And in reality an election would likely have 1 of 2 out comes
Con/BP coalition = Hard Brexit
LibDem/Lab coalition = No brexit.

Not quite Francis, not quite but could be pretty close as I see my old union Unison has decided to back the Remain option.
I'm a little disappointed tbh but at least it would give Steptoe a bloody nose.

Jeremy Corbyn faces a battle over Labour's Brexit policy later as members choose between two competing strategies at the party's annual conference.
They will decide whether Labour should explicitly back Remain in any future referendum, or adopt Mr Corbyn's stance of staying neutral until a later date.
Unison has broken ranks with other unions to back the Remain motion.
The BBC's Laura Kuenssberg said this could "shift the balance" and increase the chance of Mr Corbyn being defeated.
With unions controlling half of the votes at the conference, their position is vital. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-49789938
