COULD A SECOND REFERENDUM BE HELD?

Vernon Bogdanor argues (HERE) that a second referendum could be held if the EU itself becomes a different organisation to the one we have just voted to leave and he says there is evidence some leaders get the message British voters have just sent.

The British contribution to Europe was always to insist that rhetoric is subordinated to reality. Realism is now desperately needed if the European project is to be rescued from the elitist and technocratic establishment which currently dominates it, and which is losing it the support of its people. Perhaps if EU leaders listen to what citizens are saying, it might even be possible to persuade the British public to have second thoughts in a second referendum.
