2nd Ref would likely be another knife-edge vote (unless leave voters are disillusioned and don't bother to vote) so divisive. The MPs supporting it have convinced themselves it will be a remain result this time, and everything will be okay, but there is a high chance it won't work out like that.

No to Scottish independence. That would be adding more chaos to chaos.
Agree

I think they should hold a series of votes on possible different outcomes - Norway model, Canada+ or whatever, EEA membership, No Deal - and see what has most support. Hold the votes twice if need be including an amended May deal until parliament realises they need to back something and there's a majority
