Preferred the Jones piece https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/jan/16/labour-pursue-better-brexit-deal-second-referendum-norway-plus
Personally I think a second referendum would see a more decisive vote in favour of Leave.
Some interesting content in the Bickerton piece but the headline, and the "elitist" arguement I find hugely problematic. I find it similar to the idea that if we listen to the financial advisors and MPs arguments that means we're valuing some people's opinions/votes more than the common man and what about the little guy etc. Which is usually put forward in the most manipulative way.

Not everyone will agree with the tone of this article but it sums up a lot of the concerns I have about a second referendum.
