Re: Brexit

I must confess that I'm struggling to understand this idea of having a 'peoples vote' on which type of Brexit deal the Government eventually manages to get us.

Does this mean the Government can actually agree 3 or 4 different leaving scenarios all accepted by the 27 EU Countries and then we pick which one to take?

Alternatively, does it mean that the EU throw 3 or 4 deals at us (none of which are attractive) and we choose the best of a bad bunch?

Seems to me that either way just creates more excuses for divisive unrest because the losing 3 out of 4 will organise more protest marches, petitions, accusations etc etc.

You can't win them all . . . there are winners and losers, always have been. If you win that's great, if you lose you try harder next time.
