When voting results mean nothing anymore and votings get repeated endlessly to secure the outcome just anyone, someone demands, than the very system, so-to-speak its "structural integrity", has desintegrated already.
If this were a ship, it already would be somewhere between the surface and the bottom of the sea.
Its not caused by Brexit, however, but is a fundamental design flaw that a conflict-heavy event like Brexit just has managed to reveal for the first time ever.
BTW, why not voting the way May wants to have it - and afterwards by her own logic demand that more votings are being held - now with the goal to get the result that her opponents want to see? Of course, like she does now, the others must be allowed to do as well: repeating it as often as needed to get the result wanted. Which then gives May the right to start another series of votings. And on and on it goes, giving the political elite a completely new way to justify its mere existence: "without us, there would be no votings anymore - see, you need us, therefore!"
There should be a international, binding law - amongst other significant changes to current systems - that says that any voting in parliaments and in public referendums around the world can be repeated not before lets say 10 or even 15, 20 years have passed.
The more exceptions from rules get defined, the less meaning a "rule" has, and the greater the invitation is to bypass it. Its corruption, clear and simple.
