There has already been a petition in London purporting to have a million signature calling for a second vote. I'm a cynic and a skeptic so I don't believe they actually got 1 million signature in 24 hours. I think they started this petition long before the vote.
Point is, retrogasm, that some parties are already calling for another vote.

@retrogasm: My conjecture is simply based on the nature of the beast. It's easily predictable. Too much at stake at the highest levels of power in the government/corporate/financial matrix to take "Brexit" sitting down. The usual establishment mouthpieces have already been out there explaining how a renegotiation and 2nd vote should be pursued.
@pappymac: Exactly. The "petition" story seems to have mass coverage all over the corporate media already. It is of course being sold as populism, but like you, I think this was all well planned in advance.

The petition was created in May by (ironicaly) a LEAVE supporter who thought the vote would go the other way.
The signatures aren't legit: Hundreds of thousands of signatures (maybe even over a million?) were put there as a 4chan prank. They set up autovoter bots to add millions of signatures.

Factor in the 2 years before the Brits step out, that's sounds like Sike! We were just kidding. Pound Down? Gawith down. Good for me.

Let me qualify this. I meant to write "not all of the signatures are legit." I didn't mean to imply none were, but since you can only go back and edit for a short time, once I re-read my post I realized I couldn't edit it.

Now might be a good time to visit the UK, and throw out your unnecessary clothing so you can bring back your full legal limit of Condor and Velvan.
