The polls need to show an overwhelming anti-Brexit sentiment before we can risk the divisiveness of rerunning the whole awful thing.
Of course it matters what they think. Not voting doesn’t make you a non person forever.
Lets be completely honest though, that is not really a good argument against. If they had an opinion they should have voted last time. It wasn't like it wasn't abundantly clear how important the vote was.
It’s a damn good argument against if 60% or more of the country would
now vote to remain. Whether or not they voted in the referendum, they are still citizens who are allowed their opinion.
If you exclude the non voters from the last referendum then you’ll really struggle to fight Brexit.
