JUST a short letter replying to James Wilson in last week’s edition (Warrington Guardian, October 4).

Get on with what exactly?

Yes there was a vote in June 2016 but democracy doesn’t stop, or there would be no more elections.

James Wilson argues last week we should ‘get on with it’ and stop fear being spread.

Sharing concerns and facts about the future of the country isn’t scaremongering but our democratic right.

I would ask get on with what exactly? There are so many versions of Brexit, one could even say more than 17 million individual reasons?

There are also major issues like the Irish border and citizen rights both here and abroad which were not properly discussed more than two years ago.

Around 100 years ago the suffragettes didn’t give up their fight for the vote, and the same with those fighting for civil rights for all in the US in the 1960s, and the same with equal marriage and pride more recently.

I personally believe the people’s vote is needed, as parliament is divided on the way to approach Brexit more than two years later.

We need more democracy not less to fix our divided country.
