Both sides are now at a point where they feel like the other is trying to stage a coup.
The remainers believe it is a coup that the PM has suspended parliament seemingly in an effort to bring the country closer to a no-deal Brexit.
The leavers believe it is a coup that there is a bill with a very real chance of passing that would make leaving without a deal illegal, therefore leading closer to not leaving the EU at all.
- gweinberg 7y agoI'd phrase it slightly differently: The leavers believe ignoring the results of the referendum is essentially a coup. The remainers think respecting the results of the referendum is essentially a coup.

- AnimalMuppet 7y agoI'd phrase it this way: The remainers think that bypassing Parliament in order to implement the results of the referendum is essentially a coup.
