If we’re going to have Brexit at all, then the May deal was fairly tolerable to me, so if it happens that’ll be ok. A second referendum would be a good outcome from the point of view of a reasonable Remainer - a fair shot at a remain outcome or, if we do leave, a fairly soft landing.
How would they force him? Take control of the order paper and propose primary 2nd ref legislation? I don't think there is a majority for that. They'd want Bozza to own it.
Labour’s official policy is to hold a second referendum so I think they will make that a condition of passing the new deal, and I think the tories will accept it, especially if the DUP are not supporting it.
That's illogical. We know we're leaving the EU, we've voted it on I already!. Any new referendum has to be: do you want the deal or don't you (the default being a clean break "no deal")?
Basically this deal will probably squeeze through even without DUP. Labour Leavers will vote for it. The Tory 21 will vote for it. Tbh with a bit of pork and some threats, the DUP will probably recognise the game is up and vote for it. Will be very close though.
Nice big fiscal splurge coming.
Boris and Dominic will smash the election.
Short recession early next year (we’re already in it tbh)
Will be boom time by 2021.
But lots of batty ideas from the right of the Tory party. Politics will take a massive shift to the right generally and our long-term strategic position both politically and economically has become worse. But most people wont notice.
Rejoiners will probably win in 15-20 years time and we will go back in considerably diminished and on worse terms.

Except that the DUP have issued a categorical statement saying they will not support it.... They cannot row back from that.

Do you think Bozza would prefer to let the Commons block the deal and then blame it in a GE, or concede a 2nd ref to get it through.
Personally I think he and the Tories would be better of with the former.

Me too, and I think this is one reason Parliament may force him to eat a second referendum.

He doesn't want a referendum. If he loses a ref (not certain but more likely than losing a GE) then he will lose a GE that follows it.

Agreed Linda. Almost no Tory supporters want it and it would bolster the BP. I just can't see a second ref at all.

Why would the Tories accept it when the alternative is blaming them for blocking Brexit at a GE?

If DUP don't support the deal, we are surely heading for a second referendum.

There won’t be a second referendum we haven’t implemented the first yet and I voted remain.
it takes months and the wording of what should be on the ballot paper would never in a billion years be capable of agreement!

"There won’t be a second referendum we haven’t implemented the first yet"
this is a really dumb argument people keep spouting
do you want the UK to leave the EU with the deal
do you want the UK to remain in the EU
simples
FAOD I have never wanted another ref on the actual question of if we should leave, but a ref on the deal seems sensible
