You call that democracy? I call it tyranny.
Its also a method for those who want the status quo to remain to try to delegitimise the result simply because they didnt get what they wanted despite accepting the terms of the voting procedure and its outcome by participating in it knowing they could lose but being so sure of the slanted media support they thought theyd gamed it yet again.

As for what we're doing, we're enacting the wishes of the people who bothered to democratically vote on the direction they wanted the country to go in.
Its that simple.

If the vote had gone the other way should we have had another vote or considered it only "advisory"?
Be honest.
