I'm not afraid to admit I'm terrified

[StealthPolarBear]

I really am. It feels like we're hurtling towards no deal Brexit with a coward and idiot at the helm who couldnt organise a booze up in a brewery.
What are we heading for? Huge economic crash? War?

[DippyAvocado]

I think tonight's results are likely to cement the fact that the country is still completely split down the middle over the issue of Brexit. Nobody is going to be able to find a compromise at this point.

Really we should just take the emotion out of it and revoke Article 50 on economic grounds but I posted on another thread that hardcore leavers won't accept that Brexit will be an economic disaster until it happens. The emotions are too entrenched by now. I feel a second referendum will be necessary but still too close to definitively settle the matter.

The whole fiasco is crippling our parliamentary system so nothing is getting done.

[StealthPolarBear]

It took me to the bottom of the page. Nothing to do with your post. How disappointing.
How's the arse?

[Wolfiefan]

Stealth if you give me piles I will do far worse than Boris you.

[StealthPolarBear]

If you want a second opinion drop your trousers and show it to a former London mayor.

[averylongtimeago]

Stealth you are not alone in how you feel. I am also afraid of what is happening- the rise of far right politics, curbs to free speech, loss of freedoms we take for granted.

And a bunch of self serving hypocrites in charge.

[Wolfiefan]

Trust me. The EU will happily send us packing with no fucking deal at all if I start dropping my trousers.

[Dockray]

I'm scared stiff as well. Between Brexshit and climate change I seriously wonder what future my kids will have.

[Etino]

urgh

[Wolfiefan]

I’m watching Chernobyl. Makes me think we aren’t quite in such dire straits.

[BishopofBathandWells]

You're not alone OP, I too feel really worried for the future. I suspect I'd give less of a shit if I hadn't had my DD a year ago, because I'd only have myself to look out for, but the future looks quite bleak at the moment and I worry what it's going to be like for her.

[StealthPolarBear]

I think the economic downturn we're about to have will overshadow 2008 and will last until my children are about my age now.
With the associated risk in mental ill health and suicide, poverty, misery and yes, war.

I watched the 2 episodes of storyville about brexit from the EU perspective. The tory government is a complete and utter joke. As a Scot, I'm just hoping for independence.

[StealthPolarBear]

And on that cheery note

[Dockray]

2 seats for brexit in the NE.

[StealthPolarBear]

Oh goodie that's where I am. And bloody Nissan.

[tinytemper66]

I can't believe that Cardiff and Pembroke have voted for the Brexit party!

[StealthPolarBear]

Turkeys. Fucking turkeys. Pretty much plucking and basting themselves

[anthisan]

Stealth I'm with you, really scared and depressed.

[StealthPolarBear]

Oh a glass of wine and a shag is all you need. Says someone whose interests do not extend beyond the end of their own nose.

[Dockray]

Yup. The no deal brexit predictions for the NE were dire for the economy.

[Antigonads]

Who are we going to war with?

[StealthPolarBear]

Well the unemployment will give them plenty of time to sit and admire their blue passports. That they won't be able to afford to use.

[ssd]

I can't understand the working classes voting en masse for brexit. I don't know anyone who voted for brexit here in Glasgow. Why someone on min wage like me would think the tories are out to help them with brexit is beyond me.

[StealthPolarBear]

Do you not agree that war often follows time of political and economic uncertainty?

[Gronky]

I think the economic downturn we're about to have will overshadow 2008

In what specific areas? For example: lending, house prices, exports, value of Sterling, domestic/foreign investor confidence, unemployment, salaries.
