The Brexit supporters never ever explain what will happen if Brexit goes ahead.
They fell for the Brexit campaign of "not listening to experts"..rather they voted on emotional issues that will not be solved.
I've seen so many gormless comments that basically say
"everything will be sorted" and "
we can make new trade deals with Australia and Europe wants our goods etc etc"..a sort of arrogance that British made goods are so superior who would the rest of Europe dare to not want them?
I don;t if they are being wilful ignorant or can't be bothered looking into it...for a starter every single facet of trade will have to be renegotiated with the entire world. Every country has already put trade deals in place and they often take up to 5 years until concluded as they are so intensely complicated.
Great swathes of country Britain have been bolstered by EU cash..they scream
"it's our money anyway as we gave it to the EU"..true but under successive UK governments they have allowed those same areas to deteriorate, They would never have got the money without the EU stepping in. Yet most of them voted Brexit.

This LBC Twitter thread explains the real complications of negotiating trade deals throughout the world and it's not pretty..it should frighten everyone to death

"Debunking WTO, and what "trading on WTO terms" really means... As EU members, we participate in over 750 international treaties. Many relate to trade, enabling us to trade freely with the EU, the EEA, and 40+ other countries. 1/26"

Other treaties cover non-trade issues, from air worthiness certificates to drivers licenses, UK and EU citizens’ rights, food safety, environmental protections, workers rights, etc. 2/26

On Brexit Day, we leave the EU. That means we lose all the benefits of its treaties. The treaties are gone in a flash, as if we’d fed them into a shredder. (That’s not the EU being vindictive, it’s just how the Article 50 process works.) Even *if* we have a transition period 3/26
