According to what you write there's only 2 outcomes, dictatorship of EU or being isolated like a hermit. EU always had the option to walk a different path, in that case rightwing parties wouldn't flourish and people wouldn't have to be concerned about the future.
Leaders in Europe is so out of reality, they're doing more faulty decisions than correct. They base their decisions on outside influence cause whatever they decide it's not for US.
Therefor it's about time they start losing power and gets overridden.

The EU negotiators are better than the UK negotiators. From the beginning, the EU has maintained a position of little compromise. But what does a hard Brexit mean? A switch to WTO trade rules, which impose a tariff of 10 on most goods going either way. That adds 10% on all EU goods entering the UK and with the GBP lower than the Euro it evens out. A position that will cost Europe millions of jobs and the UK fewer jobs as homemade products become more affordable than imported EU goods.
The numerous committees we have together means that no EU institution can share information with the UK. This means terrorism, health, environment, etc sharing with the fifth largest world economy.
It also means we don't pay the 50billion, honour our promise on migrants benefits, work permits, disruption to flights to places like Spain, Portugal who rely on British holidaymakers. No deal for the EU is a grimmer picture than it is for Britain, even though the immediate hit will hurt us. The longterm hit to the EU is suicide.
