The scramble begins to take over the Tories.  Which has to come up with a viable Brexit Plan by 31 Oct, that the Take it Leave it EU will reject.

Looks like the UK will "Crash Out", but the give that the markets seem unfazed by the prospect, I'll bet dollars to donuts that the doom and gloom prognostications are way, way, way off.  In fact, I think the opposite will be true, that British economy will grow once unshackled from the EU.

Which if that is the case, might tempt others to test the Frexit, Itexit,, Polexit, Hunxit, and others.

The only problem will be the inter-Irish Border.  Interesting times ahead.

Disbelieve prognostications by the smartest and most learned people around?

Optimist.

You must have forgotten the Y2K horror, Algore's 2006 prediction that we only had 10 years left due to global warming, the Mayan end of creation prophecy which hit in 2012, and Hillary's election night landslide in November 2016.

I don't think the Maya actually predicted a calamity in 2012, that's just when their calendar ended.  (reminds me, I need to play Pacal again in Civ 5, and nuke everybody in 2012)  Their actual calamity came much earlier; if they were still around in 2012 the calendar might very well start over for another however many baktuns. (sp?)  They weren't here to say.

Not to mention all those religious sects whose members sold all their earthly goods and gathered on a hilltop for the assumption of the faithful ... which didn't occur on schedule. Whereupon their leader consulted his oracles, divined the source of the error, and issued a revised prognostication. Which likewise came and went without the predicted end of the world taking place.

So some learned meteorologists misinterpreted the Mayans back in December 2012? Say it ain't so!

Good, she has been working tirelessly to keep the UK subservient to the globalists.

Hopefully they get a pro nationalist, pro USA government out of this mess.

We need a reset with the UK. They will need to punish those who were undermining our our last presidential election though.
