O/T The meaningful vote.

[KerrAvon]

Exile I think a second referendum result should stand regardless of the result on the grounds that anyone who has taken an interest cannot claim to be lacking understanding of the issues after more than two years negotiating,.Unlike the nonsense were fed by both sides during the original so called referendum campaign

I think your post is cobblers in two ways.

Firstly, you may say that you think that the results of a further referendum should be final and you might even believe it, but, I think there would be plenty of people on both sides of the debate who would not accept the outcome if it didn’t go their way.

Secondly, I think it nonsense to suggest that people have an understanding of the issues. I have heard people say they want the Norway model – as favoured by many Labour MPs – but who, upon questioning, have no understanding of what it means (basically it involves taking the worst parts of being in and adding them to the worst parts of being out and putting them together). Labour supporters bang on about remaining in the customs union (presumably having checked in with Momentum to find out what they are supposed to think), but, again, when asked, can’t explain the implications of that.

As for Canada ++ - as favoured by some Tories - I have met only one person who can explain what that means (not bad, but probably difficult to negotiate).
