Someone asked me where I get my determination:
I know for a fact that almost every single politician who pushed for Brexit in 2016 reassured people they wouldn't be hurt by it by promising we'd get a deal. Those same people are running the country now and pushing for no deal.

So if you know that the people running the country are liars who are doing something that they've implicitly admitted (via their 2016 arguments) would hurt the country and there is anything you can do to block their plans... Morally you have to.
And even when the "They voted for it. Let them lie in the bed they made" thought enters my head, it's immediately replaced by three overruling thoughts:
1️⃣ Neglected UK communities voted for things to get better. Not worse.
2️⃣A private-schooled law-degree-having prat like me has no right to say "let the working class suffer"
3️⃣The generations who'd suffer most from it, voted against it, while the rest are shielded by triple-lock.
