Same as suziewoozie here. I also believe the hedge fund managers and disaster capitalist (I.e. Tory donors) are salivating at the thought of a no deal.

All quiet on the Boris babes front....?

Thank you for your answers.

Meryl are you saying that you think a 'no deal' scenario will yet be avoided?

Smileless2012 what is your current view on a 'no deal' exit from Europe?

I feel gobsmacked by it all even though I am a remainer. Just do not jump on me and murder me but it is a told you so situation.

As someone who voted to leave this is exactly how I thought it would go. It's not over yet. It will go to the 11th hour on Dec 31st.

Are you looking forward to the chaos on 1st Jan 2021, Meryl?

As someone else who voted leave I hope you're right MerylStreep but realistically 'no deal' was always a possibility.

Baroness Gisela Stuart (chair of Vote Leave) is on Question Time tonight - I wonder what her thoughts are.

Can I post as a Remain voter please? It’s exactly what I’ve always expected and it’s a disaster. I’ll keep my store cupboard topped up and make sure I’ve always got at least 4 weeks of my meds in stock.

It turns out that the deal wasn't oven-ready after all , doesn't it - Boris forgot the stuffing . Or maybe he had every intention of stuffing it at a later date?

I am afraid it was inevitable from the start. Both the EU and the UK are intransigent.
Apparently if we had the vote now 65% percent would vote to stay and that is only those who admit they are wrong!
I fear for my DC and DGC's futures.

Can I ask what the GN leave voters think about this without the thread descending into vitriol please?
