After the #EUelectionresults we face a Gordian knot of political difficulty.
1) Leave now means No Deal, which is unacceptable to Parliament (and was not what was promised in the Ref). Yet the Leave vote has clearly moved in this direction and may not be satisfied with any deal.
2) Any Deal is vulnerable to attack from either side and therefore seems unlikely to get through Parliament or be acceptable to the Electorate as a whole, who are more sharply divided than ever. The 'Deal' parties (Con/Lab) have done terribly.
3) Yet, for many, a #PeoplesVote (Confirmatory Referendum - Lib/Greens,/Nationalists) doesn't honour the original vote outcome and seems unlikely to address the issues this #Brexit process has revealed.
I don't see how a General Election would change things. It's a complete nightmare with no clear answers. Since the Ref we've become more sharply divided and mapping out any kind of future together over this issue
There are no answers to this question that can command any meaningful majority in either Parliament or the country. If we could be more honest about that, it might help. Perhaps.
