Sload is a robot. I claim my 5 internet points.

I took a day away and people have spoken in my defense - cheers!
As was pointed out you basically put up dozens of links we barely read. Most of those links are of fear and doom. You have to remember that the majority of voters have had enough shit in their lives - shit which successive governments have doled out. Those voters really don't care now how it all goes, they want change and a big one which will shake up a system.
Do I care if my world goes arse up? Nope - there's always something there to catch us. If that doesn't then there are a few people who deserve a burning. The big house will look after me then!

Car plants. Jaguar/Rover are probably the most hissy fitty there is out there. The others do complain sure but in reality they've created their own problems by relying on JIT procedures. Worse still is them using the JIT with imports and exports - an obvious weak link if ever there was one. Obviously Brexit done in a way that damages those JIT links will damage their businesses. That's all they're saying. Jaguar/Rover shout and scream loudest it seems!!
As mpd has pointed out - the capacity to deal with needy deliveries is there and waiting. Not just that but those businesses could expand - there's a waiting workforce for them. Yes things are busier now but these are all things that our government should have been implementing except they've not. I knew this government did almost nothing and this is further proof of that.

OK the reality?
Do you honestly think Nissan, with its super efficient world leading assembly/manufacturing plant at Sunderland will move the whole thing?
Yes there are people waiting for work in other countries. Yes certain governments will deal out incentives to relocate but in reality it would cripple Nissan for a very long time. I'm not a betting man but will say this - I'll give you one banana if Nissan up and leave Sunderland following Brexit (if that even happens).
Personally I do think Jaguar/Rover will move. I think that's coming anyway. Sure they're screaming and crying but at the top the company is owned by TATA - the very same business who've owned other companies in the UK and decimated them. I think Jaguar/Rover are leaving regardless.
The rest of the UK vehicle manufacturers? Vauxhall are staying - they're doing incredibly well too.

(I now expect a heap of scare links to be posted by unfeeling Sload)

As Chickenstrip has already said: Be human and see how the electorate feel. Look closely and see how individuals will feel. The vote has almost nothing to do with what's best for the country - people are suffering NOW.

Finally: Brexit will not happen as I've already said. May is stalling and her party are in on it.
I feel that a second vote is looming and it will carry only selected questions - questions which give us limited options. I fear a lot of those votes will be spoiled with 'Leave Europe now' scribbled across them - that is, if people actually bother to vote. A second vote isn't democratic.

I scrape a living in the gig economy, I'm not asking for sympathy or complaining to the BCF massive.

But, "things will be worse, the nation will be poorer, blah blah blah".

Well, so what. What difference does any of that make to me, I slogged my guts out for 12 hours straight on Saturday, wet and cold all day to make under a hundred quid, and that was a good day.

So, if we have a second referendum, I'll get rich will I? Life suddenly won't be tough?

Speculation time - What do you think would happen if we get another vote (which I think we will) and the result is the same?

Will we get mass suicide from the ruling elite

I can't see them putting the choice - Leave without deal - on the ballot, they wouldn't have wriggle room.

If they just have - Leave - again , they can fudge it some more like they are doing now.

Of course they will want - Remain - to win but......

I'd guess that most people's views have polarised over the last 2 years, so the vote would be close. Perhaps the question to ask is 'has anybody changed their minds either way in the light of what we now know?'

Perhaps what the Government should do is introduce legislation to make it an offence if on the electoral register to not vote in a referendum - or even a general election for that matter....

Note I suggest this tongue in cheek because I think we all have the right to decide whether to vote or not, but I wonder what MPG et al think of the idea? If it gets a result that is truly representative, then surely this would be proper democracy in action?
