If it comes down to the wire. If the EU refuse an extension and our only choices are revoke or no deal which way do you think it will go?

What would it actually take to convince you it was a bad idea, what facts do you need?

Were not leaving. The EU will extend. And extend. Then there will another referendum. And we will stay

This. The EU doesn't want us to leave so will give us any extension that we ask for.

If we do leave, whether it's via a deal or no deal I'll be very, very surprised.

Alexalee · 29/03/2019 22:11

Any from you op... you have given absolutely none... and you will have no facts... just opinions because you cant see into the future

HepzibahHumbug · 29/03/2019 22:13

Okay 'patient face on'
Alexalee: do you think the lowering of the value of the pound might have made it more expensive for our supermarkets to import food grown outside the UK?
If yes: do you think those food importing companies might have shied away from immediately passing on all those increased costs to us consumers? And that as a result of this reluctance to pass these increased buying costs their profits have been hit?

If no: please explain why so many major retailers, including supermarkets, are in trouble?

PJLove80 · 29/03/2019 22:14

I actually made no statement about my opinion in the op either way, was just asking people what they thought would happen in that instance. I am not trying to change your opinion and quite frankly as I have said earlier if the huge amount of credible data that is out there doesn’t nothing some stranger on the internet says is going to.

Hepzibah... why do you think products have shrunk but prices stayed roughly the same? So people still get what they want but dont feel a hit in their pocket... almost all items have shrunk by 10-20% since the vote
Those retailers are struggling because they have been hammered by new online stores like boohoo and Amazon... just like blockbuster they didn't move on with the times

everythingisginandroses · 29/03/2019 22:29

Can we deport Amazon after Brexit, then? I hate Amazon.

Buddywoo · 29/03/2019 22:32

May will put her deal up against whatever indicative vote wins and her deal will go through next week.

You would hope that parliament and the PM would not be so utterly stupid as to let it go to No Deal, but given what we've witnessed over the last three years, I'd say all bets are off at this point. I pray for Revoke or a long extension, but have no confidence that common sense will prevail.

wigglypiggly · 29/03/2019 22:39

Hope we leave, bloody disgrace if we dont.

Amongstthetallgrass · 29/03/2019 22:41

Tbh im shocked at all the pro brexit bids on bbc sky news.

Why start now?

BlitheringIdiots · 29/03/2019 22:42

No deal please

PJLove80 · 29/03/2019 22:44

I just don’t understand why anyone would want no deal? It is as always those with the least that will be hit the most.

No thanks. Sado-masochism is ok between consenting adults, but not as a basis for running the country.

MeganBacon · 29/03/2019 22:46

Mervyn King was saying today that no deal wouldn't be too bad. And he's not paid by anybody to say anything anymore. I honestly don't know what to believe. I have wanted to Revoke for a long time but realistically, it would be fraught with its own set of problems now that there's so much water under the bridge.

Anothertempusername · 29/03/2019 22:48

@Alexalee business and economic figureheads and experts have told us that the cost of food will rise sharply at the very least. Do you understand the pressure this puts on the average person and therefore the economy? And that's just with the price of food rising.

Please go away and educate yourself in basic economics and then come back and we can have a civilised conversation.

waits for @Alexalee to tell us all she graduated with a first in Economics from Oxbridge

Amongstthetallgrass · 29/03/2019 22:53

The best example of why people cannot have a proper discussion on this.

Believe or not there is a middle ground of people that are so fed up with vitriol from both sides that they are sick to death of it

ZenNudist · 29/03/2019 22:54

Revoke. But batshit self interested tories will try for no deal to the last.

EstrellaDamn · 29/03/2019 22:55

Revoke.

Smileymoon · 29/03/2019 23:01

I hope it is revoke but I think it will be no deal. I think most of parliament realise this will be very bad but don't have the guts to do anything other than what they think the ever so slightly larger half of the voting public voted for whether that ends up wrecking the economy and the opportunities of our young people.

In a nutshell

DustyDiamond · 29/03/2019 23:44

I'm a leaver, I'd have taken the WA today, will be unimpressed but ok with EEA/EFTA or common market 2.0 if needs be.
If they're all rejected then I'm 100% no deal on 12th April.

I don't know how you can read something like this:

And not be concerned about the effects of no-deal.
