Sure I did...with an example of how your example happens all the time. Since you cannot provide an example of a national referendum in the US you chose to correlate it to a hypothetical situation. I explained that "voting to change the law" happens all the time. And, yes, within the voting cycle. Which is what I have been talking about with Brexit all along.

It does from what I am talking about as a, wait for it....hypothetical. I know you understand those.

As we have elections every year that's kind of a moot point. Recalls, by their nature, are to remove elected officials before their re-election time.

Oh...you never said it was over...just that it had to be done because people voted and they can't vote on it again.

Sounds like it's over if you can't do anything to change it ever.

But speaking of "changing words" you keep insisting that *I* am saying their SHOULD be a new referendum. Something I never said.

In fact you completely ignore my questions about other possibilities given the difficulty they are having in putting through BREXIT. If it goes through with or without a plan I cannot control nor am I "advocating" for anything. I have discussing how government works, how future elections might effect the results of the referendum and if things COULD change in the future.

So I'm gonna say your used the right words about the wrong person:

You were correct that I misstated this though:
