The people did a hard break on Brexit. “Yellow vest” is all about breaking out of globalism and inti-sovereignty and returning to basic culture.It will be a bloody clash— Tectonic plates. It is a revolution now coming here soon. I have my vest.
The French government started working on its contingency plan in the event that the UK leaves the EU without a deal on March 29, 2019.
The plan includes five emergency laws to be pushed through within the next three weeks.
... “Under these conditions, our responsibility is to make sure that our country is ready, that the interests of our citizens are preserved and defended,” he said.
[It comes after the defence secretary said 3,500 troops were “held at readiness” to help if the UK crashes out of the EU. ]
That’s interesting...
“Customers are taking money — physical money — out of the bank and they’re buying gold bullion with us to store it, and it’s a hedge,” he said.

Under-Secretary Bernd Krösser: “We hope that all British fellow-citizens who see Hamburg as their home will be able to remain here. I should be very happy to see as many Hamburgians with British roots as possible taking German nationality.”
Following the initial campaign on the offer of nationality, around 1300 British citizens recently received a personal letter from the First Mayor notifying them of the opportunities for taking German nationality. Since the 2016 Brexit referendum, more than 800 British people have done so.

Boris Johnson dumped dirt on May’s Brexit deal in his bid to be viewed as a credible Plan B
The only riots that will occur is if there isn’t a hard Brexit. Fake news.
A No Deal Brexit would be the best for the regular peeps in the UK, no crowd calming needed.
It is if the Remainders prevail and push it to an entirely new vote (or somehow were to still get May’s worse-than-nothing deal) that would be a big FU to the the citizens of the UK.
But of course they make this move to try to make it appear as the opposite.
A lot of folks want the UK to rejoin EFTA to preserve its access to the European single market.
It was a founding member of EFTA. The difference with the EU is while the latter is more of a political union, EFTA remains an economic trading bloc.
Either that or a Swiss model of integration with Europe are post-Brexit options for the UK.
Just like the Y2K scare, a no-deal Brexit would be very anti-climatic.
Ironic that self-labeled “Icons” like France and Britain are gathering forces to quash their citizens...
