UK politics: votes for the people

- The government’s fragile majority risks shattering under internal tensions about Brexit. No form of future trade relationship appears to have a parliamentary majority, but that is not a necessary part of the forthcoming Withdrawal Act.
- Difficulties in forming a majority about future trade are likely to climax after Brexit and could force the government to outsource the decision to the public.
- A general election is ill-equipped to solve internal party problems, so the most likely scenario for a pre-2022 one is if a poll bounce seduces Theresa May’s replacement. Under such circumstances, Corbyn should still not take power.
- Holding a referendum on the broad terms of the UK-EU27 trade relationship in 2020 would override personal political preferences and allow a policy to pass.
