The UK attorney general offers his legal opinion to the press in relation to the supposed deal last night
- isn't it a response to Jon Snow's rumour rather than the new deal amendment?Fax_Benson

All these hard brexiters keep insisting that the Irish border is a non-issue - principally because there's a piece-of-piss easy technical solution, but the only thing that ties us to the backstop is if no technical solution is found.
- we can fix it, easy!
- want to put that into writing?
fuck noFax_Benson - they've had 2 years to get the tech solution at least presented as a white paper. There's zero presented by the leave side.shapesalad

May's voice is on the verge of disappearing... she sounds terrible... what at tattered finish to this Brexit nonsense. 2 years to get this sorted out, already had it voted down in the biggest rejection for decades... Pretty clear, Brexit as a concept doesn't work.

- of course brexit works. put in some barbed wire and customs at the northern irish border just like it used to be and we're goldenhans_glib

Such a waste of time, money, resources and completely distracting us from all of the things that currently really matter in the world. But ya know, BREXIT innit?! I think this country is at breaking point (not like Nigel Farage's poster though) more from our distrust of politicians and the media to do anything of any importance
- and it's all based on an advisory vote where a lot of old folk dream of the good old days, some dreamed of 350m and unicorns and some saw it as a chance to...shapesalad
- ..stick a finger up to the gov / experts / those perceived above them. All an advisory vote. Not binding. Could have been explored further to figure out...shapesalad

No deal Brexit in theory off the table, though technically still gonna happen unless EU agrees delay or UK withdrawn A50.

Theresa May and others say a 2nd referendum would be an insult to the people, that they'd be asked again until they gave the correct answer, and how many referendums would be required until they gave the correct answer? etc...
Meanwhile MPs vote against Theresa Mays deal once, then twice and now there's talk of presenting it to MP's a third time - see above arguments for why this is defying her own reasoning...
Not to mention it's been 3 years near since the public referendum, a fair amount of time for opinion to change. Yet we're looking at a few weeks between the MP's vote, and now a week between the 2nd and 3rd vote.

the only reason to not run a 2nd referendum is to keep the Tory party together and in power.
The ERG and DUP would hate it if the 2nd referendum showed a majority not in favour of brexit.
Referendums only work well when the people voting have a really good understanding on what they are voting on and the full implications of their vote.
The British public are probably more informed now that they were when the vote happened so it only makes sense to have another one.
- How do you really know if people are more informed? Running another won't fix the first one. And people will not forget the first one.Fax_Benson
- I would suggest it's an obvious fact that the public are generally better informed now than before, no?********
- yeah, but you can't prove it - certainly not in any sense that will convince everyone that we need to do it againFax_Benson
- what would the choice be? May deal / No deal / remain? you'd split the vote 3 ways. And May's deal isn't even backed by the government that negotiated it.Fax_Benson
- When would you hold it? Who would run the campaigns? What if it was 52/48 the other way? How would you even get it through the Commons?Fax_Benson
- there's been no more thought put into a second referendum than there was for the first.Fax_Benson
- and this is just the the withdrawal agreement. We'd need another referendum in 5 years when we realise we didn't understand the future arrangementsFax_Benson
- the bed is shatFax_Benson
- fucking lol at the idea that "the public are generally better informed now..."hans_glib
- There's a lot of people who don't care what will happen, even if it will make their lives worse for many years. Still think go ahead with it for Mad Max reasonsPhanLo
- Remain MPs keep saying 'nobody voted to be worse off' - there's fucking people on the news saying that's exactly what they did, deliberately.Fax_Benson
- being better informed isn't the same as understanding all implications. Voting on something when you have no idea of implications is foolish.lowimpakt
- After the 2nd referendum there should be 3rd to make sure the (even more informed by then) voters are really sure what they want. Then a 4th one, ad infinitum.Krassy
- there won't be a 2nd referendum, would cause more problems than Brexit (possibly)fadein11
