I'd probably put an extension of Article 50 and a second referendum at about 70%

[Burney]

No public appetite??? I would suggest the remainers would quite gladly have a second one, so that is nearly 50% of the people that voted last time

Currently, polling is at 50:40 against with 10% don't knows. That simply isn't enough to justify a second referendum.

Also, among Tory voters, those numbers stand at 74-18 against. So, the question is: what Tory government in its right mind would choose to pursue a course of action so profoundly contrary to its voters' wishes?

I would suggest that all remainers would jump on a second vote.. and all depends how it was worded, I can't see another yes or no vote as that got us into the mess we are now, it would have to be remain or a yes for whatever the proposal May agreed with the EU is

Anything other than a Yes/No vote would mean essentially gerrymandering the vote to ensure there is no outcome other than one Remainers like, so I'm not sure that'll fly. As Rees-Mogg put it to Caroline Lucas, that choice would in effect mean having everything on the ballot except what was voted for in June 2016.

What's to stop a new law being put forward to avoid No Deal, by the way?

Well there is the nice legal question of what 'No Deal' would actually mean for a start and how one defines that in law. Then there is the fact that, constitutionally, Parliament may not bind its successors, so you cannot make it perpetually impossible to leave the EU on whatever terms you choose.
And finally, there's time. It would require an Act of Parliament that repealed the existing EU Withdrawal Act. That would take months to achieve - since it's unthinkable that such a significant Act of Parliament would be accelerated in such a way as to skip the committee stages.
