That's a pretty bad comparison so I don't know why you'd want us to imagine it. The reason for why it has taken this many years isn't because the Stay-side has refused to accept defeat but because the Brexiters has failed spectacularly in going through with Brexit. Perhaps if the Leave-side had had an actual plan and its leaders hadn't fled the field like cowards once the results was in, things had gone differently. Truth is though that they have had three years to come up with a solution but have not gotten anywhere.

Not allowing people to vote for Brexit again is like cancelling a general election because the ruling parties has yet to fulfill all of the promised reforms.

He actually has valid point in comparison to the others trying to make false equivalencies between a real democratic (elections/referendums) mandate and a non-democratic (parliament) mandate ... 

It's very clearly the stay-side's fault that their holding the public hostage by not implementing the result. There's ~400 MPs who are actively trying to sabotage a direct democratic mandate and aside from the SNPs, many of them are of the toxic and bitter legacy of the blairites/thatcherites who refuse to own up to the results ...

Most brexiteers and especially the leaders are not the ones being indecisive and desire no deal most of all but it sucks that the parliament can't contemplate the only realistic option and instead keeps deciding to tyrannically delay implementing the result ... 

It's very clearly the stay-side that needs to stop being on the fence and decide what sort of way they want to leave ...
