There's a major trend of Tories coming out and saying that no deal Brexit would mean "economic disaster", "economic shock", "economic chaos" or "recession"... and then immediately continuing "but we have to do it anyway".

Where are the sunny uplands?

We. Can. Still. Stop. It.
Funny thing is, some of the strongest advocates of Brexit aren't super rich (Tory MPs must be rich is a common misconception). Well off? Sure, an MP's salary's very decent. But rich? Not necessarily. Conclusion: they're going ahead with it just to win a few more months in power.
Yes, for them, the trade-off "destroy the UK economy for decades, and break up the Union" is worth it if it lets them keep their jobs a little bit longer.

I think I prefer it when it's the rich ones pushing Brexit. At least I understand their motivation, even if I despise it!
