The only argument that makes me question my stance is the fact that the "leave" side was pushing some serious lies on people. They gave the public the impression that a Brexit would only mean they would gain back their independence and nothing else would change. They made people promises that they would gain control over their laws and borders and they would still enjoy all of the economic benefits and still be able to travel throughout the EU. Those were outright lies.

So what do you do in a situation like that, democratically speaking?

I certainly can't say if a second (wouldn't be the third?) referendum is the right thing or the wrong thing.  But as time drags on and it looks more and more like this could be disastrous for the people I don't see the issue with at least considering it.  No just fluffing it off as "anti-democratic" as if we never permitted to change anything within our voting system or the way things are done.
