Could be a good plan for the government, just continually kick Brexit down the road until everyone forgets about it in 2039 or something.
That’s why I asked the question. I would hope that it’s not that bad, but do any of us know just how bad a No Deal Brexit would be...?
Well it's looking increasingly likely that there will be one, but I've no idea who would win either. Presumably it will be down to the DUP, and how safe they think they are in their own seats, anyone with a clue on that?

That’s what the idiot Cameron should have done...
Difficult to tell but we'd essentially be losing most of the frameworks within which we operate while currently in the EU and would have absolutely nothing to replace them with at all.
Like it was before free trade with eu. Life
What I find disturbing is that Brexiters are happy for the agreement to be voted down and Remainers are happy for it to be voted down, both sides thinking it means good news for them , one of those opinions is definitely wrong .
Which side is being conned yet again.

How can you lose your core policy vote by the biggest margin in history and still stay in office?
Have about two weeks worth of custard creams in my cupboard.
Have you noticed any common sense in UK politics in the past three years?
Part of me would rather have the deal accepted, despite being a Remainer. I can't see a second Referendum and can see no deal scenario coming. Absolutely masochistic.
Read up on how supermarket supply chains work, then it might not seem quite as unbelievable.
You may be right. Dangerous game being played.
Who will the French blame when their economy suffers with no deal?
Better let the EU know they've got to give the UK a deal. I'm not getting this unilateral motions at all.
Are you stocking up, a lot of French people think the Uk have already left. All our other borders are open , don't think that many care very much.
Wasnt it already discussed that the only option in such case is to basically wave every EU shipment through? Deal or no deal.
Listen mate Brexit means Brexit
Just gerron wivvit
It's the paperwork plus they've got to come back
By waving through I meant ignoring the paperwork, i.e pretending the UK is in the EU. Surely there has to be a way that with some emergency government order that can be achieved.
All the taxes have to be paid, possibly tariffs as well plus standards, list is endless. When I say coming back , they've got to return to the EU and they won't be waved through. Plus if it's no deal the UK will have very few licenced drivers/trucks and Europeans will be loathe to have their trucks stuck in the UK. It's fantasy talk by the Brexiters to think there will not be huge disruption.
So much depends on smoothness and no disruption.
The smallest disruption will have a major effect.
Additionally imagine if the UK did avoid all checks , physical and paperwork, it would be out of control in a very short space of time not withstanding counterfeit, smuggling etc.
I understand , but to not be a plan for this when no deal was in fact a very likely option for a considerable time is extremely damning for the entirety of government and legislation. It's just baffling that it is indeed plausible nobody knows what they are doing.
Shenanigans again:
Guardian said:
I couldn't agree more.
Brexit has brought into focus the ability of the politicians and they're under so much more scrutiny than ever before. Very few seem to know what they are doing. Amateurish is too flattering.
Do as you have been instructed!
I don't get this argument, it's a vote on her deal by proxy and would still be a humiliation. They can't be so deluded to think people will think otherwise.
Spending 2 years getting a deal to not put it to a vote is surely an even bigger feck up anyway
I feel like the actual cast of Yes Minister would be doing a better job today.
Isn't that in the queen's purview?
No idea.
They couldn't do much worse.
The other problem is that as Brexit has been one lie after the other from start to finish, how could they admit openly that there was a problem even if they did realise there were problems.
Brexit is supposed to deliver their fantasy, how could they admit that it will be a nightmare. Most of them are still in denial now, not only the government but the opposition as well.
Benn supposedly pulling his amendment in the morning to ensure the government lose their vote. A real chance to avoid a hard Brexit and they’re throwing it away to try and force an election.
Agreed. Even though many of them are dead.
527 MPs ish MPs against no deal.
Need the WA voted down and Parliament to take control of the process. Hopefully they then will do the right thing and withdraw article 50.
Excuse my ignorance, but does this mean the the House of Lords will reject any motion towards a No Deal outcome?
If this is the case, can/will House of Lords be able to actually and legally prevent the No Deal scenario from happening? If this is the case then either we have May's deal, a new renegotiated deal or we stay in EU?
