Why not the other way round?Surely you could have two questions
1. Leave or Remain
2. If Leave win, May's Deal or No Deal
Only consider question 2 if Leave is > 50%
1. May’s Deal or No Deal
2. Remain or winner of #1

Only consider question 1 if Remain doesn’t have 50% in question 2? How convoluted...Why not the other way round?

Indeed. Which is kinda the point I was making with that rhetoric.Only consider question 1 if Remain doesn’t have 50% in question 2? How convoluted...
EU elections will definitely take place on 23rd and 26th May.Do they have time to hold the general election on the same date as well... Seems very likley the EU elections will be taking place
This links shows all the HoC votesDoes anyone have a spreadsheet to how MPs voted in the indicative votes
Don't know about a spreadsheet but on some show I was watching on BBC yesterday, they said on their website you can enter the name of your MP or constituency and see how they voted.Does anyone have a spreadsheet to how MPs voted in the indicative votes
Such a weird position for British MEPs to be put into.EU elections will definitely take place on 23rd and 26th May.
If there's any delay from the UK meaning they are still in the EU on 23rd May they have to hold EU elections as well whenever the UK hold the GE. Not convinced a GE will be sufficient grounds.
What I want to know, is if you combine the "2nd referendum" option with the "customs union" option, does that have a majority?Don't know about a spreadsheet but on some show I was watching on BBC yesterday, they said on their website you can enter the name of your MP or constituency and see how they voted.
On the link you can see who voted for what and who abstained, I'll let you work that outWhat I want to know, is if you combine the "2nd referendum" option with the "customs union" option, does that have a majority?
Taking the rules that :-
anyone that voted for the 2nd referendum, but against the customs union, they would still vote for the 2nd referendum & customs union idea...
and anyone that abstained on the 2nd referendum vote, but voted for the customs union, they would still vote for the 2nd referendum & customs union idea...
but anyone that voted against the 2nd referendum, but voted for the customs union, they would still vote against the 2nd referendum & customs union idea...
Does that have a majority?
The other confusion is that some of the UK seats were to be shared out amongst the remaining 27 and some were to be got rid of so there were less overall MEPsSuch a weird position for British MEPs to be put into.
I reckon there was a deadline looming on this and they assumed we would be out of the EU and it could have no effect on proceedings. They probably thought it was going to be a two fingers up “haha we cheated and won”.
That’s just dawned on you?Something just dawned on me. "Brexit means Brexit", "We already voted once" "Will of the people" etc etc.
Yet May is here having repeated votes on the exact same thing. Can't she see the hypocrisy?
Yes I'm ashamed to sayThat’s just dawned on you?
They have plenty of times in parliament.Yes I'm ashamed to say
It was a bit of a light bulb moment for me. Has no one pointed this out to her?
He feels so strongly about the Union that he's even willing to reject a Brexit that threatens the Union? You know things are bad when the DUP are resorting to common sense.Maybe these pricks should have thought about this at the time of the referendum...Tweet

Absolutely disgraceful. The result should be null and void. Someone with some power should raise this and hold people to account. They should not be allowed to get away with this, especially the MPs that were with them.I reckon there was a deadline looming on this and they assumed we would be out of the EU and it could have no effect on proceedings. They probably thought it was going to be a two fingers up “haha we cheated and won”.
It's passed on! Her deal is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet 'is maker! This is a late deal! 'It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed 'im to the perch 'e'd be pushing up the daisies! It's run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisible!! THIS IS AN EX-DEAL!!
If you support the SNP maybe but sensible. That is a new one.They seem to be the only sensible party.

Eh.. Revoke A50 and then have a second referendum. That makes no sense.You'd think, any other PM in history would have resigned long before now.
For me it should be;
- Revoke A50
- General Election
- Second Referendum
Why are all these people so fecking weird looking?! *bangs head*Tweet

It does if the EU won't delay Brexit any further. It'd either be revoke or no deal.Eh.. Revoke A50 and then have a second referendum. That makes no sense.
He seems to have solved the Irish border problem as there's no mention of Northern Ireland.Tweet

Oh come on. Family is way more important than politics.Absolutely. All trust is smashed and it's way more adversorial now- ie remoaners, Brexiteers are racists etc...Sad that it's driven a big wedge between my mother and her partner and the wife and I.
Why wouldn't the EU delay Brexit any further. You heard Tusk and the others. It would be a massive victory for them. The longer the delay the more likely we are to remain because they know that people are getting totally sick and fed up of the ongoing problems.It does if the EU won't delay Brexit any further. It'd either be revoke or no deal.

And there in lies the problem.Why is Parliament struggling to sort this?
35million people took 2 seconds, in a binary vote, to get us here.
Anyone would think this was too complex an issue, to put before an uninformed electorate, in a referendum.

You see. Christians were right all along.He seems to have solved the Irish border problem as there's no mention of Northern Ireland.
You would have thought if you were writing a stupid placard you'd at least get your facts and spelling right . Brexiter through and through.
