Too much debate around Brexit is around all the possibilities of everything that could happen ever.

That type of argument is frankly puerile.

Anything's possible. The republics and monarchies of Europe might make Charles III emperor of Europe.

Why not? It's possible.

Brexiters have become unmoored from reality for a long time.
US won't look after UK with generosity
Canzuk is not a thing and is not happening
Britain won't trade more with China just cos you've left Europe.

But rejoiners need to work in the reality-based world.

Dismissing argument by saying that, for example, Europe rewriting its fundamental treaties to make Britons an exceptional category for mobility or trade is frankly puerile.

(it ignores the reality of treaty change)
