    The logic seems to be that the majority voted for Leave and that the majority of Leave voters want no deal, and therefore the majority want a no deal.

    Also, it's the Torygraph. The extent to which the public is in favour of no deal has been vastly exaggerated -- Redwood was trying to sell this lie the other day on C4 news. Tory members and the ERG support it, the rest rather less.

    By Brexiter standards that's an overwhelming majority in favour of revocation.
    What is the margin of error in a survey that size? 3%

    Personally I want MPs to vote with those 2 choices.

    Agreed the idea of a world super power being subservient to the e.u. rules and having no democratic vote is an utter farcical situation to be in, not as stupid as no deal but close.

    It will then stand as a political monument to Brexit for at least a generation.
    I respect your opinion.

However it's making Mogg, Boris and Farage look even more irrelevant as they are still spouting the we want unicorns nonsense with no credible plan to deliver it (no deal is not a plan as they have the Brexiters told us during the campaign, we hold all the cards it's the easiest deal in history etc etc).
