Yes. That is essentially what Brexit campaigners did? Also i have relatively few fish in the game. I am not from UK. I understand that Brexit is an important decision BUT since it is an important decision using a 51 to 49 vote to settle it was always going to cause problems and a lot of them. There is a reason why other countries have a system in place that demands a super-majority for these kind of things. (Usually 2/3rd of the vote but it varies from place to place)
I do not think that any nation is hopeless to change; however, I think that some nations do require a lot more effort than others to become changed. - Verv

What manner of democracy are we talking about? If the forthcoming election didn't go the way I hope and want it to, do you think it would be right for me to campaign against the result and demand another election?..
