    @Kieron Meehan: many of those chose not to be represented … By voting for and electing abstentionist Westminster candidates. So what they think or want can have no bearing on the brexit outcome unless their elected representatives choose to take up their seats in Westminster and take part in the debate and vote.

    Everyone can take their own view on this principal and tactic but it is my opinion that the debate and votes in Westminster concern Northern Ireland’s future and maybe taking part in the debate at least would be better than allowing the DUP to represent them and their constituents on this, effectively, constitutional issue.

Unfortunate for the North but that is the way it works. After any vote a large number of people will be left unhappy but majority rules

    @Caped Crusader:

    However, Northern Ireland. Scotland and Wales aren’t mere counties of England; they are constituent nations of the United Kingdom.

    A UK-wide referendum should have initiated another voting mechanism for an important decision such as Brexit, instead of the people of Northern Ireland and Scotland being hostage to a first-past-the-post system that favours only the interests, and/or whims thereof, of English voters

    The reason I’d advocate a 2nd referendum (and I accept that the arguments given against doing this in comments here are valid) is to ask the public if they have any confidence in their politicians to sort this absolute mess out. Also, can David Cameron be placed in a glass booth in the House of Commons during Brexit sessions?

    @David A. Murray: I wonder how a vote now would pan out. Most people under the age of 21 now did not have a vote. That could be over 2 million added to the group of people that tended to vote stay . And some of the older people have passed on and there was a greater tendency for older people to vote go.

    Interesting idea that the outcome could be different even if no one changed their vote but because the electorate changed so much.

    I fear I predicted that there would always be a Hard Brexit, that the UK is far too evenly split over remain or leave, with far too many factions in either camp, if Parliament is at dead lock, then that is just a true representation of it’s people.
    Just like the Titanic (which incidentally sank on the 15th April 1912, not the 12th as per the article) the UK’s economy is soon too go down in very chilly waters, and it will be the poorest who will suffer disproportionately.
