Looks to me if either we will crash out no deal, or stay in no problem. The EU is hardly going to change it’s mind about no further negotiation unless we want to have more stuff about Gibraltar and fishing rights. As I see it they have us over a barrel as far as the negotiated exit is concerned.

I feel that the EU shouldn’t be allowed to do this as it looks like blackmail. However, I’ve always been a Remainer. Either way about 50% of our population is not going to be happy. What a devisive, intractable problem.

As others have said, what is wrong with a second vote, this time based on facts? If Leavers are so sure they are in the majority they have nothing to fear and surely would appreciate the confirmation. I believe a second vote is the only way to make the public accept whatever is decided. Otherwise we may well start behaving like the French.

Interesting that the front page of the Sunday Times said that the vote wouldn't happen. Wonder who/what they knew that the BBC didn't?
