My Way or No Way

So, Theresa May has succeeded in gaining cabinet approval for her form of Brexit, which is neither fish nor fowl. It seems the options are her Brexit, no Brexit or a hard Brexit. Once Parliament rejects her Brexit, where will be a clear choice - hard Brexit or no Brexit - I see a 2nd referendum on the horizon, as I predicted many months ago. It's all in the timing.

There's an irony in the Conservative Brexiteer MPs, who are firmly against a 2nd referendum, wanting shot of her, despite a referendum among the Conservative party on her leadership, which has lasted a shorter period than the time elapsed since the 2016 referendum. Another leadership election is a in itself a 2nd  referendum in anyone's lexicon. Hypocrites!

I can understand Corbyn's  refusal to endorse a 2nd referendum - he's a self-avowed Democratic Socialist, after all. Democratic Socialism is communism by the ballot box, and once you choose Democratic Socialism there can be no reconsideration - democracy is done away with in favour of a one party state. Endorsing a 2nd referendum would trash his principles and leave a Democratic Socialist government open to being done away with via subsequent elections. Think about it.
