The people were given a choice leave or remain. 52% chose leave. Mays deal was a bad deal but a leave deal it was.

No one bothered to ask the people what type of deal they wanted and in fact before the referendum a no deal was ruled out (Boris, Nigel et al all said the EU would beg the UK for a deal)

If you want leave at any cost then there is Mays deal.or agree to a customs union for Northern Ireland only and you solve the problem.

May’s “deal” was not leave at all. It was leave in name only, all the same as before only now Britain gets no vote at all AND Britain now requires a permission slip from the EU to ever actually leave. That’s the sort of treaty you only sign when you’ve lost a war.

No deal was NOT ruled out before the referendum. That’s just pure BS. What any competent PM would have done was negotiate deals with America and others and then turn around and use that as leverage with the EU. That’s not what May did. She ruled out the one thing that would have given Britain any kind of leverage at all - ie leaving on WTO terms. She needs to go.
