BREAKING: Parliament to vote today on a second Brexit referendum

[apnu]

5. The Brexit referendum vote was huge, but they chose to make it a simple majority.

And it past with 51.89% voting to leave. Its a technical victory. There's a reason why, in the US Constitution and Congress, several things are decided by a 2/3 majority. Leaving the EU should have been that metric, but it wasn't.

As it is, many Leave voters have said they didn't understand what they were really voting for or the ramifications, and that they thought there was a clean path to breaking away. Now they regret that choice and there isn't popular will to Leave. But the conservatives in the UK are plunging forward when they clearly don't have a good consensus to do so.

Not setting a 2/3 majority to pass was the first of a thousand head scratching decisions the Tories and UKIP clowns made.
