How bad would no deal brexit" on top of the pandemic be?

[Scarlet Pimpernel]

No deal is not really and end game even though it's presented as such

The reality is no deal means more negotiations with the EU next year.

You think that likely?
It's taken at least eight months so far, and no end in sight. Further rounds of negotiations next year will see EU still protecting its internal market, and still remembering UK's attempt at breaking international treaties.
Only if Boris agrees to abide by EU standards (with all the necessary mechanisms that go with it) will there ever be a deal. And Boris has boxed himself into a corner on that score.
The only way a deal will be done is if it gets so bad that Boris goes, and a more compliant PM starts afresh, but by then UK will be desperate and EU will be cool on the idea. But at least EU may have more trust in the new PM.
That's my preferred outcome. Although it won't affect me much, if at all.
I was a remainer, but now I'm a Brexiteer. Let it snow, Let it snow, Let it snow, then Boris has to own it.

It will be difficult for sometime but then things will improve. Have patience.

And you've forgotten the proper use of verbs.

Ardent Brxiteers

And you can't spell.

It was one of the options I was exploring, but unfortunately have had to delay it for a while due to family reasons. Stuck in Blighty for a while longer.

It used to be relatively inexpensive so you could get a meal for £1.50 and a beer was 50 pence and staying in a hotel was about a £10

well you make a fair point, the ERG will keep any PM hostage

until public support for brexit wanes, the ERG nutters have the power

but the reality is that no deal is not really sustainable -so there will have to be more negotiations -no deal is simply not an end game like brexers believe.

well he made out it was some great deal he did.....when it was an old EU deal that May turned down. Johnson made promises about getting an EU deal that were never realistic, so he is boxed in.....either he has to compromise to get a deal or he has to allow no deal to happen and suffer the chaos. even a deal will lead to lots of issues and no deal means the ERG will be happy and keep in leader for now -Johnsons decisions are all based on short term possible gain, nothing else.

They don't want to make it appear easy to leave

I agree

Goodness me all the trolls and feeders in one thread and a noob troll to add to the mix.

One thing is certain...

Lal will run the UK down.

 

[durhamplumber]

am not sure if

No surprise there

 

[durhamplumber]

I'm hoping

 

[durhamplumber]

assuming it works

Nobody has the foggiest idea..not even the biggest moaners..notchyjondLAL.

 

[fillyboy]

Do I look worried?

 

[Notch7]

Do you really think they're playing the "long game"?

Of course - none of the "deadlines" have been from the EU side -they will continue negotiating.

The UK will always have the EU as a major trade partner -its on our doorstep, the EU know that

the EU also know that sooner or later there will be some adults in no 10

I suppose it rather depends how much structural damage the Tory party can do in dismantling parliament and deregulating for self interest in the next 4 years
