And stop generalising about the young did not want this, I know plenty of young people who voted leave.
You are conveniently forgetting we just had a Election where over 80% of the total votes cast went for parties aiming for brexit and a possible hard one too. That's 25 Million people voting for parties that intend brexit to happen. I would say that's the will of the people speaking, including the young who voted for Corbyn. If the young did not want this as you claim, then why did they not vote Liberal Democrats?

Some remainers seem to change their tune every time a vote goes the wrong way for them. They thought they'd win the referendum so didn't start moaning about the wording of the question or meaning of Brexit until after they realised they'd lost. Prior to this election, plenty of them told us that it'd be largely about Brexit when in fact the main Pro EU parties i.e. Lib Dems gained a tiny number and the SNP lost loads of seats. Now, having seen pro Brexit parties win the vast majority of votes, they're changing the argument back to the validity of the referendum and whether people understood what they were voting for. It's quite clear that whilst some remainers have accepted the outcome, many have not and will not. They'll do whatever they can to challenge, delay and undermine the process hoping that they can somehow ensure the outcome of the negotiations will be so poor for the UK that they'll finally get their way. That is how interested in democracy they are...
