varian, I wish our politicians had the guts to do it but I doubt they will. When we get the second vote there should be only 2 choices on the paper - stay with the EU or accept May's deal. 'No deal' should not even be talked about now. They are spending millions on a 'no deal' scenario which is highly unlikely to materialise. I have to wonder who has shares in these companies and which Party's donors will rake it in. One thing I am sure of is that if we are insane enough to deliver a 'no deal' it will be the ordinary person who will pick up the bill.

No just get on with it. We voted to leave and haven't changed our minds.

No, don’t! It is what we voted. For. Back off and realise your side lost!

Parliament should feel under no obligation to accept the Withdrawal Agreement. It can legitimately vote to revoke Article 50, and retain the UK’s status as an EU Member State. The result of revocation is that the UK will be able to reconsider its position on Brexit. The Court’s judgment insists that revocation is unconditional and unequivocal. The Court emphasised the ability of a Member State to change its mind.
