In fact, let's do their work for them. Why don't all our leavers here suggest 4 or 5 precautions the ordinary citizen should take to prepare for no deal, or explicitly declare no preparation is needed? Then we will know in a few short months if they were right.
I suggest remainers do not make such suggestions, because everyone knows we are all gloomy and miserable people, only interested in talking the country down. So let's just get the advice from the positive people here. Let's hope we don't just get a resounding silence.


I see no reason to take preparations against a possible 'no deal' situation. or explicitly declare no preparation is needed?. As things currently stand I think that 'no deal' may be the best outcome that we can hope for. The EU doesn't want to negotiate. They just poo poo any suggestions put forward by UK, without any counter-proposals.

But to say that remainers, who seem to fear such an outcome, should not comment seems to be avoiding the question.
