    And it's not acceptable for millions of remain voters to feel betrayed?  It wasn't exactly a clear vote!


    It was a close vote but cancelling Brexit will re-ignite UKIP and the chances are that it will emerge as an alt-right party or a Griffinite BNP clone under Gerard Batten rather than a more mainstream and middle of the road party. Even Nigel Farage has criticised Gerard Batten for his unsavoury views. On the other hand, a fairly hard Brexit will render UKIP redundant and exhausted.




    Personally, I suspect that leaving the EU will not actually resolve all the issues that the UKIP voters are moaning about (some of them, yes). 


    I agree with this but not every leave voter was a UKIP supporter. Different people had different reasons to vote leave.
