The one they expressed when they voted to leave the EU.   You can recall that can't you?

One of the main reasons for the 'cold feet' is that the US is undergoing a rapid change.

With no POTUS Trump in 2021, markets will run for cover.  In said event, buy a generator asap.

That wasn’t a clear expression of “the people’s” will.  That was a muddled decision that was about as close to 50/50 as one can get.

--- Quote ---Theresa May's Brexit deal is rejected again: Here's what happens next
CNBC, Mar 12, 2019, Matt Clinch

•The route forward is still uncertain but May has already promised two more votes for the U.K. Parliament.
•On Wednesday and Thursday, respectively, lawmakers will likely get to vote on whether the U.K. should leave the 28-member bloc with no deal, or should request a delay to its departure, which is currently scheduled for March 29.

The route forward is still extremely uncertain but May has already promised two more votes for the U.K. Parliament. On Wednesday and Thursday, respectively, lawmakers will get to vote on whether the U.K. should leave the 28-member bloc with no deal, or should request a delay to its departure — which is currently scheduled for March 29.

May confirmed that these votes would go ahead just seconds after her deal was overwhelmingly rejected for a second time.

The first vote on a no-deal scenario — where the U.K. crashes out of the bloc and has to rely on WTO trading rules — is highly likely to be rejected by politicians. However, it's not concrete and there's still a possibility the U.K. could leave without a deal, even if they vote against it.

[...]

If Wednesday's vote is rejected, lawmakers will vote Thursday evening on whether they want an extension to Article 50 — which is the formal two-year process governing Britain's departure from the European Union.

With only 17 days left until the Brexit deadline, it's possible that lawmakers could back this, although pro-Brexit MPs (Members of Parliament) worry that this could lead to a second referendum or no Brexit at all.

An extension to Article 50 also opens up the possibility of another general election in the U.K. if May, perhaps understandably, grows weary of the political stalemate in Westminster.

I heard today, someone comment that England can survive because of the USA's role. I'd like to think that's true. I think it was on one of the news shows and not just on some forum.
