What Do You Think Will Happen On Brexit Day?

[KennDodd]

Do you think street parties, riots, candlelit vigils, what?

IdahoJones If they are carrying on with it, we must presume it’s not stupid

jasjas1973 I wished I’d know I had this much power I’d would of put a lot of other changes to this country, if only I knew I just had to tell the government and they would do as I say, They never normally listen when I’ve emailed them before

Rosst, you voted for it! so therefore you have to accept some responsibility in this, DC made it clear the decision would be respected and acted upon, you knew that at the time.
He didn't say "i'll go away and have think about it first"

I feel sure if it all goes really well, you wont be so shy in claiming your share of responsibility :)

I can't afford to shop at Waitrose which doesn't mean I am particularly poor. I voted Remain as did my elderly mother. My nephew who shops at Booths (google it) voted Leave.
The uk is full of contradictions. But only fucking idiots voted Leave.

Aaaaawwww - it would be sweet if it weren't so stupid naive

Rosstac thinks that the politicians wouldn't be going ahead with Brexit if it were stupid (Can't do the "tears of laughter" emoticon on my phone)

Who is going to break it to her that They. Don't. Care? Worse, that some of them stand to make shed loads of money from distaster capitalism and the fire sale of UK institutions. So they want this damn stupid thing done this damn stupid way. That they're putting party before country. That they don't care what happens on the island of Ireland. That they don't give a stuff about poor people.

That really is an example of naïveté on her part.

Kay Burley will be hyper.

PPPPPP
Proper Preparation Prevents Piss Poor Performance

The Millennium Bug was dealt with as a real risk and proper preparation meant that it all went OK.
But that took years of hard work by thousands of people.

Brexit was never thought out beforehand.
And is still not being prepared for
so the performance is likely to be piss poor.

Putin must be utterly delighted.

prettybird What the government will go ahead even if it causes as many of you say social unrest, possible riots , the collapse of the country, no food for them to eat, well I’m surprised

jasjas1973 I voted Labour in the last GE, I didn’t get what I wanted, who do I send my strongly worded email too ?

@Rosstac - read your history books. The government carries on. It may be shit all over but it carries on. Even under martial law it carries on.

jasjas1973 I don’t remember DC saying we would have a second referendum or a people’s vote, but that hasn’t stopped people going on and on and on about it

DC is history.

And there isn't enough time to organise a second vote.

That said, cobbling some sort of excuse like a new referendum or another GE might be enough to pause negotiations and buy us more time. Even if the outcome is the same because no fucker wants to admit they were wrong. Worth the gamble?

Rosstac that is a diversion and irrelevant.

You knew it would enacted, as i did, you just gave it soooo little thought.
Now you bleat on about all the injustices you ve apparently suffered as to why you voted leave.
Now you seek to blame the Tories just in-case it all goes wrong.

If there is a no deal Brexit, the sky will look different
because the airports will be shut

bellinisurge That’s what I like, a remainer uses something DC as evidence, when a leaver mentions DC he’s history
There is not enough time for a 2nd ref, but what then would you accept it if it’s the same or best of 3 if it’s changed or do they set a mark, must be over 65% or so to remain or it will never end

I think the financial markets will have a rough few weeks. There is always money to be made out of upheaval.

The rest depends on having a deal.
If we have a deal, we will have a transition period and maybe not much will change.
If we crash out no deal, who knows it could be a bit of a free for all. Probably be a bit messy.

I'm a prepper @Rosstac . I would rather things didn't go badly but my concern for any Leave voters suffering because of it is zero. They literally brought any shit that happens down on the rest of us and all I can do is make sure my family is fed and warm. What a ridiculous thing to be realistically thinking about in the UK in 2018. All for some stupid notion of sovereignty. Which we already had.

Blame the government they could stop it and they shouldn’t have started it, they were given an answer they could have ignored it, if your young child asked for a real gun for Xmas you would still buy it for him with live bullets because that’s what they want or would you knowing better say no and explain why, won’t stop them wanting one will it

Are you serious, Rosstac? Leave voters aren't children. If you're old enough to vote, you're old enough to actually research what you're voting for.

Latest meaningless slogan to repeat is 'I haven't got a crystal ball'

I first heard the "crystal ball" line trotted out shortly after the referendum, Helmet.

They've already had two years with their heads stuck in the sand.
I genuinely believe that despite everything they all thought the brakes would be put on at the last minute, and the referendum would be overturned.
Well now they've been caught with their pants down.
And we are the ones who are going to suffer.

bellinisurge Why don’t you blame the government? We just gave an answer to a question, there might have been numerous reasons for people voting the way they did, the government did have to give us the vote ( yes rise of UKIP, DC campaign pledge) they could have set % levels of vote and turnout, they didn’t, they could have sold your opinion is noted, they could have prepared for a leave vote, decided what they wanted, hope to achieve before issuing A50, the list goes on and on, but no it’s the people who voted leave your upset with, why not the government, we had a general election you could have all voted LD to stop Brexit, but no 80% of people voted for parties that said they would leave the CU/SM, it’s just as much your fault

It's my 41st birthday so I will be drunk and not care! My Birthday trumps all else.

I suppose I might have a Brexit party - sort of like Eurovision, but where we win.

I'd better stockpile cheap prosecco just in case...

I did vote Leave though

@Rosstac - why should I blame the government. The referendum was clear - Leave or Remain. Vote Leave wins and everything that follows is on every idiot who voted for it.

Life will go on

Working on the assumption that the transition period will have been extended by that point I am thinking not much. If we truly have a no deal, who knows but at least I won't be in UK.

@midgesforever there is only the possibility of a transition period if we have a deal in the first place. This two years since TM triggered A50 is the transition period. That's it.
