When you have a winner and a loser, you don't have a compromise. Also, this government will never get a deal through as there is an opposition which seems to serve one purpose - derail whatever the government try to do.

The solution is a General Election. See which MPs still have the support of voters after their actions of the past three years.

The suggestion of compromise is futile. It undermines the concept of "to the winner, the spoils". It's more "to the winner, a little appeasement; to the loser, a share of the prize".

Brexit must happen. Anyone who thinks otherwise must be listening to the musings of a three year old. Probably one with deeply considered views on gender politics.

Democracy doesn’t need to be a Boolean choice. With such a close result, there was an opportunity to find a balanced solution before views on both sides became too polarised.

Farage made two points in and around the referendum - that it might take two referenda to cement the choice and that living under a Norwegian/EFTA model would be fine. This now seems like the best solution all round (not in EU and closely linked) and comes from the (albeit recently recanted) arbiter of the leave movement. How apposite.

I'm not sure your Gender Equality thoughts (on this board and others) are wholly based on fairness.

Far too late to this thread, I know, but...
