?
  1. Full Brexit with "no EU deal" on the 29th March.

  2. Request Extension to article 50 to allow a general election and new negotiations.

  3. Request Extension to article 50 to allow cross party talks and a new deal to be put to EU.

  4. Request Extension to article 50 to allow a second referendum on 1. Remain in EU or 2. Full Brexit.

  5. Table a motion in parliament to Remain in EU WITHOUT a referendum.

  6. I don't know or I don't care anymore

Results are only viewable after voting.
  1. That's remainers for ya, odd bunch
     
  2. That's what Cameron failed to understand - the depth of stupidity of the majority who voted Leave, plus the even greater stupidity of the 24% or so that failed to vote but were happy to go along with whatever people thought best.

    If the original ref could be re-run, it would have had only one option on the ballot. I bet the electorate would have been too stupid to notice it, too.

  3. No even you thinks that will be how this turns out.
     
  4. In a Parliamentary democracy, it is important that you never give the stupid electorate a chance to vote on anything meaningful, hence the traditional dearth of referendums.

    People are allowed to vote in elections, to make them believe they live in a democracy, but as no political party wants to do more than nibble around the edges of societal change, there's no harm in a GE every five years. The establishment, the elites, are undisturbed whoever wins.

  7. nope, I know that's how it should be.

    However I am watching a load of mary's on £80k a year plus expenses, saying the government has undermined parliament, whilst parliament tries to undermine the largest majority democratic vote by the people in modern times.
