Southport MP Damien Moore has for the past month hosted an online survey about Brexit.

In the survey, Mr Moore has asked residents to give him their views on Brexit including whether they support the Prime Minister’s deal and on what terms they think that Britain should leave the European Union.

Mr Moore has previously set out his position stating that he would vote down the Prime Minister’s deal over the contentious backstop proposal. The Southport MP has contended that this provision endangers the union of the United Kingdom and should be renegotiated.

The results of the Brexit survey show a great deal of support for Mr Moore’s position. Residents have overwhelmingly rejected the backstop and consider the Prime Minister’s deal unacceptable.

Almost three-times as many residents favour leaving the European Union without a deal than holding a second referendum.

Commenting on the results of the survey Damien Moore said “I am unsurprised by the resident’s responses to my survey. I have always advocated that the Prime Minister’s deal in its current form is unworkable, even dangerous to our union. This is a concern that is clearly felt by the residents of Southport.

The people of Southport have no appetite for a second referendum. Our residents are democratic and respect the result of the referendum of 2016 – the largest democratic exercise in our nation’s history. People want their politicians to respect the result and get on with the withdrawal process. It is however important that this is done in the right way and I continue to believe that only the Conservative Party can offer this to the electorate.”

He never asked me, and I support a Peoples Vote to see whether a dog's Brexit is what people want.

About as representative of the wider public as a Daily Mail survey, ie pointless.

I wrote to him demanding a People's Vote, and he certainly didn't direct me to his 'survey'.

OK, fine. How would these "people" differ from the "people" who voted in the first referendum? What question do you want on the ballot paper? Would it be a simple Yes or No? Would there be 2 options or 3?

Or more importantly how would we deal with the SNP who only want a vote if they get what they want,

Ms Sturgeon has also indicated she would seek a guarantee or "double lock" for such a ballot, for example requiring the support of all four UK nations before Britain could leave the EU.

SNP Westminster leader Ian Blackford has also suggested that the SNP could seek a guarantee that Scotland could hold another vote on independence in return for its support.


Then there's the General Election we would have to run that on a best of five basis otherwise the people who didn't pay attention during the election campaigns would claim they didn't know what they were voting for.

The hardest shouters for the peoples vote the Liberal Democrats were endlessly on the TV during the referendum campaign and took every opportunity to tell us what they thought.

People rejected their arguments twice.

Why did the remoaners not vote for the Liberal Democrats at the general election they offered a second vote but were trounced, or is the truth that most of the remoaners wanted Brexit but are afraid to either speak the truth or vote for their beliefs ?
