Britain MUST leave the EU on April 12th. If they have have to be thrown out, then thats absolutely fine with me.

I'm tired of the UK, Brexit, the British government and parliament. JUST LEAVE!

They cannot be thrown out if they revoke article 50...the United Kingdom remaining in the EU is the best possible scenario for everyone involved

Ahh yes, because never mind the economy & people's jobs & livelihoods, amirite? THEY MUST LEAVE!!       /s
Look, I'm am a strong believer in the EU and I feel that Brexit was a terrible decision.

However, the UK's population did vote to LEAVE the EU and that must be obeyed. I know that there was a lot of misinformation spread in 2015 and 2016 about Brexit but that's just unfortunately a common occurrence in politics especially recently in the age of social media. Also, maybe David Cameron should have thought about that before he scheduled the referendum.

Additionally, both the UK government and UK parliament don't know what they want when it comes to Brexit. There's been just massive chaos and confusion for over the past 2 years and I'm tired of it. The UK MUST leave on April 12th and then deal with whatever the consequences follow.

Again, with all due respect, you won't actually have to deal with the consequences in New York State.
I have numerous family members that live in London so that's false.

My sister, father, some of my aunts and uncles, etc live in the UK. They immigrated to the UK decades ago from Jamaica.

It was a non-binding advisory referendum...
I know that. However, the UK's parliament didn't view it as such and revoked Article 50 in 2017.

To revoke Article 50 would be undemocratic. Don't schedule a referendum on something so important if the general populace is not well informed or you don't have a clear plan of what happens next. That's what David Cameron should have done before he scheduled the referendum.

I stand corrected. They will be affected, though. Why do you want a No Deal Brexit on 12 April with all the consequences that would entail for their lives?
It's not what I want but since the UK's government & parliament is such a mess and the EU is not playing any games then at this moment it's the most likely option.

You're completely disregarding the fact that no deal was never seriously discussed in the referendum, so how can you claim that leaving in two weeks with no deal is the "democratic" outcome?

Seriously, people were told during the referendum campaign that getting a deal would be easy & that the UK would hold all the cards. Options like Norway & Switzerland were thrown around as the viable options by leavers. No one thought that leaving without a deal was a realistic prospect.

However, according to the ardent Brexiteers (& you, evidently), the UK apparently voted to leave come what may, meaning that, deal or no deal, leaving is the only "democratic" outcome.

Now, revoking Article 50 wouldn't be democratic, but neither is leaving without any deal at all. So why insist that no deal on April 12th is the only democratic outcome? Seriously... why?
Well, then why won't the UK parliament agree to something? Didn't they have indicative votes a couple days ago and ALL of the alternatives were rejected?

Then what do you expect the EU to do? They already gave an extension and they are not going to extend it again if there is no clear plan in sight. The most likely option now is No Deal.
