Different factions in the EU disagree you know. The next EU parliamentary elections are going to likely result in a massive change.
And also this deal will not be that bad.
It will finally bring some stability.
It is the best option right now.
Three options like results in none actually getting 50%.
Plus throw in Russian trolls, other irregularities, deceptive tactics from both sides, the referendum being non binding... yeah.
Not going to work.
Tell me, also has a majority of Parliament agreed on your ballot format?
The EU is a lot less divided than the UK lot when it comes to Brexit, mate.
No matter how much you think wishing something really hard will make it true, as it stands, there are no other plans, the EU has ruled out other plans and there is not one single indication (or reason) that that's going to change anytime soon.
You're risking several countries on literally nothing more than the hope that some people, at some point, might possibly change their mind, even though it isn't in their own interest to do so at all.
Yeah, this deal will not be that bad, apart from all the things about it that are.
That's why even May's own party can't agree on it. Because it's just that fantastic a deal.
It is the best option if the only other option is no deal.
Luckily, there are two more options. No Brexit, or a second ref.
Both better than what you're pushing.
I like how you're perfectly fine hanging the fate of the entire UK on the empty hope that at some point enough EU countries might, for some reason, change their mind about giving the UK some kind of magical deal, despite having repeatedly said they won't, but find it completely unfathomable to think a second ref might actually have a clear outcome.
Apparently your magical wishing fairies only conveniently agree to work as long as they're doing what you want them to do.
..Considering parliament hasn't agreed to a second referendum, it would be a bit odd if they agreed on the ballot format for one, wouldn't it?
