It was only ignored if they voted firstly not understand how parliament works, and secondly if they though they were voting FOR something. They weren’t they were voting against membership of the EU, the vote never said what would or should replace it. Turns out the only thing that could possibly replace it was Mays deal, which the ERG and DUP killed, or a CU /SM that the tories imposed their own red lines on to prevent going down that road which would have been an easy road with cross party support, again, to pacify its own extremes and the DUP.
Nothing like a PM ignoring an act of parliament.
I'm genuinley impressed by your mental gymnastics. My rather more simplistic reading of the referendum was that it presented a simple binary choice, which to date has not been enacted.

It can’t be binary if voting to leave can mean many different outcomes. From not being a member of the EU like Norway isn’t, to not being a member like Canada isn’t all the way to not being a member like the USA. Which one of those was your binary understanding of not being a member of the EU ?

My binary understanding was in or out. Hence the term binary. The debate about the type of out is certainly valid, but does not excuse eternal procrastination by those who really just want to force another referendum or remain.

I’ll ask one last time when you voted what did you think out would look like. If you didn’t think what it would look like, then that explains why you can’t understand what’s happened since.

I thought out would mean we would no longer be members of the EU. I can't really be more clear - much like the ballot paper itself.
 
More violence in Westminster.

Pro-Brexit demonstrators throwing cans at police officers and calling everyone traitors.

A small part of me doesn’t blame them.
 
The old Brexit means Brexit, or Leave means Leave then. Both completely meaningless.
thats like saying open means open and closed means closed is meaningless. They might both be statements of the blindingly obvious that shouldn't need stating, but they are not 'meaningless'
 
I don't wish to be patronising by posting pics of the ballot paper and clips of Cameron clearly stating what the results of voting leave would be - I'm sure you are clever enough to google these yourself if needed.
This isn't difficult. If we vote for a door to be shut it can only be shut or open a binary choice. If we vote to leave the EU , do we leave with a deal or without, already not binary, if we leave with a deal what should that deal be ?
How can it be possible to vote leave but have no clue about what preference from the options available you want.
I’ll simplify it for you, choose 1 from 3. Or add your own preference.
1 No deal
2 Mays WA
3 A Norway types deal

3 is the only one that makes any logical sense
