The Sun on Sunday Says: Scaremongering and threats over Brexit is a load of hot air

Have they changed their minds? That’s not allowed, surely?

There's a lot of revisionism going on. The "no deal" in 2016 was project fear, i.e. the apocalyptic predictions as to what happens with Brexit. Those very same apocalyptic predictions are expected to begin next week if the UK crashes out. If David Cameron had announced A50 and a no deal starting in June 2018 we would already be deep in the predicted recession. In fact if the government had declared it's intention of a no deal, the recession would have begun within months.

So, Brexit gets cancelled, the electorate turns round, mutter "******* Politicians", and life goes on.

No burning sheep, no stolen 4k TVs, no blockades of the motorways.

Just like Bobby Ewing stepping out of the shower! Minus the pay rise and the chance to shag Victoria Principal. Although as a 12 year old I did have the hots for Charlene Tilton. Followed by a MILF crush on Linda Gray, that was closely followed by Petrocelli's wife, now she did look like she could go for gold!
