If you think trying to stay on top of Brexit developments as an outsider is nigh-impossible, rest assured: people who are much more closely following the debacle are getting just as exhausted.
By day, Jon Worth works as a communications consultant for European politicians. By rest-of-his-day he makes Brexit flowcharts — 27 versions since January, to be exact.
Brexit has become a tangled, confusing web of decisions and possible outcomes that change almost daily. It is both the perfect candidate for diagramming what happens next and a Sisyphean task of trying to outline every possibility.
The diagrams are lovely, and even include probability factors where Worth can assign them.
For all that even political insiders are finding his flow charts useful, Worth has reached the end of his rope..
But he’s exhausted. After more than two dozen updates to his flowchart, he’ll take a break on April 12th, the deadline for Britain to leave if Parliament does not approve Prime Minister Theresa May’s deal — regardless of what is happening with Brexit. He says he can’t keep going at this pace.
