If the quality of life decreases, the economy stops growing or enters minimal growth and freedom of movement is curtailed, is that not the end of the UK for many?
I agree that it isn't the End of all things, however the counter extreme (Only the obliteration of the UK constitutes the End) is clearly ridiculous. So somewhere in the loss of functionality, economy for UK citizens there is a point where one can call it "The End of the UK as we know it".
For many soon-to-be unemployed, it may be the End. For those still employed, it's just getting worse. When there is a crossover is yet to be determined.
