OK guys, once again it's down to me to bring some common sense and perspective to this debate. All the pundits and experts of all political persuasions have said that last night's results have only shown what people already knew, that the country is completely split down the middle on Brexit, and there are no numbers in Parliament for any way out of this.I said the day after the 2016 Referendum that the Liberalist Establishment of Britain would never let us leave the EU, and that's exactly what's happening. Come October 31st, we'll ask for another extension, and it will be granted, and the sh*tshow will just go on and on.All this means is that the country is bitterly divided, and that bitterness will never ever go away. I saw it after the miners' strike; brother against brother, father against son, friends against friends.That's what we've got coming. Thanks a lot David Cameron.
Lastly the Doncaster result also shows this forum doesn't reflect the Doncaster public's thoughts
Wilts Yeah. I get it.Polls can't be trusted to give you a picture of what the country thinks (unless they support Corbyn, in which case they can).You also can't draw any conclusions from actual elections either.I see the theme.
Billy , all the remainer parties polled 40% of the vote, the Brexit party polled 34% of the vote add the tory 9% and the labour 14% and with both parties having it in their manifestos to respect the referendum, which to my knowledge is still those parties aspiration, and in fact have just spent the last six weeks trying to agree a way to come out. Unless the voters for both parties still don't know what they were voting for like you and many others did't in the last general election, the vote for out has extended it's lead. Or did you campaign in the knowledge you were telling lies while out on the stump?
BSI really, really hope your job doesn't involve numbers.How in God's name do you draw the conclusion that a large majority want No Deal?BFYPHow on earth do you come to that conclusion? 76% of people voted for parties that explicitly want a No Deal Brexit or Re2/Revoke.

Keep living in denial and blatantly ignore yet another democratic vote, if you want. Me? I'll live in the real world.
Talking about painting Black as White and being in denial :-best not to believe the Brexit Broadcasting Corporation , or tabloidsremain won1.

Analysis: Brexit Party made almost zero gain over 2014 UKIP & assorted nationalist parties... People's Vote UK and 4 others follow Will Hutton @williamnhutton 20h20 hours ago More A week ago Remain hoped that if we pulled out all the stops and voted tactically we might get 36, even 37 Remain MEPs. We did it! We have 37. And even on a close definition of Remain excluding Labour we beat Leave. This is not a mandate for No Deal on Oct 31st - or even leaving.
BS.Right. So we've got that established then. A large majority in the country as a whole DON'T want a No Deal Brexit. Agreed?
