So is a hard Brexit. You are absolutely infuriating 40% of the country who will never vote for you again, pick which side you want to piss off.

If it's a Tory government, then I can buy the argument that most of those 40% probably aren't voting for you anyway. But still, there are wealthy conservative areas of the country that are not anti-EU that they would be wiped out in almost overnight. Hell, look at how much of their home counties heartland are wealthy bankers or import/export types. And they've already destroyed their credibility with many of the hardest Brexit supporters, although somebody like Boris or Rees-Mogg would probably get a lot of that back.

It's kinda hilarious to me that the Lib Dems are the main benefactors of this. It's a beautiful circle of life after self destructing when they finally seemed ready to start becoming the third main party the first time. Thanks Nick Clegg.
