Default UK motorway gantries now flashing "Leaving on October 31" signs

In your dreams. I think that the only way that will happen is if most of the
rest stay home on poling day.
The whole point has been missed and as many said at the time, regardless of
you position on leave or stay, the referendum was flawed in so many ways. No
threshold turn out , no majority based on the actual voters who turned out,
then both sides campaigns blatantly lying or over simplifying the problem of
leaving
Did nobody foresee what everyone else did here?

Yesterday I drove home up the M40. Every now and again there are
information gantries that usually announce how long till the next
junction, but I saw two that had wording to the effect that "UK
is
leaving the EU on October 31. You may need further papers."

The message was obviously primarily directed at international
truckers.

Last night's TV adverts also included a message from HM
Government
stating that "UK is leaving on October 31" (I paraphrase.)

So the government is now *assuming* that we will definitely leave
on
the "do or die" date. There'll be much egg-on-face if after all
we do
not leave then.

Why shouldn't we leave then? That is the default position (a REAL
one, compared to your advisory referendum default). The only hope
for
you mainland-worshipping Remoaners is that all the mainland
countries
approve a delay, in which case we will have the same exact problem
on
31st January. Sooner or later, one of the mainland countries will
veto any further delays. It's inevitable.

It's not inevitable at all.

It's totally inevitable. All it takes is one ****ty little mainland
country to say NO and the Brexit extension is ****ED.


When that does happen, the British government will simply revoke A50.


Except that Britain does not have a government. It has a bunch of overpaid
self serving rabble rousers, but they are not governing - precisely the
opposite, in fact and the chance of revoking A50 (when a majority of
almost
400 voted to give May the green light to invoke it) is nil.

Britain will have a government after a general election; but as the rabble
rousers know, it will be a Tory government with a three figure majority.
