I can see it narrowly passing.

Originally posted by cryrst The last line is desperate. You spend months telling us we didnt know what we voted for. Now you wonder if all leavers wanted to break up the UK.

In 2016 I hadn't really considered that the break up of the UK might be the ultimate outcome but the more I think about it I feel it could be. When I really think deeply about the history of the Union, and the war of independence in Ireland which resulted in it's partition, it seems that Brexit could easily be the plug hole down which it all drains away. I just asked if anyone on the leave side had thought about this and if they agreed that this was a possibility whether they thought this was a price worth paying. Seems a reasonable question to me.

I'm gonna say this once. If BJ gets this over the line and we - at least technically - leave before the end of the month the Tories will regroup and keep power for some time. BJ will have earned it. Labour will implode as all their factions combust corbyn gets ousted and the moderate parliamentary party spend the next 5 years in opposition wrestling power from the fruitloop left. Meanwhile the lib dems moment will have gone and they will disappear into the political abyss. That said things wont go entirely as the ultra right posters on here would hope. BJ works for BJ and he cannot continue to operate as a voice for the ERG and the rest of the swivel eyed loons. They will have served their purpose and will be conveniently sidelined as he pursues an esssentially liberal agenda. Those hoping that leaving will result in the working population moving into a low wage zero hours market living purely to pay taxes to fund their generous pensions and other benefits will be sorely disappointed. Immigration will be bearly touched as most of the economic migrants you detest are non EU and the issue was never free movement or laissez faire regulations but our under resourced sieve like border controls. That issue will grumble on. There is also the risk that us remoaners were right all along and that our predictions of doom were not just project fear. Sadly unless a sensible centrist labour party emerges thank of effective opposition will mean more years of hung parliaments and political stasis. One thing is certain - none of the other 27 would be dondaft as to follow our lead unless there is a clear and obvious surge in our economy and living standards.

Do you not think it could be the emotional link to the UK that caused leavers to vote leave. I doubt many would be rubbing their hands together with a glee that 'good old blighty' will be independent and on it's own; like 100s of years ago, aside from the fact that we are all thick. BTW Do you know what the EU had planned for the next four years or so. I think your clutching at straws about this. It does seem like a bit of tarring of leavers as far right nationalist bigoted individuals. Its loaded dan and steeleye, fill your boots.
