It will be wait and see and end up what it is. People with the now usual mentality of I AM RIGHT AND YOU ARE WRONG will demand another vote or something about how they are the forgotten ones or what about them.
However it will be interesting to see how Corbyn handles it. Will he be meely mouthed about it? Will he just plain outright tell them to stop it and this is not in Labours name?
No he will likely go and have a cup of tea and spout about civil liberties and the right to protest ( all fine and laudable) but just because you lost and didn't get your own way!!!

There's a difference between protest and civil disobedience. I don't see a problem with people protesting the actions of a government in a peaceful and legitimate way. Even protesting over losing the vote isn't harmful if it stays peaceful and energises people to actually get involved for the next time.
Civil Disobedience is another matter altogether. Against a democratic government it's never acceptable.

As Labour voters will possibly be made up of younger voters who've never experienced Jezza's 1970s style of socialism, and it's normally younger voters who are prone to show their actions through violence, then yes, it's possible. I maybe making 2 and 2 equal 5, tho!
Please don't take the above as me thinking all young adults are violent. I meant that violent people tend to be young adults.

In this situation, 'civil disobedience' is masking thuggery in a polite phrase to justify it.
The Democratic Process is inviolate, and should be respected as such.
Having said that, there will always be attention-seeking numpties who think they can spout about such nonsense, they should be ignored. Giving them debate space confuses them into thinking that their idiocy is valid.
