This is what they should have done before invoking Article 50. Sounds like there have been some really good speeches.

Re: Brexit (New).
I think if May added a Customs Union to the deal it would be done.
DUP would back it surely. The risk to them is the backstop being solved by cutting off Northern Ireland. The backstop is gone.

2nd referendum did far better than I thought. Common Market 2.0 did awful. Remainers thinking they can win the whole thing.

Re: Brexit (New).
This is just nuts. No majority for anything ... so much for Parliament taking over and fixing everything. They must now accept that the executive has done its job and ratify the WA, surely?

Re: Brexit (New).
If we take May's deal as the benchmark then in order of least failure:
- Ken Clark's Customs Union
- Public Vote (on May's Deal or May's Deal + Customs Union)
- Labour's deal I don't understand
- Common Market 2
- Revocation

You might as well rearrange deckchairs on the Titanic. Every one of those proposals failed. Every single one. Parliament is a disgrace.

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.

Re: Brexit (New).
BBC now playing footage of Corbyn wailing earlier today that the Prime Minister has failed because she can’t build a consensus. How hollow he sounds now.

The paper ballots were supposed to stop people looking over their shoulders in the lobbies and voting tactically. If they were actually still all sitting there with their papers poring over the options and trying to second guess each other then that’s actually worse in my view. We are at a point of national crisis, Parliament had the chance to draw a line under it, but instead they decided to play political games. Disgraceful.

Re: Brexit (New).
10 Tories voted to revoke Article 50! Revoke! Mental.

Well yeah but that is absolutely what they did and what we expected them to do. The concept of voting again next week with the most popular options remaining was already priced into the decision making.
IMO The shock is how well the most radical options did. I thought people would naturally drift to Common Market 2.0/Norway as the middle ground but instead they went off to the extremes of 2nd Referendum. Revoke did better than May's deal!

DUP abstained on Customs Union but theoretically I think they would support it in the end. The votes are there if the Government wrote it into the political declaration.

Re: Brexit (New).
one thing is certain no way will they let there be a no deal Brexit
Clarke’s UK’s wide Customs Union and the Confimatory public vote both got more votes that Mays deal

Re: Brexit (New).
I'll never understand why the ERG didn't go for May's Deal, especially the 2nd time when it was clear what was happening. I don't know what they thought would happen but after the deal failed they were reportedly cheering and humming the Great Escape.

Re: Brexit (New).
Makes me laugh how they take a chunk out of May but couldn't even pull a deal off themselves.
