I personally don’t mind either way, as I said before I did vote to remain. I couldn’t say how I’d vote now. I’d possibly back the May deal, because it isn’t really Brexit at all.

I’m not saying I think there should be a second referendum. I’m saying how I see this playing out with a lame duck remainer PM and remainer Parliament. If you think there’s not frantic planning for remaining but blaming someone else for it I think that’s ignoring political reality.

It’d be much harder politically to go best of five. It’d be very difficult to argue a second referendum would have an ill-informed electorate after two and a half years of this.
