Will the Brexit political crisis ever end?

Possibly not. The option no one is really talking about is the EU27 getting fed up and forcing our hand. Although they would prefer the UK as a contributing member, there has to be a point when we're just too much of a disruption to normal business.

@SW-User They must be f***ing sick of us by now. I would be.

@Burnley123 I don't know about the politicians but I am in some EU country most weeks. Brexit has been the most common lunchtime discussion for most of the last 3 years, except for during major football tournaments. The general tone had gone from mild disbelief that we would vote to leave to openly laughing at the shambles we have created.

@SW-User I knew a lot of EU people when I lived in London. It was too close to the bone for them to find it funny. I knew one Italian girl who said Brexit was one of the main reasons she left the country. She worked really hard in the hotel industry and felt Brexit was like the country saying FU to her and anyone like her.

@Burnley123 Yes, I had the same with people I knew in my last job. Two moved back to Germany straight after the referendum because they didn't feel welcome.
