Brexit Metaphor No 38
If you decided to leave for somewhere and bought a plane ticket, what would you do next? Normally you would plan what luggage to pack, explore how to get to the airport, research ideas what to do when you get there, consider how much money you can spend, etc. No rocket science for most people. However, this hasn't been the case for the Leave campaigners in the UK Brexit process.
Brexiteers bought a ticket to "Leave" with 17.4 million votes. And then did nothing more for the next 2.5 years. So now, 4 months before Brexit day, instead of being at the airport waiting for boarding already, they are still at home considering their make-believe options: catapult or teleportation. Good luck with that!
