This is what Nigel Farage said about a 2nd Referendum when he thought Remain were going to win and if the difference in the vote was as close as 52%/48% "The question of a second referendum was raised by Mr Farage in an interview with the Mirror in which he said : "In a 52-48 referendum this would be unfinished business by a long way.
