The government announced guidelines for a no-deal Brexit – the 25 best reactions

If the government really wants to take back control, they need to learn to take back responsibility too. Blaming Brussels for a no-deal Brexit is like demanding a divorce and then blaming your ex-spouse when you feel lonely.https://t.co/6tJQoRAqQs

The media: It would be economic suicide if Scotland became independent.
The country would be in ruins

Also the media: Oh & the Tories are sending out leaflets telling you to emotionally distance yourself from your pets as they could make a nutritious meal after a no deal Brexit

Today we're told to take honey instead of medicine. Preparations for Brexit are underway. Next month: "Is your neighbour a witch?"

"Vote Leave And The Army Won't Be Deployed And You Will Still Be Able To Eat A BLT". Why didn't we see this on the side of a bus.

We can still enjoy a BLT after Brexit. Although the bacon will be replaced by gammon.

Dominic Raab has assured us that the BLT sandwich is not under threat, as Spam makes an excellent substitute for bacon, grass tastes exactly like lettuce, and you don't mind your tomato unpicked and rotting in a field somewhere

2016:
“No downside to Brexit, only a considerable upside.”

2018:
The government is now preparing to emergency stockpile food and medicine and Britain is facing the prospect of being the only country in the world without a trade deal with anyone.#NoDealBrexit

I see we’re back to “you’ll reap the benefits of Brexit long after everyone who voted for it is fucking dead” argument we all knew about before the referendum. https://t.co/YGufAFXHa7

This comment by Lord Adonis makes a chilling point.

84 key papers published on how life will carry on next March if the Government cancels the entire system by which people, goods, planes and ships move between Britain & 27 other countries in Europe.

Parliament starts its 30th day on holiday
