Yes, and scrabb's point well made too. Worse too is that it will strengthen the tories and farage (righ or wrong) as voters turn their backs on labour. Despite what the papers think, it's a big deal to many Brits that one clear democratic decision is being ignored. Again, it doesn't matter what anyone's opinion on it is; a plain majority vote is an exercise in actual democracy and the way it's panned out a lesson for everyone in the uk. The losers of that vote too damn stubborn to think about the priorities as they should stand, the winners still the real losers by the look of it. The lesson is the same as in 2002; when you stand up to the govt and say what you think (then the Iraq war) what you get in response is: we will do what we damn well please. It should have been an occassion where winners and losers banded together to tell the govt do what we bloody say; the people have spoken. Instead, the people remain divided by their vested interests and democracy can go to hell when it speaks differently from me. I'm not angry with the British people.. Just disappointed
