I still don't think just leaving is realistic. The problem above is solvable but it's just one more item in a list of them. Institutions and businesses have just become to integrated with the rest of the world that to suddenly lose the mechanisms is a disruption the government will want to avoid at all costs. It's easy to suggest we just leave but we're not the ones implementing it and we're not the ones who the public will blame if it goes wrong.

Despite the bravado on here I don't think people will tolerate queues into Dover before losing their minds let alone huge economic disruption and job losses. Britain is not a country that is used to things going badly wrong for I think for some that leads them to think it can't.
