Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair has long been urging for a second Brexit referendum, calling on the Parliament to vote down any withdrawal deal between Brussels and London, and thus let the UK citizens decide, as there is a downside to whatever option they choose.
Tony Blair has come under fire from Tory Brexiteers after he told the Institute for Government think-tank that a second referendum on Brexit would be a “healing process”, and the only way to decide the UK’s fate.
Earlier this month, The Telegraphreported that Prime Minister Theresa May was considering giving British lawmakers a vote on whether to hold a second referendum in a bid to break the Brexit impasse.The EU has warned that London must hold elections to the European Parliament in May, or leave on 1 June without a deal.
