@Rhodesianman "before Maggie dragged us into the EU"
We joined the EU (the EEC as it was known then) in 1973. Ted Heath was our PM, [b]NOT[/b] Maggie Thatcher (she became PM in 1979).
We held an EU Referendum in 1975 and voted to remain.

@Platinum I was not addressing the 1975 referendum. I was addressing the false assertion that we are in the EU because of Maggie Thatcher.
Having said that however, I agree with you in essence. The EEC was very different to the EU of today. I don't know how I would have voted back then...........I was only six years old😉

Is it legally possible to cancel Brexit? I know that Tony Blair seems to think that it is. I suspect that he thinks so because Article 50 does not specifically mention the ability to rescind the triggering of said Article once it has been........erm triggered. Sorry for the messy syntax.
And then there's the consequences of cancelling Brexit. Not just in terms of domestically within the UK, I'm thinking more in terms of the EU itself and how we would be viewed and treated if we said:
"Sorry, we messed up. We still love you really and want you to take us back. Please, pretty please."
I'm being a tad facetious here because of all the references to divorce.
For full disclosure, I've always been a bit of an EU sceptic (actually, I've been a lot of an EU sceptic) but, I voted Remain.

@jackjjackson You don't know how right you are. See the Polly Toynbee article in the Guardian.

Isn’t there recourse for blowing off a legal referendum?@Burnley123

@jackjjackson People didn't vote for this deal, they voted for a fantasy.
You could have a referendum on unlimited sex with supermodels and I think that would win. Oh... did we say supermodels? We meant inflatable dolls. Yeah but you voted so we have to do it now. Brexit means Brexit
