Apparently some tories are calling for her resignation over it. (I got this from some scum press in a waiting room so best check it for accuracy.) I’d normally jump on any chance to kick her to the curb, but trying to stop a fucking war in Ireland is a decent cause.
It’s no exaggeration that a no deal Brexit and a hard border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland could see a return to violence.

There was talk of "Referendum 2: Electric Boogaloo" with a magority vote needed to actually pass, which I'd be 100% in favour of, because last time no where near enough people voted AND many have openly said they voted for things that they clearly A) didn't understand [many voted to "get rid of the immigrants" which isn't happening, and not what the vote was in aid of] B)will never get [this supposed money for the NHS, which was confirmed NOT to be happening the next day on UK TV] or C) voted as some sort of "protest" against the tories...........
I really hope this extra time gives clarity that the UK has almost, if not exactly, zero things to offer Europe and that we can take another referendum and/or just stop the process [I believe the consensus is, we can just stop the process at any time, IE we don't HAVE to fully go ahead with it].
If we leave Europe, I'm fully convinced it will leave the UK in a total shambles. Border between Northen Ireland and Ireland? Fuck that. You'll end up with riots or some think that unification with Ireland may be on the cards in the long term. Scotland will leave the UK to re-join Europe, and England will be proper fucked.

Sick of hearing about it on the news. Get some interesting news BBC, Like Madonna gets shampoo bottle stuck in her arse.. I couldn't care less, fat cats run the country always have always will. Brexit means nothing to the man in the street.

Unfortunately it was the man on the street who voted for Brexit. Still, I like the thought of Madonna having a bottle of shampoo stuck up her arse.

If Brexit is not delivered there will be riots outside parliament. A sea of Zimmer frames and mobility scooters will stretch as far as the eye can see. Of course there will some younger people as well. Many will have brought along their carers.

You know those memes of some apocalypse with a few ragged survivors, like The Road with Viggo Mortensen as the Dad pushing a trolley down a dirt track while volcanic ash falls around them, saying to his kid "But there were emails..."
Over on this side pond, we could use the same pictures but have them say:
"But we get blue passports..."
