A no-deal Brexit would not end negotiations – and the EU knows it | Paul McGrade | Opinion | The Guardian

For the EU, no deal is not an end state; it is the continuation of negotiation by other means.
This is not fully appreciated in the UK, where – because of the internal struggle for Conservative MPs’ votes – both sides deliberately talk about no deal in extreme, quasi-religious terms. The UK will “fall” into a dark pit of rationing and transport chaos if backbenchers defy the prime minister, or (as hard Brexiteers have it) the country will purify itself of self-doubt in a baptism of fire. Either way, no deal is depicted as a long, hard struggle.
