No need to “assume” the publicised outcome was a Hard Brexit. Fair enough you can allow it once. But then when you realise the ways the vote has gone. Then what the outcome would be, why be passive on two further occasions? Sorry but that is not “reasonable”
[wuotez]Similarly it’s not unreasonable to invoke A50 assuming a competent government would guide the situation.[/Quote]
I think May has brought forward a very competent proposal. Her downfall however is that she has tried desperately to deliver something that pleases everyone, and that is not possible.
Nobody could have delivered anything any better, but that doesn’t matter because nobody could deliver a deal that would work, certainly not Corbyn.
There is much. Wrong with the May deal, but if she manages to resolve the backstop, it does has a realistic chance.

However, it’s also not unreasonable for Parliamentarians to vote as they please. They stand on manifestos that aren’t binding.

I am happy for that to be put to the electorate, because after the last two years and seeing the way the EU have pretty much just treated us with contempt. I wouldn’t be sure of the massive swing to remain people think is there. A second referendum is a massive risk. It a no win. If Remain lose it - that’s is, no coming back. RemIn win it ( it will only be by a Narrow margin) cue several more years demanding another referendum.
