Re: What possible delay?

"And just to throw a sop to the Brexiters, promise they can try again in five or ten years' time, once they've drawn up a feasible exit plan, gained nominal partner agreement to outlines of the requisite new trade deals and actually spent time researching and understanding the full impact of the change they wish to make."

Ha, so get remainers who want to stand there looking dumb to try and avoid brexit to do something useful? That worked out well so far. The only good news is the result of the vote could actually be respected and those anti-democratic blow hards can suggest something to die hard remainers- we leave, and if you guys can muster enough support to vote for a party willing to rejoin then you can get back in. Probably without your special opt-outs so you will be in the disaster project in full.

"Then maybe if polling shows sufficient support in the country we can splash out on another referendum"

Been done. 3 votes in favour of changing our relationship with the EU 2 GE 1 referendum. 2 of those directly resulting in leave. That would be 3-0 for leave.

"properly informed and with campaigns ran by people who've promised not to mention the war or to lie on the side of a bus or to pose in front of a poster of Syrians fleeing a war zone while describing them as Turks planning to come to Britain even though Turkey's attempt to join the EU had stalled years before."

Also no economic bollocks from the Treasury and BoE, gov, propaganda paid by taxpayers from the gov, etc. As if they could manage that.
