To put this is Texas terms: We’ve struck oil. We are rich. We are richer than our wildest dreams! But, wait, we’re not. We are not an independent country. We voted No to independence in 2014, believing we were broke, and that the oil was running it. We bought the lie that what oil we had left wouldn’t be worth a pittance. The same people who were laughing at us then are laughing at us now; that oil bonanza – which they knew was in the pipeline – will not be coming to us. It will be going right where it has always gone, to London.

Brexit: Europe Prepares for the Worst
Theresa May and her neo-imperialist band of Conservative Brexiteers seem hell bent on going through with this no matter the cost, and this is the root of all the uncertainty. They are capable of anything – and this is frightening.
Article 50: Are You Triggered Yet?
It’s all a wee bit too much like getting the first ride on the rollercoaster Groundskeeper Willie built – 'it might work.' Then again it might not.
Gary Lineker, Women’s Bits, and Brexodus
Brexit Britain, in its splendid arrogance, is wilfully disregarding the fundamental rule of finance; that time is money, and every passing moment of uncertainty – with the ongoing weakness of the pound – is costing the banks and (more importantly) their investors hundreds of billions.
