Was das britische Unterhaus da gerade abzieht ist zwar höchst unterhaltsam, aber nicht wirklich relevant. „Die Entscheider“ sind sich einig. Sie lehnen eine zweite Befragung der Briten zum Thema Brexit strikt ab. Aus unterschiedlichen(?) Gründen kommt ihnen der Brexit zu pass!
„…I don’t think another vote would be possible because it would be very unfair to the people that won. They’d say” ‘What do you mean, you’re going to take another vote?’ So that would be tough.

There was no reason for that to happen. They could have had the vote and it should have gone smoothly and unfortunately it didn’t….
