The process is certainly complex and maybe the complexity should have been made clearer but we are where we are now. I don't see how the issue can be resolved without some squabbling since there are some very fundamental issues to debate and no clear workable way forward that can satisfy the expectations of those who may ultimately be disappointed at some of the realities of the world, but the government knows that its chances of reelection depend on making this work so let's hope they succeed.

“whose dire predictions were predicted to occur the minute the votes were counted?”
Leaving aside your predictions, jno, here’s mention of a few:

“It put the wind up businesses, making them warier about investing in new kit. And at least some of the people who voted remain did so because they were worried about the economic consequences of leaving. That was hardly surprising, given the regular and lurid warnings – from the Treasury, the Bank of England, the International Monetary Fund and the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development – about the dire consequences that would inevitably flow from Brexit.”
“By now, Britain was supposed to be reeling from the emergency budget George Osborne said would be necessary to fill a £30bn black hole in the public finances caused by a plunging economy. The emergency budget is history, as is Osborne.”
“City economists had predicted an immediate rise in the claimant count measure of unemployment in July. That hasn’t happened either. This week’s figures show that instead of a 9,000 rise, there was an 8,600 drop.”
There’s plenty more where those came from. I accept that Brexit has not yet happened. However, many of the consequences forecast by “Project Fear” were to be immediate and profound. One more, which I cannot immediately find a link to, was that interest rates would have to rise immediately after the vote. Well, they didn’t did they?
