To do a straw poll on whether you're happy with where Brexit is heading?

[Bearbehind]

This isn't about the whys and wherefores of how we got here but, since no one I speak to IRL is happy with the path Brexit is leading us down and I've just seen a poll in the Metro strongly in favour of abandoning Brexit it got me wondering how wide spread it is.

This isn't supposed to be an argument thread or even how you voted, just Are you happy heading towards a hard Brexit

Yes or No

No

Very sad and very worried.

Attaching article from yesterday's Times for wowow

TM was a poor home secretary and will be an even poorer pm.

Not happy. Would even have taken a soft brexit but the free market right wing have taken over.

I wonder how those who voted for the NHS and regional aid will feel when the budgets are sliced and the good bits sold of to corporate chums.

Here's another article, wowow, where it's the world of business that's affected. Different newspaper.

Sunday Post this time reporting on Brain Drain in the NHS:

Another Bremoaning expert. Nobel prize winner thinking of renouncing British citizenship as a result of Brexit:

Who could blame Canada for seizing their opportunity to attract the international students we want to discourage?

And for those who think TM is a good thing, THIS is happening under her leadership as a direct result of her immigration policies as PM. A young mother of 23 will die of her leukaemia if she can't get a bone marrow match. She has an EXACT match in her sister, a teacher in Nigeria, who can't enter the country because Visa requirements must be the same for everyone. Please consider signing the petition. This is, today, quite simply a disgusting and frightening place to live:

No

maninawomansworld I'm sorry, you are happy with the current state of British politics?!?!

ARE YOU ON GLUE?

Whichever way you voted - we have an unelected PM, our currency is at a 168 year low, and racially aggravated assault and abuse has gone up by 70% in the last 6 months.

Which bit of this are you happy with?!

No

But I only wanted to stay to make changes in the EU not to support how the EU is run at the moment.

No

I believe that the single market would have a severely negative impact on this country's economy.

*leaving the single market

Genuine question, can the mum with lukemia go to Nigeria if her sister can't get here??

I think she is too ill to travel

No. But then I don't think May is going to be able to trigger Article 50 until the appeals before the High Court are heard and decisions made (there are two and if they loose they will go to the Supreme Court).

I also cannot see Northern Ireland going into Brexit and this will affect Scotland too. If and when Brexit happens it will most likely be just England and Wales and the UK will be dissolved.

Also May has a very slim majority in the HOC. It only takes 8 Cons to bring the government down and trigger an election. This isn't fantasy, it may happen.

Well let's hope that won't happen anytime soon because it would return the Tories to power with a huge majority

No.

TM is not just an incompetent, divisive, arrogant, mediocre dictator...

...I actually think she could not give two hoots about the UK as her actions are all about personal control and personal power grabbing at the direct expense of parliamentary democracy whilst this once great nation gets flushed down the global lavatory.

She's the antithesis of so-called British Values.

Just my humble opinion, as an ex-Tory and apparent liberal metropolitan elite citizen of nowhere

It may not return the Tories to power with a huge majority, especially if some parties put as part of the manifesto, a soft Brexit proposal, or a vote to the HOC as to whether or not to uphold the results of the referendum i.e. trigger article 50 (though this may have to happen anyway). The referendum is not automatically binding, unlike the referendum on adopting PR .

I voted to Remain, so clearly not. But they don't have a plan. Here's one for them:

1. Ensure we stay in the single market. That may have to be "single market lite" because of freedom of movement being a red line on both sides. But we could agree something slightly less than complete and open access to the single market based on freedom of movement for people with a job offer.

1. Anyone who was in the UK on the date of the referendum will have indefinite leave to remain (and when their kids reach 18, so will they). Obviously we need that to be reciprocal so all the British retirees can stay in Spain.

1. Ensure freedom of movement for students, tourists and occasional visits eg business trips. No visas. I could live with some sort of ESTA-type arrangement, but for longer than 2 years.

1. Ensure that EU laws on employment rights are enshrined in UK law - do not allow the ability to turn us into the US in future with 2 weeks holiday a year and being able to sack someone with no comeback. The EU could make this a condition of remaining in the Single Market.

I don't really know why they are not pursuing some sort of EEA-lite plan.

But no, they think it's better to annoy everyone, take us crashing out, crash the economy and wreck the country for a decade or more. Why exactly?

absolutely not..NO

If Theresa May had a backbone she'd stand up and cancel this madness

Far too early to judge yet I think. Those who voted remain clearly want it all to go pear shaped so they can blame the mess on the 'thick racist idiots' who voted out and the Brexit supporters are basically crossing fingers and hoping for the next.

I think long term it's in the balance.
