It was Theresa May's idea to have this bridge between membership and non-membership. Parliament either accepts it or they don't.

I don't see 'no Brexit' as an option. As you intimate, this threat was aimed at the 'hard' Brexiteers.

Before May's idea about a transitional arrangement, most people just thought we would be leaving, full stop. So if the Withdrawal Agreement doesn't pass, we are just back to our original expectations.

The Withdrawal Agreement has certainly succeeded in muddying the waters, but it hasn't reduced the enthusiasm of those who voted to leave.
they don't want country to fall of cliff edge OB it be utter chaos with no deal
