What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
Well. All still going swimmingly then

You're the one who is supposed to come up with the alternative, you moran!In a statement at Downing Street she said for EU leaders to reject her plan with no alternative at this "late stage of negotiations" was "not acceptable".
One of MrsL's idiot friends on FB:
No faith in the UK and what is called democracy. We have a vote and as some people do not like the result we might have another vote. This is not democracy!!!!!
Another vote would not be democratic...
That’s the clear difference.
A vote was held, that provided a snapshot of public opinion on a day. It was close but a decision was made.
Any election is a snapshot of opinion on a day of course, the difference here is we don’t get to vote again in 5 years and hold the people in power to account or change our minds if we think we got it wrong.
At the time of the vote neither side had any plan about what Brexit looked like, what deal we might get.
Now our government are making a predictable hash of negotiations there are indications that some people who voted to leave now believe that doing so would be a mistake. The result might well be different now.
There is a case for a second vote and the idea that calls for a vote are not democratic is ludicrous.
All that said, I’m not sure I want to go through all that nonsense again.
