There have already been some protests, but it's too early in Johnson's 'premiership' to protest--you'd probably only signal that you're against him. He's obviously also making lots of spending promises, which are probably causing some people to pause for breath. Also, people are so tired of this and so fed up with it, and many are struggling to get by and can't afford the luxury of protests.

Thank you, all valid points, especially regarding Brexit fatigue. It's also true that protests have to be timed right to have an impact. I am just concerned that if everyone was to wait until September or October, it might be too late. It doesn't look like Boris is looking to enter negotiations in good faith and he is running down the clock instead. Public support would probably also strengthen the resolve of Tory rebels and opposition to prevent No Deal.

Why are there no mass protests against the government’s No Deal plans? No one has voted for it, neither in the referendum nor the general election. As someone who has moved to the UK over 10 years ago, the only explanation for me is that many people do in fact continue to believe in a form of British exceptionalism, making them think that if there’s a country that can make a success of such an unprecedented act of economic and political self-harm it is the UK. I hope I am wrong and people put their differences aside and express their discontent sooner rather than later.
