text: politics former british prime minister tony blair says uk voters have to build the capability to mobilize and to organize against brexit 
  former british prime minister tony blair says britain should keep its options open on whether or not to leave the european union until after brexit talks with the bloc are completed 
  during an interview on friday with bbc radio s today program blair described the eu referendum as a catastrophe and said uk voters should be given the option of a second eu referendum 
  britain should not withdraw from the eu until it becomes clearer how brexit would impact uks economic social and cultural future blair said 
  the bizarre thing about this referendum is that we took a decision but we still dont know the precise terms he said theres got to be some way either through parliament or through an election possibly through another referendum that people express their view 
  the former premier who was in office from  until  said it should be possible for the public to switch their verdict if it becomes clear the alternative negotiated by prime minister theresa may is going to be worse 
  blairs argument contrasts sharply with that of may who has repeatedly said that brexit means brexit and that shell respect the referendum result blair had argued that britain should stay in the eu before the referendum 
  economic growth in the uk is expected to slow significantly next year due to uncertainty over of the brexit vote 
  experts have warned that leaving the eu will severely hurt londons position as a financial hub unless the uk decides to keep its access to the single eu market by loosening its stance on immigration 
  if the uk loses its access to the eus single market the resulting increase in the costs of doing business and exporting to the eu would hurt britains competitive position in europe loading
