had been remain a member of the EU or accept the above scenario we would have seen a leave majority. I think it would be criminal of our politicians to sign up for a version of the above scenario without consulting the people as it isn't what either side voted for!
