Presumably in the case of a no-deal Brexit the UK waives all customs and import checks to stave off collapse. In that case the Irish border remains open but becomes a huge vector for smuggling goods into the EU. Maybe!

EU doesn't have to waive them, though.

Why is it impossible or wacky that a second referendum that Remain wins happens? The moral/democratic argument is there, it's obviously untrue to say Leave voters were all voting for no-deal brexit. Labour has already laid out a legal route to a second referendum and it's still possible that enough remain MPs decide in the crunch to not be completely poo poo for once and support it.

Bruh loads of EU people love the UK because we swing the veto around. It's a whole thing that no-one is quite sure who will step up to be the new awkward fucker for the dumbest Commission poo poo if the UK leaves.

Our officials are poo poo because New Labour was poo poo and didn't attack the power nexus while creating a party structure that means the current left-wing force is comprised of careerist ghouls that think meritocracy is a thing. It's insane, the membership and the leadership chosen by the membership might well be good but there's this whole layer of useless in the middle that won't allow the unrad to be removed on the left, and on the right it's tories/tartan tories.

Wait, so what's actually gonna happen with Ireland if there's a no deal Brexit? I know there's theoretically supposed to be a hard border, but wouldn't that be pretty much impossible in practice?

In practice, yes.

In the mindset of the English, no. Because ultimately those uppity bog dwellers in Ireland will come around once the 29 March 2019 deadline kicks in. At that point they will realize the folly of their ambition to become an independent country that has benefited enormously from being a fully signed-up member of the largest trading bloc on the planet. If they know what's good for them, they'll abandon decades of progress and come crawling back to the embrace of the Glorious British Empire.

Voting choice in the uk has become unprecedentedy linked to age cohort in the last decade. The Tories now draw their support from a solid bloc of oldies, who reliably turn out to vote. The under 50's mainly vote Labour, Lib Dem or Green (The Tory vote among 18-24yr olds is about 10% or something else stupidly low) but are somewhat less likely to actually vote.

Brexit, the current Tory government and Johnson as PM were all voted in by the olds, basically.
