I'm not going saying they were promised good economic outcomes and that was a lie. What I'm saying is they were told they could keep up trade as if nothing changed, which is a lie because of the need for renegotiation. They were told they would be allowed free movement while controlling their own borders, which is a lie as the EU requires reciprocity for free movement. The "leave" campaign sold a whole lot of snake oil leading up to the vote.

I tend to go along with Dahl and the criteria he places for a democracy. One of them is an enlightened citizenry. If they're being lied to about what the referendum would do, does that not bring up questions about how democratic that process is?

Wales voted for Brexit just like England

Should we null and void the election of a POTUS if he fails to deliver Campaign promises? Seems it's the opposition's responsibility to educate the citizens prior to the vote.

To be honest I cannot see why any American would want to England to go against the vote of its people. Is it because the Conservatives won? Now I could see our good friends from Europe wanting a re-vote. It's amazing that we heard all these bad things that will/may happen to UK if they exit, but the rest of the EU wants them to stay.
