Will Brexit actually happen? Maybe if it's dragged out long enough, the British will realise they're better in than out. Jeremey Corbyn seems to be the stumbling block though.
If out,
1. They're fukked economically now and even more so after Brexit. (The NY Times recently ran a story on how 'food banks' are a big thing in the UK now).
2. The Union will break up. Scotland will leave. In NI, it's only a matter of time and Catholics having more babies than the Prods. And NI is an agricultural country. Who they gonna sell to?
3. In the (near?) future, countries won't matter. It'll be about which 'gang' you belong to - USA, China, India*, the EU.... and everyone else. Britain on it's own is screwed.
Hard to believe they don't get it. I guess that's the power of the Press.
* India is a maybe. It's entirely possible they and Pakistan will nuke each other to oblivion.
