EDITOR, The Tribune.

The referendum was a paid for by public funds just as an election is. All registered voters were eligible to vote just as in an election.

The fact that the Prime Minister does not like the result of the referendum is immaterial. He cannot ignore the result. What will he ignore next that he does not like, the results of an election?

Only a court of law can invalidate an election and then only for good and valid reasons in law.

The voters voted NO in the referendum, their vote has not been invalidated by a court of law. Any act passed by Parliament attempting to turn the voters No into a yes is invalid unconstitutional and void and any action taken under such act is illegal.
