Living in a democracy means you are able to vote, not voting is a choice you are allowed to make if you so wish.
Funnily enough, we already had a parliamentary consensus for Brexit and that was the Brady amendment - the current deal but ditch the backstop which appears to be government policy. Unsurprisingly the EU rejects this and sticks to its position because it knows parliament won't sanction a no-deal so they can get whatever they want.
No concessions for those evil Tory voters then
Right, so because I disagree you're suggesting I'm a child. Great, another childish insult.
Johnson is PM, but even he doesn't have the power, as he doesn't have a majority government and the supreme court has clipped his wings. He doesn't have the power to enact any form of Brexit.
It was sold as many things, and most didn't believe all the promises made by those, like Farage, who weren't going to be in power in the event he won, just as we don't believe all the promises before each general election.
Everything the Tories have done since Brexit, in an effort to provide Brexit, has been a mess. They've let the country down, and no other party has exactly helped either.
This is just childish language. I'm not personally offended or anything, I just think you're being childish and what I'm left remembering after reading your posts is not whatever point you were trying to make, but that you're just being childish. No doubt you'll just reply to my post with your three words thinking you're smart, and I'll ignore you.
I'm not sure they wanted no deal back then, but I don't think a good deal was ever going to be easy. But I don't really mind that, everyone knew that those claims were being made by people who weren't going to be in power, so they were obviously empty promises.
Yes I agree it needs to be like that, and within those limits a deal could still be good or bad.
I don't wonder, I've always known that the majority of people would prefer a soft brexit. Of course there would be a lot of leave voters who wanted a harder brexit, but overall they are in a minority. If we had a referendum that gave the choice of a fair soft brexit deal, or a hard brexit (remain not on the paper), then the vast majority of voters would go for the soft brexit.Now some Leave voters recognise this, whilst others believe this is 'NOT LEAVING THE EU', 'VASSAL STATE' etc etc
So their alternative has to be, by definition, 'No deal'.
I wonder how many want each option. If only there was a way to find out
I'd like to think that was true but the 12s and 14s don't stop at that stop any longer.
Reading back my post, yes that is what I said, and no I realise that not 'everyone' knew, but I would say that those who were taking an interest in the debate at the time knew that Farage wasn't going to be our PM.
Damn, I'd like that to have been true too. Nice detective work (obviously I'm taking you at your word).I'd like to think that was true but the 12s and 14s don't stop at that stop any longer.

Having a 12-year-old daughter myself, I was a little concerned at what they don't stop at these days.My daughter is fake newsing me ?
I can stop you there. I wasn't suggesting we had another referendum (and I'm not saying we shouldn't, that's a separate subject), I'm simply stating that we have had a referendum, and although Leave won, the majority of voters wouldn't have wanted a hard brexit. That's just obvious.
