But.... No takie backie?

That's why people should realise, every vote is precious. The point of democracy was that the majority vote makes the decision.

That's ridiculous though. I'm part of a worker coop and we wouldn't pass even the more frivolous proposals without a 75% majority.

Different bodies need to operate on different thresholds. For your coop, it likely consists of mainly like minded people who can form a consensus easily. But for instance in the US Senate, the 60% vote threshold is hard to cross for the sharp partisan divide.

Nah, just YOLO & send it! Fuck around & find out is really entertaining for everyone except those that are impacted. The funny part is that those that are impacted are the same to those that voted. Oh no, wait, it's sad. I'm sorry for confusing the situation.

With an economy like the UK, those impacted are the whole world
