>A democratic process and result.

Pull the other one. This isn't the BBC Have Your Say comments section. People won't just believe that because you've declared it so.

Seriously anyone who thinks the Brexit referendum was democratic or fair is either ignorant or naive.

And it's scandalous that the UK government hasn't properly invested everything that came out of the Cambridge Analytica scandal.

>> "Seriously anyone who thinks the Brexit referendum was democratic or fair is either ignorant or naive."

You may have a point about the fairness - the Government did pump in 9.3 million GBP to push the Pro-Remain position, in the form of a Pro-Remain pamphlet to every household in the UK. This, arguably, was hardly fair as the Leave side could not hope to match that level of expenditure to air their position, yet the people still voted Leave - go figure.
