Clive Myrie hit out at the former deputy prime minister’s stance and said the public did not “seem convinced” by the proposal of a second referendum on Britain’s exit from the European Union.

The Lib Dems have put a second vote on Brexit in their manifesto which was launched on Wednesday.

Tackling Mr Clegg’s position on Brexit, Myrie highlighted the party’s performance in the recent local elections, which saw large gains for the Conservatives.

He said: “The fact is the British public don’t seem convinced. It does feel like a do-over to them, the idea that there should be a second call on all this and it certainly hasn’t helped you in the local elections. Disaster really." Nick Clegg insisted a second Brexit vote would not "repeat" last year's debate

The former Lib Dem leader tried to hit back and said: “Without sounding pedantic, it’s not a second, it would be the first referendum on what the actual deal looks like.

But Myrie jumped back insisting it was not a clear proposal for UK voters.

He said: “You need to be very clear about that don’t you, that’s the problem.”

Not finished yet, Mr Clegg attempted to defend the option, claiming Brexit voters did not know what they had voted for.

He said: “We’re very clear about the fact that this is not repeating last year’s debate. It would be the first time that we would be able to compare a concrete proposition because remember the Brexiteers, very cleverly, if very cynically, claimed that Brexit would give us £350 million for the NHS.

“That was actually the only concrete claim they really made and that’s disappeared in a puff of smoke.

“They didn’t really actually set out in any great detail what it meant in practice.”

Meanwhile, the Lib Dem’s election campaign spokesman has claimed British voters “have never had a referendum on Brexit”. 
Sir Ed Davey insisted nobody had an understanding of what the historic European Union referendum, held last June, actually meant.

On Wednesday, Tim Farron and the Lib Dems launched their election manifesto promise for a final vote on Brexit.

Positioning themselves as the party of Remainers, they offered Britons a chance to reverse Brexit and challenge the “extreme Brexit” offered by Theresa May, which the Lib Dems claim will “wreck the future for you”.
