For Dobbs, there is no going back on the referendum path.

A demonstration in London last weekend campaigning for a second referendum on Brexit attracted 700,000 people, according to the demonstration organizers.

This is the largest demonstration in London since an anti-Iraq War rally in 2003, and was larger than the anti-Trump demonstration this summer when the U.S. president paid a flying visit to London.

Despite this unease at Brexit, Dobbs backs certainty as a path forward rather than a fork in the road, which a second referendum would represent.

"A second referendum would be hugely unhelpful, because it would simply prolong the uncertainty," said Dobbs, adding "I would still expect a Brexit win in the second referendum and if it didn't, it would only lead to demands for a third referendum; the uncertainty would continue forever, and it is uncertainty in politics that can often do the most damage."

"How can people get on with their lives? How can businesses get on with their business? When the constants are uncertainty, what people want is stability and certainty," he said.
