      There is lots of fascinating stuff in this @YouGov poll, but among the most glaring is the fact that absolutely no one wants Norway Plus/Common Market 2.0 - because they rightly see it as the worst of all worlds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4zPEmRufMU …pic.twitter.com/ODayeOPpvx

      Brexiteers think it doesn't deliver Brexit. (Freedom of movement, rule-taking, big payments to the EU etc.) And Remainers think it's crappy version of EU membership. And you know what? Both of them are right.

      This is one reason why it's so hard to find a Brexit solution. Because the natural instinct is to find a compromise halfway between the two positions - except that this compromise removes many of the advantages of EU membership without offering compensating opportunities...

      I don’t understand that instinct to compromise. The whole point of holding a referendum in the first place was that there isn’t a compromise position. Leave won. There’s no reason why Remain should get a say at all.

      I disagree! In a 52-48 vote there’s a need for consensus if at all possible. But not for the sake of it...

      I don’t see why 52-48 is any different to 80-20. It was win or lose.

          Explains much of your output over the past three years @JuliaHB1, but we are a representative democracy and one of their roles is to protect the minority from the tyranny of the majority. If a Labour MP wins a seat should they never speak to a Tory voter in their constituency?

          That’s not remotely the same thing. The correct analogy would be if a Labour MP wins with a small majority, should they be expected to vote for Tory policies or maybe do a job share with their rival candidate?

          Coalition govts mean parties do deals to agree a combined set of policies. General elections are not binary decisions. Many different options. Not the same as a binary referendum vote.

          The referendum wasn’t binary as we’ve discovered people wanted different “versions” of leave. From the one that was promised at time of referendum through to no deal.

          This seems to have got lost in all the furore. It was first past the post. It doesn't matter how big or small the margin was, a binary vote will always be divisive.Why the government thinks it needs to appease the losers of the referendum, beats me.

          If, instead of looking at the straight percentages of 52% 48% , the Referendum result is expressed by constituency on a FPTP basis (our usual election counting method) it is 68% Leave, 32% Remain. Almost 70% of UK constituencies voted to Leave. It was definitely win #Brexit

          I tend to agree with with Robert with one caveat. Had the vote gone the other way, would they have said 'Look, that was close, let's compromise and move to the EEA/EFTA pillar. It's very close to EU membership but restores a little bit of sovereignty.'

          The smaller difference makes it even more obvious why majority driven democracy works. Because, as we’ve witnessed for 3 years now, some people will never compromise and you need a practical solution to end a dispute and move forward

          You’d have heard from leavers but the result would have been to retain the status quo. A remain Parliament would’ve been backed by a referendum result that was to remain. Leavers would’ve had a small percentage of the clout that Remainers have had to disrupt the result.
