To be clear, I don't mean it being up for debate and some people thinking it will be bad, but rather it becoming straight up fact upon examination that untangling from the EU is all but impossible without creating a failed state.

In that case I would 100% blame the government of the time for offering a vote on something when they didn't even know if it would be possible to realistically make it happen

Indeed. It is ****ing ridiculous that the vote went ahead without ANYONE knowing wtf would happen if it was out. Noone expected it, but even so, these things should be thought out beforehand. Its clear noone knows what to do given Cameron crapped his pants and left and May is stuttering on about it now. I think shes a bit crazy personally for choosing to take leadership while this steaming pile of shite is going on. Personally, I can see the only way we can continue to trade the way we do, is to allow freedom of movement aswell and I do think the Eu will stick to that. And if we do that, a lot of peoples reasons for voting out are no longer 'valid' as the majority (not all) voted because of immigration.
