Default If May suddenly announced brexit was off , how would you feel?

For me personally , I don't think I would be that bothered.life would go on as before.

Very let down.
The public had a referendum and the result should follow.

I would think many people would feel betrayed, we had a vote and we voted out , so we should go with that ,had it gone the other way those that wanted to leave would be expected to accept it.

I wouldn't particularly care either way as it's going to be ****ing carnage regardless. I imagine if Brexit was called off, even if it was the result of another referendum in which Brexit lost, there would be a sharp rise in Right Wing terrorism.

A terrorist killed Jo Cox in the lead up to the vote, god knows how bad things would get if Brexit was cancelled.

also this though.. somehow cannot see a lot of these leave voters being content with marches and such. There WILL be violence and riots. Of course thats not to say all leave voters are neanderthals, but it does appear to attract..unsavoury people who are just thinly hiding racism and such..or not even hiding it anymore as they feel emboldened to be public with it. Honestly, since the vote, loads of people I considered 'friends' or close to friends have shown their true colours.suddenly they are all 'kill any refugee who turns up here' and such Its frightening.

cant see that happening at all, I think most people both leave and remain are fed up to the back teeth of the bungling and incompetence and sheer arrogance of some of our MPs and want a resolution either out or in but not this limbo we have been in for the past 2 years

You're in for a shock then, because even if the disastrous brexiteers eventually get their way, when they wake up to the reality of a post EU Britain, what this group of non-emotional, insular, thinking people will need, is a group to blame for the fact that they didn't end up with rainbows and ponies.

Commonwealth brown people will get it, as will remainers for sabotaging the deal they could get. none of it, will of course, be their fault. They voted and they won, everything else is secondary.

I personally think the amount of actual violence or rioting would be minimal. There sure would be a LOT of angry facebook statuses though. Most of these people (and to be honest, most people in general) are all bark.

You're far more optimistic than I am.

It is legitimately the only sensible option currently. Even if it means taking a couple of years to construct a VIABLE Brexit strategy and then re-running the vote, the idea that crashing out like headless chickens is currently a good option "becoz teh British Public voted 4 it" is just madness. Reckless pride.

I would agree with this. Its a ****ing huge decision, and the fact that there was no ****ing plan when the vote happened is not the fault of those who voted leave of course (nor Mays fault, though some appear to blame her for that..), nor is the fact that May has royally ****ed up all negotiations, but its not the sensible thing to do to just..leave with still no plans! I don't understand how anyone can think it is..

I’d be happy with that, but that’s because I voted to remain

Relief that I don’t have to hear about it again.

I’m at a point now of thinking just do it or don’t do it due the mess that Parliament has made of it.

I would also have less trust in the UK political system(if that’s possible ) and probably wouldn’t vote again but i’m not passionate about leaving now.

The whole thing since the vote has been handled horrifically.May’s negotiation skills are awful and Parliament have no respect for the result.

Well that's the thing, isn't it... It's been a complete farce and yet we're supposed to believe that the same people are going to run the country well independently, and broker amazing independent trade deals? The evidence would suggest that they're just not competent.

Yeah I don’t trust the Tories or Labour to make a success of it.

Also if no deal is to be a real negotiating position you need to be fully prepared for it.Planning should have started after the vote in 2016.
Otherwise the EU won’t take it seriously.

Go hard or go home.

Companies taking orders right now for deliveries in greater than 1 month have no idea how to process them. It's completely ridiculous.

Even if parliament agreed a way forward this week, there isnt enough time left to pass the relevant legislation necessary, and for a no deal, it's much, much worse.

I do believe our parliament should be investigated for treason as they are not acting in the best interests of the country.

Should have started before the vote. There should have been viable plans for both possible outcomes, and then plans ontop of plans for if Europe rejected what we want (which was always going to be likely really..we wanted all the good parts and none of the bad) and any way any of that could possibly go. Before the vote even happened. Cameron ****ed it up, then May made it worse. Idiots. I also don't think anyone else would have done any better tbh. And all of this, because Cameron crapped his pants about Farage gaining a bit popularity
