Brexit has already happened, right? The UK is just in transition period allowing everyone to prepare properly for the new status quo.

It's also very unlikely the UK would get as good of a deal as when it joined. I doubt it would be allowed to retain the pound, for example.

A ban on mixing indoors in businesses in Hartlepool and Middlesbrough is "unacceptable", a local mayor said.
It follows Health Secretary Matt Hancock's announcement of stricter rules in parts of the north of England to combat a rise in Covid-19 cases.
Middlesbrough mayor Andy Preston said they would "damage mental health" and "as things stand we defy the government and we do not accept the measures".

I'm going to go ahead and say that open defiance of corona measures, well, we've seen what that looks like in america.

How do you prepare? Be rich and/or able to leave the country.

Well, given those two facts we're pretty well placed for that revolution. I'm not saying having our own Infernal Columns going around the South would be a good thing, but it might be a thing.

this, it's actually a specific rule, not even strongly imply it

there's no lies in parliament, just points of view

e: ^^^ well he changed the rules to make it easier to kick people out of Labour, because like less than a fifth of his MPs voted against it (to be clear he's not against it himself, he's loving outraged some of his opposition party members dare to vote against the government)
