That's the problem really isn't it. The split in Parliament roughly represents the split in public opinion and thus, there is no mandate at all for any drastic action. So the only options are to consider the whole thing an "inconclusive poll" and leave things as they are, or go for the middle ground which is to leave but with a deal as close to full customs union as possible. .

Well I suppose as there has already been a referendum and the result was allegedly leave, then a renegotiated deal would be the only democratic option. Not sure how 'soft' that is but if it protects the Irish then that's right and fair in my eyes.

Personally, I'd revoke A50 and say get a deal together that can pass and then we'll put it to the public; deal or remain. There are too many terrorists desperate to force us out on a disastrous no deal, to leave it hanging in limbo like this.

What I think should realistically happen, is that we still get a deal together and it has to go back to the public regardless. The illegal campaign and lies of the leave campaign should guarantee that the public get a final say.

The referendum wasn't given to Moses on top of mount sinai, it was then, and has always been advisory.
May wasn't a Brexit champion, neither was her right hand man Hammond, they're both remainers. They both used their power to derail us.

Now we have a leaver in charge, he's a dictator, he's a liar, he's horrible, he's a baffoon, he's probably a bigot, a racist, a homophobe, a transphobe, a sexist, a misogynist and he must be stopped.

When actually all Boris is doing is trying to implement the vote of 2016.

All Boris is trying to do is please the elites he serves. He's no hero of the people.

Leave was campaigning to exit with a deal. Anything less is a betrayal of 2016 vote

Not that I think their lies should be rewarded

This is probably the most realistic outcome, which I hope ends up happening. I'd love to remain, but doing so would just cause more trouble, the vote was basically nearly a 50-50 split, so the deal is probably the best option.

Boris is offering you the chance to vote remainers into government right now, but Corbyn doesn't want to.

Well, I'm sick of Brexit, but its quite an important thing, so I don't think rushing it because its no longer a popular topic is a good idea. I think it's more realistic that we're gonna take the deal, which is probably the 3rd best outcome.

Business doesnt want no deal
Read business representatives statements and watch the pound.

Charley was a mess as a human being but absolute gold as a housemate, Alf. I wouldn't go out for a coffee with any of my favourite BB alumni.

...I think this is the only ‘ideal’ option now ...it’s not really ideal at all but it’s as ideal as it could possibly be so that we don’t find ourselves in this place again in the future...well, so that future generations don’t...this should never have been a people’s referendum vote ...A decision that could compromise the Good Friday Agreement and the peace times that people have been able to live under in recent times...was played with in a game of politics and put to a people’s vote, without those people being given full understanding of the weight of their vote...what it would mean to the lives of some..?...it’s sickening beyond words...
