@SW-User Brexit has serious implications; it's not the same thing at all. Who wins the world cup doesn't affect people's daily lives in the same way brexit will. And there was never a vote as to what exactly brexit meant. The referendum was particularly vague in that regard. Plus, no one then knew what concessions Europe would offer (or not). That's why it is important for the people to have a say on any actual deal agreed, including abandoning brexit altogether if people decide the deal made would be worse for the country.
