Well there's only one way to find that out isn't there? We have General elections over a similar timescale, and people change their minds then, as they have a right to do. The implications of Brexit are far bigger and much more long reaching than any General Election. In particular there are 3-4 years worth of new voters on the register, who this will affect most. Also now there's a deal on the table, we know exactly what we're voting for, not some lie painted on a bus.

It's boring me like everyone else, but the implications are too important, to 'just get it over with', because it won't, negotiating a trade deal will drag on for years.

I can guarantee I'll shut up on the issue if we vote again and accept this deal
