The extent to which a vote is going to be binding needs to be made extremely clear before the vote, and cannot depend on which way the vote goes. It's fine to say that "we will revote if the margin is less than 10%" before the election, but the government throws its entire legitimacy into question if it tries to say "You voted the wrong way, so we're going to pretend that it never happened."

I thought it was made clear beforehand that this vote was not binding? Am I misinformed?
