A second referendum is politically toxic. A majority of MPs understand that, even if their leaders have to pretend not to in order to excuse their discussions.
Do “a majority” understand that? One of the times it was voted against Labour whipped against. Hardly representative of their own opinion.

That’s an easy one, we’ve got Parliament trying to sabotage the process because it favours remain (we all agree on this point).

No deal guarantees we do not remain.

2nd referendum is probably 50/50 on the outcome.
