The UK voted to leave the EU with nearly a 52% majority.
The minority want to put the UK through a repeat referendum as they did not get their way but where does this stop?
Everyone in the UK had a fair opportunity to have their say and the majority of nearly 4% were in favour of leaving EU.
We must respect the decision of the British public and look forward to a fresh future as a more independent and stronger Britain.
We must not keep holding referendums when a clear decision has been made.
