This is ridiculous Brexiteer fantasy. The UK will have no measure of success in the short to medium term in a no deal scenario; it will be absolutely catastrophic.

It's meaningless to speculate what might happen in a fantasy scenario a decade or more later, but we know for a fact that the UK would be initially hurt much more badly by no deal than the EU.

If anything, no deal should convince Eurosceptics in other countries that they just cannot sell this fantasy to their constituents anymore.

The UK is the EU's second largest single export market for goods. Go figure.

What nonsense. The people most worried about no deal are the Germans. You seem be missing much of what's going on around you. Pro-EU is pro-Titanic.

Living in Germany, nobody here cares about Brexit. They don't show it in the news much. General opinion across my circles is that the UK should do whatever they want (leave or stay), but that they should stop wasting EU's politician's time with it.

So no, Germans at least are not worried about no deal. I don't think anyone talks much about Brexit in the EU, except for Britain. I don't think anyone is worried at all.

In all fairness, why would anyone outside of Britain even care ? Whether Britain wants to stay or leave the EU with or without a deal is entirely up to them. The rest of the EU or the world doesn't (and shouldn't have) any kind of say on that.

If you ask me it's pretty pathetic that Brexit hasn't already happened.
