Leading Brexit campaigner Nigel Farage suggested Thursday that Britain hold a second referendum on EU membership to silence those who do not want to leave the bloc. “Maybe, just maybe, we should have a second referendum on EU membership. “So maybe, just maybe, I’m reaching the point of thinking that we should have a second referendum on EU membership,” said Farage, who was one of the main driving forces behind last year’s referendum.

Prime Minister Theresa May has ruled out a second vote.
