In reality I expect firstly, the Government to try again. If that fails some people think the Government would try to join the EEA. Others hope they would go back to Brussels and request a delay to Article 50. It is far from certain that the EU would agree to this but I guess they might if there was a second referendum.
I would guess at some can kicking although anything can happen. Parliament doesn’t seem to have a majority that believes in Brexit. So they’ll be torn between being democrats and not wanting to take the blame. Both with a view to electability to varying degrees of moral standards.
