and julian dunkerton, who hasjust remarried, has given £1 million. many opinion polls to show that people in britain want another chance to vote for brexit. 0f people in britain want another chance to vote for brexit. of course both tory and labour parties are against this. whether it ever takes off... but you can do quite a lot with £1 million if you use it cleverly. we had a representative from people's vote in a minute ago andi from people's vote in a minute ago and i was asking him this. many people watching this will say it is a multimillionaire trying to deny the will of the people and we had a referendum so why do we need a second? there may have been multimillionaires on the other side of the event as well who may have put money in. that is the subject of several inquiries. people are justified in spending their money how they wish. and there does seem to bea how they wish. and there does seem to be a groundswell of opinion that another vote would be a good idea. it has been a total catastrophe. the way this government has handled this. i don

now it's been given a boost — a £1 million donation by the businessman, julian dunkerton.that this brexit is going wrong, if they think it's being botched, if they think that the politicians are making a mess of it, they have every right to demand that they take back control of this brexit and have a people's vote. parliament would have to pass a law for there to be another vote. the government has repeatedly ruled that out. for now, labour is not backing the idea either. and it's a prospect that incenses brexiteers. the only poll that counts is the referendum and people voted to leave. counts is the referendum the people's vote talk about democracy. actually their declared intent is to overturn the democratic decision of 2016, to leave the european union. they want a second vote only to remain in the european union. time is now running out to do the deal. brexit secretary dominic raab will go to brussels again this week for further talks. much is still to be resolved. britain's relationship with the eu will be once we leave. negotiations are still ongoing. both sides are
