    2 things

    1: you srill don't take account of more than a quarter of the electorate not voting at all at the referendum when you talk of treason. The biggest majoriy of the electorate did not want to leave ie the remainers plus non voters against the leavers. I didn't vote myself but I certainly didn't want to leave under the tory party. Maybe others thought the same who didn't vote. If we left even now under the tories I would be pissed off. Then you might say why not vote remain. I didn't want to do that either i wanted more choice. I feel I had a right to a further choice because to me it wasnt a binary option.The referendum was flawed as far as I'm concerned and it could be that a quarter of the electorate agreed with me.

    2. The ruling by the supreme court was made at a time when more people are for remain than leave.

    Times have changed since the referendum. The referendum was 3 years ago. Things have moved on. Voting intentions have changed. THe world is a different place. It is stupid to base the will of the people now on something that happened 3 years go.
