  1. Full Brexit with "no EU deal" on the 29th March.

  2. Request Extension to article 50 to allow a general election and new negotiations.

  3. Request Extension to article 50 to allow cross party talks and a new deal to be put to EU.

  4. Request Extension to article 50 to allow a second referendum on 1. Remain in EU or 2. Full Brexit.

  5. Table a motion in parliament to Remain in EU WITHOUT a referendum.

  6. I don't know or I don't care anymore

Results are only viewable after voting.
  1. I don't know whether ther will be civil unrest, but the government is planning for it.

    Here's a good clip showing Brits refusing to accept Thatchers shit policies.

  9. Didn't that happen because everyone was against the poll tax. The whole brexit thing is more divided or that's how its being reported. I personally can't see there being much trouble.
     
  10. The parallel was the Brits refusing shit from their government, in a very similar way that the Frenchies are refusing merde from theirs.

    Post Brexit trouble or riots? I would agree with you short term. If the economy does falter with people losing jobs plus further cuts in services etc after eight years of austerity riots are quite likely imo.

  11. What about if the government get their way and we just remain in the EU, do you think there will be protests in that case ?
     
  12. "I predict a riot"
     
    • Agree Agree x 3
  13. If we (you) crash out with no deal, it will be worse IMO. Laughing at the UK government beta testing port chaos with 150 trucks when the real number is huge "The Port handled 2,601,162 lorries in 2017". Cant be bothered with the maths but you get the picture, thats just Dover..
    Any hard Brexit WILL bring chaos and civil unrest to follow tout de suite. It will make the gilet jaune situation look tame.

  14. Only social media ranting, Boris posturing & trying for a comeback, Mogg sermons & the like. I can't see the Brexiteers rioting unless something hits them personally. For example we remain & the EU passes a law putting our military under their control. The Remainers won't riot either unless the economy tanks...
     
  15. Yes.

    A catch 22 situation has been created.
     
  16. I don't think the government want to remain, the parliament is a different matter, traitors the lot of them.
     
  17. Just me, but most of the social media ranting has been from the remainers.
    I think it may depend how the government ‘cancels’ leaving - to me this is the worst case, people will be upset that the original vote has been ignored.
     
  18. The trouble with that ^^ is that is was at a time leading off the end of Punk, people who used to meet in pubs and in the days of football hooligans were we were world champions.

    You're unlikely to get that kind of response from hipster millenial snowflakes unless you steal their advocado and wheat grass smoothie's. Even then, they will abuse the police one minute, then be asking them to arrest the counter protesters for saying something they didn't like about them on twitter
     
  19. In theory, in the event of no-Brexit, there will need to be a new form of government imposed upon the nation. On the basis that the old version of government has ceased to exist.

    Whether the majority cares about, or even notices, this is another matter.
     
  20. This is the lesson that hasn't been learnt by the democrats in the u.s. and by remainers in the U.K. They confuse a small group shouting loudly on te internet with the silent many in a voting booth.

    Funny thing on the brexit vote 46,500,001 were registered to vote but only 33,577,342 voted. More than anything else I feel it shows those who say remaining was important, compared to getting out of bed and actually voting, it wasn't that important at all for many remainers.
