I've wavered on it.
However no way do I want to go through that again.

Best just back the PMs agreement now and get on with things after that.

Totally agree Joey. I wanted to remain but I don't think voting again is particularly democratic and if the result changed, I think that would be more damaging to us as a country. We need to get it done now.

And trying to rush through a deal isn't going to damage us?

Less damage than the risk of leaving with no deal, yes. Less damage than the anarchy and unrest that will happen if they overturn a democratic vote yes.

What annoys me more than anything is our MP's all playing politics even at this late stage than thinking about our country. OK, so its not the ideal deal for everyone, but this is our country's future now we are talking about, not in 5 years, not in 10 years, not in 50 years. To suggest that any deal agreed now cannot be changed in the future is misleading the British people and doing us a very great disservice.

Corbyn, the ERG, the remainers, should all back this country's future now by agreeing the deal, or forever be held responsible for their intransigence

7/10 chance now of a second referendum

Yes I keep coming back to that. Literally ANY deal is better than no deal and - assuming we are indeed leaving - the sensible option is to take the deal that's there, get some breathing space, and go forward. The terms of any deal can always be renegotiated in future! There's this image being pushed that if we take a deal, "That's it" forever which is obviously totally false .

Yeah,This isn’t even THE deal.It’s just the withdrawal agreement that lets us start the real negotiations.
As you say,Anything can be changed during the future partnership negotiations if both sides agree.

Parliament needs to pull their fingers out and stop pissing around now.

I don’t think there’s any way this is going through though.

There’s Corbyn and his cronies who just want to disrupt anything that’s Tory related.
Then the likes of Ree-Smog and the ERG who may or may not get cold feet and vote in favour of this.
Then Soubry and TIG who will never ever vote for any deal and the same with the Lib Dems.

Theresa went to Europe and got some ‘legally binding assurance’ that the backstop can be time limited.That could possibly change the stance of the ERG but if the last vote result is anything to go by.That won’t be enough.

I do think a second Referendum would be good for one thing, and that's to have a choice on if you want a Hard Brexit or a Soft Brexit and see which way the people vote.
