So because of something Farage said you are using that as an excuse for trying to overturn the result?  Campaign all you like to re-enter the EU, but if democracy is to be served the referendum result has to be enacted.

According to Farage leavers would have fought it. "In a 52-48 referendum this would be unfinished business by a long way. If the Remain campaign win two-thirds to one-third that ends it." https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-eu-referendum-36306681

We have had a three year war of attrition to try to overturn Brexit.  W hy don't you just admit that Remoaners had no intention of accepting the referendum result from the moment it was announced?  Do you think if Remain had won that we would have argued for three years to try to accommodate the losing side?  Like hell we would.  Future elections are going to be an eye-opener for the political ...

I knew the Gina Miller would be one you bought up :-D First 2 are about the same thing, the Gina Miller case which was "submitted that the government could not trigger Article 50 and begin the withdrawal process without first giving parliament a free vote on the issue". That was the case not to stop Brexit although she was hoping parliament would but that wasn't what the court case was about. ...

Almost three years ago Nigel Farage said that if the result of the referendum was 52/48 to Remain then the closeness of the result would be ‘unfinished business’ and that pressure for a second referendum would grow. I wonder if he and other likeminded souls still think that way ..... www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/nigel-farage-wants-second-referendum-7985017

Here are a just few I found instantly on Google.  Whilst some of these actions are cloaked as procedural challenges, the real reason for the action is abundantly clear; stop Brexit at all costs. https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/782086/gina-miller-brexit-court-parliament-sovereignty https://www.law.ac.uk/blog/gina-miller-my-battle-against-brexit/ ...

" How many court actions have there been to stop Brexit?  There's been so many that I have lost count." How many? I don't remember one. Will the shitstorm being the same as the walk to leave?

Well this is the whole problem, people who can't accept the democratic will of the people. 3 years wasted by democracy deniers. I thought the Soviet Union was gone, but communism is still holding us back.

The facts are that Remoaners inside and outside of parliament have pulled every trick in the book to overturn the referendum result.  How many court actions have there been to stop Brexit?  There's been so many that I have lost count.  Some people even went to the Irish courts to try to get the Irish government to intervene to stop Brexit.  We've also had the nauseating spectacle of British ...

I'm only ever polite in my posts (as I am on all social media) and stick to facts (remember what those are?) even though the childish use of "Remoaners" constantly really gets on my nerves. Once you have to start with the ad hominem attacks then you have failed.
