Agree with that. Just a point on 'no deal' if that is the campaign line....

In the 2016 referendum more registered voters actually stayed at home and didn't vote rather than vote Brexit (or Remain). Of the 52% therefore who did vote Brexit let's be generous and say 35% of them are ok with 'no deal'. I make that around 24% of the overall voting population. Not exactly a mandate is it.
