Thing is with it, remain side were too arrogant to think they'd ever lose and the leave side was blagging it so much to think they'd ever win.
A bit like the US 2016 election, too.

I know we're really bad and that the Spivs are absolutely disgusting, but I'd like to see a NK minister try to rip the government off like ours have been, it's not a fair comparison with an extreme regime like that mate.
I applied for asylum and they gave me 17 of them.Not sure if this has been posted but one of the ways you can help make No Deal Brexit a success is... buy a second home!
Ten ways YOU can help make No Deal Brexit a success for Britain
No-deal Brexit can be made a success for Britain. For example, buying cars made in the UK will avoid any import taxes, and help support a vital industry which employs 180,000 workers.www.dailymail.co.uk
I say stick it to the fisherman - bunch of scruffy bellends. Spend all their days, bobbing about on the sea without a care in the world.
Bet they get up to all sorts out there as well with no one keeping an eye on them.
Bunch of wrong-uns for sure
I used to live next door to a fisherman. He offered me some oysters once. I politely refused as I’m allergic to seafood.
Tells you all you need to know to be honest.

How did leave voters expect the EU to act.
Did you expect them to give the UK a favorable deal that might encourage other major players to leave?
No. Not at all.
In 2016, I (albeit naively) expected both sides of the argument in the UK to work together towards negotiating with the EU. We didn't get that and I should have known better. We had 3 years of petty squabbling and a Labour party (conversely led by a bloke who was for Brexit) which ultimately went against the wishes of a lot of its voters on Brexit and hence suffered a huge loss in the last election.
We then got COVID which further compounded the issue and showed up just how pathetic all the in-fighting was.
The EU want a deal too and there has to be compromises on both sides, which both sides fully accept. It's all a face-saving exercise from all involved. If I could turn back time and have the vote again, I'd vote remain, but not because the EU is great, but because of the mess Brexit has ended up as for a variety of reasons - most of it self-inflicted, some of it from the EU also playing equally as daft as us, and a lot of it because of the totally inept government we have.

The very worst scenario for the country's point of view would be stringing the talks out until Christmas, then announcing no deal. That would leave absolutely no time for businesses (link mine) to prepare. If that is Johnson's plan it's unbelievably irresponsible.
And as many predicated Project Fear has now turned to Project reality as the Brexit utopia is exposed as a pack of lies told by billionaires to the gullible working class to remove their rights and freedoms.

This country is basically finished, we've not moved forward since March 23rd, in fact we've gone backwards, The Treasury is bankrupt !! It's makes me feel that I am in my latter days of life which is a comfort !! I would not want to be on this planet in 10 to 15 years time

What planet were Leavers on thinking that the EU was going to give us a *BETTER* deal than actually being an EU member.

They need us more than we need them, basically. Yeah, I know.
