How can you reverse democracy by having a democratic vote? Explain how that works?

Has your goldfish memory forgotten it was you that brought polls up to try and back your point today?
Name them.
Because as far as I can see, the economy is stagnating behind the Eurozone, disposable household income is down, there's chaos over the future of Northern Ireland at the heart of matters right now, a trade deal with the US is dependant on the mood of a man-baby in the White House and is impossible with the Chequers Deal and so on.
The only 'lies' have been in terms of timing - Brexit hasn't happened yet. When it does, wait and see what happens. 'Project Fear' was simply the ridiculous tag put on experts in their fields trying to inject some sanity into the thought process of Brexit, but we live in a Donald Trump world, were expertise is treated with suspicion and stupidity is celebrated.
right - we would need an emergency budget if we voted out the very next day....
The economy would nose dive immediately the day after the Out vote ...
unemployment would spike soon after the referendum
the same forecasters stated it would be a disaster if we did not join the Euro....

It’s back down to its lowest ever level, the same as it was in 2007 before the crash.
Which to be fair still advocates free at the point of care healthcare, but says there are things we can learn from our peers in continental Europe, especially in Germany, the Netherlands and Sweden.
"Brexit hasn't happened yet" - doesn't stop the tendency to blame everything on Brexit though...
Food price going up? Brexit.
Food getting smaller? Brexit.
Company relocating? Brexit.
Of course, none of it it exclusive to Brexit and it all happened long before even the referendum was announced.
Uncertainty is hugely significant and that's why I'm not convinced on the "Wait until Brexit actually happens" argument.
Brexit has been nowhere near as bad as the picture was painted, as Cameron was 'caught' admitting;

Hate to say it, but I agree with Boris Johnson with the 'suffocated by needless self-doubt' remark. Plenty of countries thrive outside the EU...

So 'Project Fear' was simply a ridiculous tag put on experts in their field. Perhaps the Guardian didn't publish it so you may have missed it, but Carney, Governor of the Bank of England and probably the top 'expert', has apologised for getting his pre referendum forecasts so wrong.
Oi, I read the guardian and it was in there.
The UK on Brexit is naturally pessimistic and cautious, and it shows.

Only food went up (or became smaller) due to Brexit, as the pound tanking (solely due to Brexit) drove inflation, this was largely held in the supply chain for spell due to existing supply contracts, but hit the consumer after that lag period ended and the unit prices had to go up.
Companies relocating some or part of their operations into the EU area as a result of Brexit is also a fact, especially in financial services.
Concerns over the loss of the customs union meaning that supply chain delays which would massively affect shelf life of foods through to just in time factory deliveries, means that business has to plan for that eventuality, and they are doing......and the outcome would be relocation over time for plenty of them.
It’s akin to saying it isn’t pissing it down yet, merely drizzling so weather forecasting should be put in the skip
