Agreed. If we do leave, the campaign to rejoin will kick off the very next day. Bring on the full-fat EU federal superstate, I say - combined armed forces, single currency, Schengen, the lot.

I'll reckon we'll be back in, Euro and all, within ten years of leaving.
Before the Anglo/Scots war finishes in this thread, then.

Right now my predictions are this, or more likely breakup of the Union. You can already see the bullet points in the GCSE essays on the causes lining up. ROI independence, IndyRef1, Brexit, IndyRef2, NI ref1, etc.
Maybe in the long run this will be a good thing. Becoming internationally irrelevant means less foreign aid and military spend.

That article is largely undermined by this little section:
"If you lose an argument it doesn't mean you change your mind but you have to accept the decision," she says.
"You would then say: 'I accept that decision, I'm going to regroup and win more people over to my side to my argument in the future.'"
Yeah, except that doesn't work for Brexit does it? Once we're out, we're very unlikely to get back in because we won't get a deal like we currently have. It's very difficult to be magnanimous about a one-off decision that will be effectively irreversible for the foreseeable future.
