Putting it to another vote is a dangerous idea. The people have spoken.
And if there was another vote that would also be the people speaking.

No it wouldn't. That would be denying the will of the people.

Referendums are denying the will of the people? Quite the leap.

Was there or was there not a referendum regarding membership in the European Union in 2016? If so, what was the results of that referendum? Now, should the government follow through on the results of that referendum?

The people are allowed to change their mind.
And people are allowed to honour the result of the 2016 Referendum.

One referendum does not preclude another. Democracy means people are allowed to change their minds.

I suppose they should have waited and had a second one just in case people changed their minds.

That would be the referendum with a 67% vote in favour of continued membership.
