The amount of people that don't know the ramifications of a no deal is staggering. It really is catastrophic stuff for the UK.

What would you have wanted: For May to remain, or for Boris Johnson to take her place? Theresa May - I mean, she's fucking useless and I still hope this shitshow government collapses (because there is literally nobody competent) but have you seen the epic twats lining up to take her place? At this stage, I'll go for an ardent pro-EU politician. At this stage, only Caroline Lucas and the SNP seem to be making any fucking sense. Even John McDonnell in all fairness to him is making much more sense than his so called leader in Labour, Corbyn might be best advised to fuck off and let him take the place. I'd take Keir Starmer is a heartbeat.

Cameron caused this whole clusterfuck, he can GTF. May is an abomination but possibly keeping the crazy "no deal" wolves from the door. I don't think (hope) she'd go for no deal, at some point point surely she'll have to pivot to a GE or PV when her horrible deal is voted down? This deal though, because of her stupid red lines, is the best on offer. She can't go back to Brussels and ask for more, the backstop is the only solution to the NI border issue and any deal she tries to get, so she's just playing for time. She is fucked though, a no deal would contravene the Good Friday Agreement which is an international peace treaty, her deal will be voted down whatever happens in Parliament and any other deal requires a backstop. The only way forward for her now is a PV or GE.

And here's the draft parliamentary legislation that will allow ministers to tell pharmasits to override doctors and limit meds during the meds shortage!

Tens of thousands of lorries a day immediately on Brexit day will need customs checks at ports and we don't have the infrastructure to do this. That's a fact and it will clog up ports and even airports. Brexiteers just don't seem to get this. I suppose none of us really know what will happen, but with most things you can use the data available to try and predict what might happen. One thing that will surely happen if we don't have a deal when we leave is that things such as imports could potentially be stopped or delayed coming into the UK from the EU for - hence various drug companies and supermarkets stock-piling and the government making plans to turn the M26 into a lorry park.

"Noone knows the result of Brexit" is madness. Simply stopping tarriff free frictionless movement of goods will have a massive impact on the price of goods and will negatively affect industry and jobs. It's pretty simple to understand that, no "project fear", just simple logic. That's only one negative impact.And saying the EU collapsing is also mad, they've been rock solid through the Brexit negotiations and polling in favour of the EU has increased in EU countries since Brexit. They're not collapsing. People feel like this is true democracy because they can participate on such an important topic but the thing is that average Joe can't comprehend the scope of said referendum and what's the real outcome because nobody really cares so they vote by feelings and follow populistic idiots. And now they're fucked Is the average Joe able to chose a member of parliament?
Nobody knows what will be the result of Brexit. I think the UK will benefit from it in the long run. Especially because the EU will collapse in the next 5-10 years. Wheter it will be because of a new eurocrisis, immigration, an European Army or becoming the United States of Europe. The EU should have never become the EU, but should have stayed the EEC.

New trade deals with other countries barely adding any benefit, whilst losing the EU FTA substantially negatively affects the UK (also check the migration effects) . That loss to GDP is pretty catastrophic for all of us.

From the treasury, every region of the UK will be substantially worse off under every Brexit scenario. Will the adults ever take over Brexit and stop this shit show?

Vote of no confidence. Out of curiosity, what's the UK's version of impeachment for a Prime Minister? I'm sure there's an equivalent?

Cameron wanted to settle the Tory infighting about Europe and shut them up. Bojo, Gove etc saw it as an opportunity for a power grab. The NI border has always Brexits achillies heel because two differing economic regulatory countries need customs checks thus a hard border and this contravenes the Good Friday Agreement. There's a large section of the "establishment" like Rees-Mogg etc who see this an opportunity to deregulate workers rights (say good bye to paid maternity leave etc which is enshrined in EU law) and business and carve up the NHS to sell it off to the Americans. May got the best deal she could because there is no good deal, the best deal is actually staying in the EU, everything else is shit for the UK I still think no brexit is the aim. I think the referendum result went the wrong way and caught the Establishment off guard. Camerons hubris got the better of him and he thought he could easily win the vote and shut down his critics. I also think the strategy over the past two years was to push Corbyn into backing remain and call for a new vote. FBPE, Ckucka etc. Then fix the new vote to make sure remain wins while letting Labour take the flak for betraying the leave voters. Getting the Tories off the hook with the electorate while destroying Labour's core vote demographic. Whatever you think about his politics Corbyn has really fucked them over by refusing to be bounced into backing Remain. I still think there will be no brexit or brexit in name only.

May seems dead set against it. As it is, its May deal (which is awful and looks dead) a no deal (which is a disaster) or no Brexit. Its crunch time. So after May's shit deal is voted down (her own fault for triggering A50 when she did and backing herself into a corner with her stupid red lines) , we head towards March 29 and the disaster of a no deal. A no deal I think is the most likely outcome atm. Fuck me, get stockpiling folks. I think another ref is a good possibility too.

Post Brexit can the UK participate in 1/ Eurovision 2/ Euro cup I expect if Australia gets into Eurovision, then the “Euro” requirement isn’t applied strongly Yes but itll struggle to buy medicines, food stuffs, etc etc. Will have no regulations(all done through the EU atm) on medicines, foods etc etc have no regulations on passport control from the EU at ports not to mention the Northern Ireland problem and will also be the only country in the world with no trade deals. So in the event of a hard Brexit the UK is fucked.

Do Taco Bell sell handjobs from Donald? If not I don’t think Jordan will be interested mate. Are there Taco Bell's in the U.K.? If so, get yourself a chicken chalula and some nacho fries.... Gracias. Sadly, theres no Taco Bell in the UK.

Brace for impact everyone. The UK government is to send out advice to households and business on what to do in the event of a hard Brexit which is looking very likely now . Food rationing, medicine shortages, ports closing etc. This shit is about to get very real. 8 months and counting.
