There are words that I'm not using here.
And, as for figuring in voting, I am never a fan of tactical voting (it just creates things like Bregrexit, as has been discussed before) but the chronology was:
Farage says that 52/48 would be "unfinished business", assuming that it would be in the Remain/Leave direction.
A Leaver creates that pre-emptive petition. (And later says "The logistical probability of getting a turnout to be a minimum of 75% and of that, 60% of the vote must be one or the other (leave or remain) is in my opinion next to impossible without a compulsory element to the voting system.", but that might be him trying to sour his own grapes.)
Nearly a month later, we have the vote.
You participate in the thread of the moment.
News that the petition has been 'discovered' and 'hijacked' by 'Bremoaners' is posted to the same thread. But it's also all over the media, so unless you're hiding under a rock...
Some time between then and now, you've forgotten this final point, or are just trying to be annoying. But I'm assuming the former, because you're recently proven susceptible to problems in your recall and, between this and an actual real life visit to a person who is in hospital for intensive observation this week, I'm defaulting to assuming a medical blip that can (and hopefully will) get better soon. Because the alternative isn't somewhere I care to go, in either case.
Good health to you, in the future.
