Time for our elected officials to grow some balls and sacrifice their political careers for the greater good. This vote was never binding. Cameron should call for a vote in the House of Commons to overrule.

Oh look, we finally can agree on something.
Somehow I feel like his support for Remain made Remain lose some votes.

Then I'm hoping for a violent revolution in that case.

Wouldn't that be taking it a bit far?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I guess it's too late for that, unless you want to risk civil unrest on a large scale. Playing april's fool with the results of the referendum won't sit well with the general electorate. I find it interesting that Britain presents the same picture as many countries these days. A society divided, by roughly 50 percent. And it's not a civilized political debate we're talking about, but the lowest instincts boiling to the surface.

You're talking to a person who just supported the exit of the UK from a powerful trading block, and was joyfully celebrating as the currency collapsed.
I don't think they know what "too far" even means.

Fair enough, good luck killing the redcoats...I guess.

Probably, but it would be the right thing to do.

It's 3 AM here, and I really want to sleep, but this is just so morbidly fascinating.
