The act of passing a referendum requires in the act that the electoral commission decides the wording of the questions and requires fairness to all opinions
The sovereignty of parliament is not in doubt, it is the process within that that brings in the electoral commission
It doesn't require fairness to all opinions, it requires fairness to all options that Parliament chose for the referendum.
Just like in the AV referendum the Electoral Commission lacked the ability to add in STV as an option.
Exactly. Or in the 2016 referendum they couldn't put an option for Remaining without Cameron's new deal on the ballot.
You sincerely believe that now, but you won't if it looks like actually happening.
I do believe it.
Just as I didn't like the Labour wins in 97,01,05 but accepted them as part of democracy and looked toward the next election.
I would never consider the short term gain of overturning a decision I didn't like as being worth the long term damage it would do to democracy.
General elections are very strongly ingrained. The same is not true of referendums, and there will definitely be strong opposition from leavers to having a Rejoin vote any time soon. They may well boycott it if it happens.
