I'm interested to know from those posters saying we must stop no deal... What do you propose in place of it? Is it a case of stop and revoke, or stop and come up with an alternative deal etc?
My ideal would be a government which explained just how damaging Brexit is, and revoked Article 50. At the same time they would have to deal with some of the issues which caused the referendum result in the first place, notably IMO, the under investment in and neglect of parts of the UK.
They would also have to share honest information about the EU and what it does / how it works, how it benefits us, and put a stop to lying and disinformation both in the press and on social media.
This doesn’t preclude campaigning from within the EU to reform parts of it if necessary.
I am not particularly in favour of a second referendum because I think the result would still be very split, and that it would potentially be even more divisive than the last one.
Given that my preferred scenario is very unlikely however, I think we have to leave, but with a deal. Either May’s deal, which in the end was blocked by the ERG and DUP for nefarious reasons, or we ask the EU for a proper extension which we would use to reconsider some of our own red lines, in order to put a new proposal to them.
While this last is calmly being worked on, we (or leavers) accept that we are leaving when things are settled, and in the meantime the government and civil service also get back to important national issues which have had too little attention paid to them for too long now.
