In many ways the UK is going to be more fucked up than the US, and way sooner.
Huh. Who would have thought.
Indeed.
For one we don't have cast-iron written constitution for lash ourselves to during the coming storm.
That will be a big benefit to you - Parliament can still stop Boris.


Parliament doesn't work like your Senate. There are already a number of Conservatives in open opposition to the current PM. The current government has a very slim majority. It is certainly possible for this government to be brought down and elections held. If that occurs the EU could extend the date.
They've had a wide opportunity to do so in the past couple years and haven't done much of anything. As May pointed out, they make it clear what they don't want but never what they do.
Barring any sort of sign from them that they are happy to broadly accept the current deal, they can't avoid a no deal brexit unless the EU grants another extension. Bringing down Johnson's gov't (which seems hard given how much dithering labour is doing) can't prevent the fact that if they reach Oct 31 without agreeing to something or withdraw the legislation to leave, no deal is the default end.
