Systems of democracy require legislators to vote often, frequently on the same issue several times. For instance, in the UK a bill has at least a first, second and third reading.
In a direct democracy, where voters take on the role of legislators, voters are certainly expected to vote on the same subject more than once.
Of course, the UK isn't a direct democracy. And that is exactly the problem. People in the UK generally don't understand how direct democracies work, and forgivably so since there's no constitutional law regulating direct democracy in the UK, only subjective feelings.
