2) referendum vote on condition of approval of The Deal.
3) the real work, negotiation of the parameters of separation. The Deal. Clearly we need to know if we are voting to be independent or a US territory. But also our pension cut, costs, deals with FN's, etc.
4) a final binding vote on The Deal
5) Separation


Brexit jumped from 2 to 5, then did 3 without 4. This is dumb. No one should want this. We need to ensure we get to vote on The Deal, and that we are not bound by fantasy promises peddled by morons of deceit. Step 2 should not be binding in any way, and anyone saying it should is doing so because they know the facts and reality are not on their side, and want to hoodwink you before you are shown reality.
I had posted this a few days ago, gets into the process
