They will also be angry that they were lied to ("Out Means Out, "No deal is better than a bad deal", etc)
For all of your arguments, nothing is likely to concern the Tories more than losing that election.
Right now, I'd hazard a guess that Labour will win......if they play the right hand...and many of these discussions will be screwed because that was not planned for.
Watch out for the Tories swinging round to get behind the leave thinkers.
And about time!
Nothing I say or do will influence whatever the outcome will be but I do find it quite amusing when people churn out those inane empty sound bytes “project fear” and “thwarting the will of the people” rather than compose a considered response as you have done

Remainers are the priveleged rich.
Brexiteers are working for a living.

Re: No-deal Brexit impacts
HiOur MPs are now demanding police protection outside Parliament because of unruly demonstrations.
What did they expect?
They set the tone with their playground scenes inside Parliament.
They have messed up Brexit big time, what did they expect?
Totally out of touch with real life.

It seems that non peaceful demonstration or the threat of such action seems to be an accepted practice by leave voters. We have already had one case where it has been taken to it’s extreme.
This is, or I thought was a country that permitted freedom of speech and opinion within the bounds of common decency and law.
This freedom allowed the eurosceptics to voice their opinion without recrimination since the first UK joined the EEC. This is a democratic right.
Why do leave voters want to deny the right to free speach and opinion and and try to intimidate those who hold different view to their own.
The referendum does not remove the right for people to hold and express views that are counter to the result. That also includes MP’s

I have to say it both sides which are guilty.
Anna Soubry, a remainer, was called a Nazi.
I have been labelled a xenophobic little englander by some remainers.
I am neither, nor am I stupid.
The EU was simply not for me, the last straw being Merkel.

Abuse is rife on both sides. No one has claimed the moral high ground.
You may have have noticed my own battle, on this forum, with Solasch.
He effectively called me a Nazi claiming my posts led him to that position.
Like Soubry, I refused to engage with the accusation by denyiny it and demanded the evidence..........None forthcoming!
When Solasch failed in that that I asked for an apology.............None forthcoming.
Soubry and I are on different sides of the Brexit argument but we both know that throwing out false and unsubstantiated slurs such as Nazi, xenophobe and racist is fundamentally wrong and a false narrative and we will not tolerate that .
