Second Referendum

[hudds]

If we did have another referendum, which I am personally against as I think it will be even more divisive,  I think you would pretty much have to either have the same binary choice as before in or out.

this will certainly mean having to have EU parliament elections and anyone who thinks another referendum will put an end to the issue is naive in the extreme.

That would be madness. 

There is now a deal agreed with the EU that would have to be a specific option in a ballot, something tangible rather than a notion which the first referendum was based on.

In some ways we got this the wrong way round, the Conservative party should have got its act together and come to a conclusion that as a party they believed it was best to leave the EU, and offered a referendum to the UK electorate on the best deal they could negotiate with the EU.

Would have been a great idea except the EU won't negotiate before Article 50 is triggered

Nothing to stop a majority Conservative Party campaigning on a policy of leaving the EU, triggering Article 50, negotiating a deal and then putting that deal to a referendum.

But they were not prepared to come to a definitive policy on Europe .

As I say, May kowtowed to nutters in her Party and before country's interests and prematurely ejaculated Article 50.  NB The EU didn't cause this mess and had no legal imperative to cushion the UK's exposed arse.  The negotiators from the UK have been totally and criminally unprepared and arrogant/negligent but it hasn't helped that any deal that could be worked out has been undermined by the likes of the DUP's handiwork.  The UK looks like a fucking basket case.
