Fascinating new polling by @chrischirp and @ChristabelCoops on how Leavers and Remainers feel about suspending parliament politics.co.uk/comment-analys…
The initial results are predictably depressing. Remainers think it's unacceptable. Leavers think it's acceptable.
But there is a chink of light. If you ask Leavers whether they would support suspending parliament for revoke and *then* if they'd support it for no-deal, the percentage in favour drops.
It doesn't seem to affect male Leavers much. But it does affect female Leave voters and those aged under 45.
Constitutions and law work on the basis of protecting everyone equally. The fact a gentle reminder creates a significant change in support suggests this argument still fundamentally works.
Of course it would work better if you had a government which wanted to unite rather than divide people. But then if that was the case we wouldn't be in this mess.
Full findings here. It really is a terribly smart, imaginative bit of polling politics.co.uk/comment-analys…
