Since the vote to leave... leaving in the least damaging way possible was always the best case scenario. Even if you’re a devout europhile, just being realistic, giving that ground ... buys you political capital.
MPs didn’t go that route.
MPs didn't really have that option. As soon as May started blathering on about end to FOM and leaving the CU and SM, the overton window shifted and a compromise Brexit was out of the window. The ERG won't even vote for the WA if the backstop is removed!
Because leaving is looking awesome right now?
