Will The UK Leave The EU On Time?

This question originally came from the Ask Me A Question blog, where it was submitted by Spider. We are opening it up here as a forum discussion as well.

This is now a historical political question rather than a live prediction.

The UK did leave the European Union, but the original question still works as a discussion about uncertainty, political debate, deadlines, public division and how major decisions are handled.

A few points to discuss:

• Looking back, why was there so much uncertainty around the deadline?
• Did the debate change how people viewed UK politics?
• What did both sides of the argument get right or wrong?
• How did Brexit affect everyday discussion between friends and families?
• Are historical political questions easier to answer after the dust settles?

Keep the discussion civil. Brexit still brings strong views, but personal attacks help nobody.

The original blog answer is here:
