Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!

The majority of MPs don't want to leave. By now the majority of the population don't want to leave. The EU (despite some tough talk) don't want us to leave.
All that needs to be found is a way to do it without to much egg left on faces, and without to much support transferring to ukip!
It'll just take some time.
yes quite likely that's the case too, but the story does show that when the fifth biggest economy in the world says " sorry guys we have had our hands tied, but we are now open for business" the rest of the world does not respond by putting us to the back of the queue, the opposite, they want in on it.
The fact that Junker has had to ban other EU countries negotiating with the UK says the same thing, they will all want a piece of our pie, and when pie is concerned it is first come first served.
Yes your entirely correct.
That's why nothing will be said for a while until things calm down.
If it was mentioned now there would be uproar.
We might get a brexit, but it will be in name only.
I don't know how it will be done, and I suspect no one else does. It's something for after the Tory leadership election.
The longer it carries on the easier it'll be. Like Jeremy hunt suggested leaving it till the 2020 election.
There's loads of thing that can happen in that space of time.

There was a large-scale failure of the young to turn out and vote, and I would put quite a lot of the blame for the result on them as well.
The thing is though, theres a stereotype that the young are all progressive but too lazy to vote and affect change. (insofar as this even was a progressive issue) When in fact I suspect that if voting was mandatory you'd see a lot of young people voting the same way as their parents do and the balence would turn out about the same.

Sadly @ICBM's definition of majority is not similarly enshrined in law.

I am so up in the air about the whole thing. On the one hand, I hate the way so many remainers seem to wish harm on their own country now (I work with many who cheered as the FTSE dropped to monthly lows, and not because they wanted to jump in), and they can go fuck themselves with that attitude. It is a shame for people who are genuinely concerned about the future though.
On the other hand, going back to what Cameron said in December, that the UK will of course be fine outside the EU, I still think it is short-term pain for long term gain.
So should (rhetorical question, we all have our own answers/opinions) the MPs drag the country out of the EU for the benefit of us all (and risk losing Scotland) despite the unrest, or should the back down, and say goodbye to any pretense of being an independent country.
I really wish it was at least 60/40 one way or the other.
