Imagine, just for a minute, we cancelled Brexit on 13 December...
1) Business uncertainty would end, like flicking off a light switch. Companies would stop contingency plans, and start investing in the UK again
2) We could set about tackling climate change with undistracted gusto
3) The pound would rise
4) The Government could wind down its costly (£150+ million) and divisive EU Settlement scheme
5) Politics could go back to being about politics
6) Politicians could concentrate on the NHS, education, austerity, mental health, homelessness etc.
7) We could *start* to heal the rifts we have caused with our EU neighbours
8) We could spend the Remain dividend, estimated to be as much as £50 billion. (£0 has to be spent on Brexit contingencies or set aside for Brexit)
That's just the tip of the iceberg - but what a list!
Would it solve all our problems?
No, not even close.
Would it stop the rot, and take us away from the destructive path we've been on for the last 3.5 years?
Yes. A thousand times yes.
And of course in this scenario, we'd be rid of the hideous incompetent Tory government. No more of this destruction...

If you're a Leaver reading this thread and wondering why Remainers are fighting so, so, so hard to stop Brexit... THIS is why!
