Tory MPs who voted against the Welsh Assembly in 1997 (after the referendum):
Theresa May
Iain Duncan Smith
Liam Fox
David Davis
Michael Fallon
Owen Paterson
Crispin Blunt
Graham Brady
Bill Cash
Christopher Chope
Damian Green
John Redwood
Laurence Robertson
Phil Hammond
Bernard Jenkin
Desmond Swayne
Andrew Lansley
Nigel Evans
Michael Fabricant

Here's what some Brexiteers said about the result of that referendum in 1997:

Nigel Evans: "It would have been better if the percentage majority in favour had been in double figures. That would have settled the issue once and for all, but it did not and it remains unsettled."

No-deal supporter Laurence Robertson: "a full mandate—a mandate sufficiently strong to break up the United Kingdom?...If another referendum were held in 12 months, say, it could well give a different result."

Says it all.
