Yeah its not 'required' - this was an advisory referendum and not legally enforceable nor is there any reason a second referendum couldn't be undertaken ... apart from a strange illogical urge by the people in power to follow this path off the cliff, the issues with the original referendum (blatant lying and abuse of funds by the Leave campaign amongst other things) have barely registered ... its all very strange ... especially when you consider the size of the protests against Leaving which have been huge in comparison to the supportive counter protests which have been attempted.
(at the very least I'd like to see a second referendum)
