You can't be suggesting that real jobs and incomes (and prices) won't be affected?

As long as they go your way.

People voted for Brexit back in 2016, they didn't vote what kind of brexit they want. When faced with a no deal brexit, it's only fair if the people are heard in regards to what kind of brexit they want. If you have a problem with that then it's you that's 'destroying democracy' since you seem to want to strip people of their right to have a say seemingly out of fear that it won't go your way.

Remain isn't a kind of Brexit though. I just do not believe that if we had another referendum and it went in the way of Remain that we could put the last 2 years behind us and carry on as normal. If we want to go back to the EU in 10 years time, then have another referendum then and if the majority is to seek to re-join then so be it, but let us implement the result of the 2016 referendum first.

My original post stated that I'd have a vote whether people wanted No Deal or not. Chuff assumed that the brexit she wanted is the same that everyone else wants and completely misunderstood what I was saying. I think it's important to gauge whether the country wants a no deal brexit before we are thrown into it.

If people voted against No Deal Brexit but opposed any of deals that the EU offered than a do over off the original referendum is the only realistic option. If the 'will of the people' is still the same as it was back in 2016 then leavers have nothing to fear, it's only people who are scared that votes won't go their way that try to shut such votes down.

If people voted to leave in that referendum then I'd say just go for a no deal and let them suffer the consequences.

i am getting to the point now where I just don't care what way we end up going as long as it gets resolved one way or another without further delay. Whatever way we go, people will just have to make the best of it.

4chan are internet alt-right trolls. They aren't doing this to support the petition, they're doing it to try and screw it up on behalf of your side. Which is perfectly in keeping with the chicanery used for the referendum.

The problem is that we all lose when this goes through, especially if it's a no deal.
