All of the postive things about being in the EU or better and non of the negative.
If people would just be positive and believe in Brexit it would be a success. That's all it takes.
Brexit is basically a spirit bomb, according to these people.
The airlines were warning about this a few months ago because their planning departments were fast approaching the day they needed to plan flights post-Brexit.
Back then I predicted they the government would likely rush something through if it became clear that flights would actually stop, forcing the airlines to pick up the pieces at the last minute. My prediction had not changed.
Very recently the ECJ ruled that the UK could call brexit off just by officially revoking Article 50. This would be easily the safest thing to do from the point of view of policy. However this would likely have very severe political consequences. Even with the prospect of holding another referendum, the result could be civil unrest of a kind not seen in the UK since the Napoleonic era.
I'm sure people will look at the facts and rationally assess the pros/cons, inevitably realize that hard-brexit is against their wallets and be grateful to the people responsible for a 2nd referendum.
Apparently a second vote based on more accurate information is "undemocratic".
The country is run by morons.
I've got a few 'colleagues' on my Facebook friends list who still support leaving the EU and yet have photo albums of all their European holidays. It blows my mind,
Uh... I'm pretty sure they did so because of their own corrupt and decadent ruling elites.With how repugnant, uncaring and out of touch with reality our British ruling class is, I can see why France had a revolution...
Yeah, my poor attempt due to rage was essentially me trying to say that I can understand the desire to burn down the "Ruling Class" who are doing nothing at all but driving the country towards, poverty, starvation, medical shortages and a reduction of rights people have been born with.
As in the British ruling class currently being The Tories.
I'm all for Brexit disaster porn, but this is simply never going to happen.
Hopefully the end of May comes sooner than usual
Was planning on visiting London next christmas for a few weeks then possibly travelling around Europe: Prague/Switzerland.

Isn't she safe from a leadership challenge for a year now? She's truly the living dead. Prime minister in name only.
A leadership challange from within her own party, but not a vote of no confidence in the government itself from the opposition. (Which I have no doubt she'd survive too, sadly)
Her winning the leadership challenge actually works really well for the Conservative party going forward. It will play into the narrative that they tried to stop her and her 'bad deal' when shit hits the fan and the media will naturally back this narrative up, so we end up in a situation where it's Theresa May and her Tory cronies and the Conservative party who were fighting for the future of the UK.
People need to an easy to follow story and May is so hated already that people won't question anything the likes of Johnson, Mogg, etc have been doing in the background that made it impossible to reach a deal that didn't destroy the UK economy for decades.

I'm not defending leave. I'm stating that there aren't really that many polls which suggest Remain would run away with it in another referendum, only ones which split the leave vote.
