2/ In a healthy democracy it would have been explained that the referendum was advisory. The right to oppose #Brexit would have been respected, there would have been no lies that A50 was irrevocable, no hiding of critical information & no cover-ups & complicity in electoral crime
3/ In a healthy democracy the majority of the press by circulation would not have operated as the unified propaganda mouthpiece of a hard-right faction, and the BBC would have respected its duty to inform rather than giving equal coverage to lies & facts in the name of balance.
