settlement she negotiated with the european union has been rejected twice by her own parliament. she had to ask that brexit, which was supposed to happen at the end of this coming week, be delayed. she wanted three months. the eu gave her three weeks. but defeat delayed is not defeat avoided. >> i'm defending democracy. >> reporter: two and a half years after the referendum, the country is still split more or less down the middle by those who want to leave -- ♪ we're not going to brexit ♪ >> reporter: and those who voted to stay and say leaving would be even more damaging than they feared. any suggestion the standoff could be resolved by holding another referendum, still a political long shot, is dismissed by this man, john curtis, britain's preempt public opinion pollster. opinions he says have hardened on both sides.
3:43 am
>> because we are so polarized, and because we have so many people who either feel very stro strongly remain or very strongly leave, any fact, any development in the past two years has been interpreted differently. so if you are a remainer, yes, you will say just look at how difficult it is for us to get out of this institution. it's therefore a bad idea. but if you're a lever, you say look how difficult it is to get out of this. that just goes to show you why we should get out, because it has far too much influence and involvement in this country's affairs. >> reporter: funny, huh? >> donald trump got involved. >> i'm surprised at how badly brexit negotiations have gone. i could have done it much better. >> reporter: shortly after the referendum, we went up to a pub in the northern english town of sunderland. it's a town where the only major employer is a car plant where most of the production is exported to europe.

which. >> reporter: what, out of spite? >>me. it's almost suicidal, but i may be wrong. >> reporter: anger in the country, anger in parliament, anger confronting a government minister on the airwaves. >> nobody in the country knows what's going on. nobody in there knows what's going on, and you know nothing about what's going on, even inside the cabinet. the cabinet is at sea. the country is at sea. we are a laughingstock. >> is that a question or just your -- >> i'm pushing to it you. >> reporter: so much for british civility. maybe it is time for a vacation from brexit. >> doesn't have to be abroad there are no other brexiteers. we could just head for the west country. jacob reece small could lend us one of his counties. >> reporter: jacob reece mog. >> this is not brexit. this is a failure of government policy. it needs to be rejected. >> reporter: mog leads a line of

conservative mps to want to leave the eu now, the so-called cliff edge brexit, no matter the consequences. and he is straight from central casting. >> he has been described as looking like a haunted lamppost. and what's good about him from a come pick point of view is that he exactly matches everyone's caricature of a cartoon englishman. >> reporter: jacob rees-mogg said -- thinking even more vexing news is exceedingly tiresome. >> reporter: clearly it seems in your minds the benefits of a brexit and a hard cliff edge brexit, is this a process that nobody is controlling? >> the cliff edge term is not the right one to use. but there is no cliff edge. >> steep slope. >> it's not a steep slope. >> reporter: a no-deal brexit would be such an economic shock, almost everyone else agrees that the government has been practicing using highways as truck parking lots while goods wait for post brexit customs clearance.
3:47 am
imports of foods and medicines would be at risk. to rees-mogg, though, the problem isn't brexit. it's that the prime minister doesn't really believe in it. but it was sold as a very simple proposition. in or out, easiest deal in history, all those things we've heard. it hasn't turned >> no matter what happens, the has rolled over to wait to have its tummy tickled and then look the hand that has been tickling it. it is a completely hopeless approach to negotiation. it had no backbone. >> reporter: the referendum was held in the hope it would resolve an issue that had been festering in britain, and particularly in its conservative party for decades. instead, it has stretched the political system and maybe the country's fabled sense of humor to the breaking point. >> we'll also discuss whether the people are longing for days when politics was dull and the news talked about other things, and how nobody predicted that nostalgia for the time before the eu would help lead to a
