The Tories aren’t going to flip to remain.
In which case there is a large part of the population who will have no representation.
I can't see May surviving November, question is who the new leader is - if it's someone very different from May then will they allows themselves to be condemned by what May did before they took over?
We shall see, maybe empirical testing is the only way at this point.
Give people a choice between Labour Brexit and Tory Remain and the Tories will walk it.
Betting that the Tories will view sacking May and flipping to Remain in order to retain power goes against everything we've seen from them - always retain power, then worry about detail afterwards.
And, if that comes to pass, then voting Tory is actually the only way to save the NHS, which is bitterly ironic.
The economic impact of No Deal would be bad, but a minimal "Canada" Free Trade deal would also be bad, just less so, and so any party delivering it would be doing so for a small minority, and the majority would abandon them for a generation in response to the effects, leaving the Tories free to do what they want - a point which you are ignoring.
