That’s quite an insult.
I’m going to try and avoid the circular discussions, I think my position has been repeated enough.
However it’s a virtual certainty the politicians are trying to weasel out of this without getting the blame for doing so.
More people than ever before are mentioning “no Brexit at all” and a 2nd referendum. It’s all about softening up the public for when one/other/both happens to minimise a backlash.

Try to think jfman, thinking is so important.
I voted Remain. Leave won. Parliament voted to leave in March 2019. I merely support the democratic decisions of the electorate and the democratically elected Parliament.
Subsequently to that I only wish to see a period of time elapse for bexit to play out before it is revisited. I would prefer 10-15 years, but would live with 5 as a minimum, that’s all.
Well yes.....we would have to assess the drawbacks and benefits of rejoining at the time.
Try harder, I have to deal with your unique skill of not understanding any points put to you.
Fair enough, I look forward to you adding nothing.

Ironically you continue with your flawed understanding of what constitutes democracy and even further flawed understanding of our constitution.
Parliament is sovereign in this country. The people, or rather Her Majesty’s loyal subjects, are not. A key principle within this is that no Parliament can bind a future Parliament, and as such no Government can bind a future Government. Regardless of any advisory referendum carried out on any random date.
Your whole reason for wanting to leave is not understanding this point. Which is fine I suppose, because clearly you don’t understand the economics of the situation enough for it to be on that basis.
