Trying to blame Parliament for that is a stretch.
The backstop wouldn’t have been an issue but for TM’s reliance on the DUP.

Lib Dem Vince Cable was in favour of a referendum.
2007.
Why shouldn't there have been a referendum? Just because there were divisions in Scotland, does that mean a referendum shouldn't have been held? The Labour party isn't exactly united on the issue.
The backstop is an issue for more than just the DUP. It is the EU insisting on it. Why shouldn't the DUP object to it?
