The assumption is MPs voted tactically to eliminate the 'soft' Brexit options they do not support. The SNP for example did not vote for the Common Market because they wanted to boost the chances of Second Referendum. The reveal of the results might cause shifts now.
For example Tories might file in behind Customs Union because it's so close to getting a majority and is the easiest to implement with May's agreement. It might also be possible some people voted Revoke and not Second referendum. They might shift. Common Market 2.0 supporters could split between Customs Union and Referendum.
It's run-off time. I think Ken Clark's Customs Union will get a majority next week.
