It's been pretty entertaining seeing all the hopped up chuds on Twitter getting mad at Ireland and Scotland for blocking Brexit and telling them to "just leave then!"
Mate, that's what they've been trying to do for like, ever.
Does the EU, at this point, just let them leave without a deal and use it to set an example for any othe EU countries considering t
a similar endeavor?

I think that was always in the cards.

And does Scotland and Northern Ireland leave the UK in an attempt to rejoin the EU? Would the EU let them back in?
I have no idea what's going to happen to the UK when they crash out of the EU, but one can't help but to think about hypothetical scenarios and how things might play out...

'No' and 'No...because of the first No.'

Is there no way for Brits to let their MPs know of their unhappiness for what’s going on? You’d think they would reverse course if they knew there was some dissatisfaction with voters.

I don't know if there's been any stance taken by other EU members on Irish reunification but I know Spain has said they'd block Scottish admission if they went independent. Had a big effect on the referendum as I recall.
Northern Ireland might be different if they're joining an EU member state (don't know what the EU approval process would be for that, or if Spain would have the same objection).

There have been at least a couple opportunities for opposition parties to bring down the government and trigger an election during this whole Brexit process. An election would certainly be run on pro and anti-brexit as the major issue separating candidates and would be THE way to for Brits to let MPs know how they feel.
However, whenever these opportunities have come up, the opposition parties have propped-up the government as there is some fear from Labour and the other opposition parties the Conservatives would gain power in an election.
There really is no better source for news on Brexit than the youtube channel TLDRNews
Because of the nature of the parliamentary system, if the Tories run in the election as the Brexit party, they might win a huge majority with 40-45% of the vote. The anti vote will be split between LDP and Labour because Corbyn is an idiot, and Labour will lose a bunch of "Trump" voters to the Tories because of Brexit. The one thing Johnson has managed to do is basically make the Brexit Party irrelevant, so I think the electoral math sets up for a big Tory win, even if "No" would win a new Brexit referendum.

They have had several half a million strong marches through London, vast turn outs.
Part of the anomaly of Brexit is the shear equality of division, the country is pretty well split down the middle, the vote itself was a slightly pro Brexit, the polls now are slightly pro remain but there is no center ground, those that support both Brexit and remain are vehmenently attached to their opinion in a way you don't usually see in politics.
So it looks like Boris Johnson is/was planning on privatizing the UK National Heath System in order to secure a post-Brexit trade deal with Donald Trump. Jeremy Corbyn released a set of unredacted leaked government documents showing Boris Johnson's trade team was allegedly offering up the NHS as part of negotiations.
Bojo of course denies this at the same time his part faces allegations of antisemitism.
Quote:
Jeremy Corbyn has released uncensored official documents which he says provides confirmation that the NHS is on the table in trade talks with the USA.
In a press conference in Westminster, Mr Corbyn brandished what appeared to be leaked government papers detailing six rounds of trade talks in Washington and London running from July 2017 to a few months ago.
He said that the content of the 451-page paper left “in tatters” prime minister Boris Johnson’s denial that the NHS is on the table in trade talks.
And he declared: “This election is now a fight for the survival of our National Health Service as a public service free for all at the point of need.
“So for the want of any doubt, let me give this reassurance: Labour will never ever treat our NHS as a bargaining chip in trade talks with anybody. We will never let Donald Trump get his hands on our NHS. Because our NHS is not for sale.
The bombshell announcement came as Mr Corbyn battled to force the general election agenda back onto his preferred turf of health, after a nightmare day on Tuesday in which his fitness to govern was questioned by the Chief Rabbi and he refused four times in a difficult BBC interview to apologise for his handling of antisemitism in his party.

Couple of basic moves, first part being harmonizing UK pharma patent law, overnight increase in drug prices in UK by 100%'s of percent, in the long run my guess would be treating the NHS as a health insurer so no government subsidies have to compete with private insurers etc etc
If there is anything that resembles a hard border between, the Republic of Ireland, and Northern Ireland, you can expect that "The Troubles" are reignited.
