Had I known you were keen I'd have taken a photo of the queues at the Gare du Nord last week (although such was the length of it that a video would perhaps have done it more justice).

Photos always welcome.
I'm sure you can't wait to see mine in a few day's time, Bruce!
Multimedia contributions are always welcome, but it would seem more appropriate if it actually addressed one or some of the concerns people actually had in the event of a no deal, which as I can't recall anyone predicting biblical catastrophes, the sky is surely going to remain where it is whatever happens.

Mate, you can't just assume that everybody who attended that march yesterday was a remainer.
And don't you know that the term "remainer" is actually considered divisive and antagonistic.
I think they got their own way,Its the losers trying to steel it back is what is upsetting the apple cart

Hence the quotation marks. The ones I mean are the twee ones saying things like 'lets sort this out over a cup of tea' and ones insulting the other side even though more votes are needed.

maybe we could find some historical photos of the sky from the day after Maastricht?
i'm sure that would prove something profound too
Those that voted remain need to make their minds up.All i have read on here in previous posts is about job losses.Now your suggesting that the lads in the ferry terminals are going to be flogging the overtime

I would say 'A merry Xmas to all my readers', but we haven't even reached Easter yet...
There are a number of posters of various opinions debating opposing points in this thread but I genuinely don’t get the whole losers , losing , ‘steeling ‘ type arguments . Whatever goes on with this country it’s not a football match or somebody pinching a tenner it’s a hugely important debate with differing views , surely it’s worth more than that ?

Since the vote, the Pound has collapsed, the biggest drop in any of the four major currencies since the 1970s, which has made almost everything more expensive. Economic growth and productivity growth is stagnant, private sector investment has cratered, and we are performing worse than even the Eurozone which these days takes some doing.
This is before we have even left.
@Bruce Wayne has helpfully provided the link to a study from the LSE, which you might review if you're actually serious in learning more about this.
There is a substantial difference between leaving without a deal, leaving while retaining the customs union, and leaving while retaining the single market and the customs union, which Corbyn is trying to facilitate.
Nearly 3000 posts in, few Leave voters seem to understand that there's a distinction between each of these.
The impact of the latter would be relatively minor; the middle option much more serious still. It will not feel as though the sky is falling because it mostly concerns modest to seriously diminished future growth rather than immediate economic contraction, but we will nonetheless all be poorer and worse off in ten years than we would be had we not had the referendum.
A No Deal Brexit on the other hand, to which I refer in the post you quoted, would be utterly catastrophic, dramatically worse than the financial crisis, which is why when actually confronted with it, the majority of even the Brexit Tories have caved every single time.
