Corbyn is anti EU as it gets and his jobs first approach to an EU deal doesn't match what he actually says with regards to free movement and free trade with the EU. He wants to offer something different outside the EU like the current Tories but is walking a fantasy line and hopes remainers don't notice he wants out of the EU.

To be fair, inequality has been rising and the current economy is a full-scale liquidation of environmental, mineral and agricultural resources. Feels great when you're blowing your life savings in Vegas

PA Senator Toomey was literally like "we never expected Trump to win"
A lot of what happens in 2016 makes a lot more sense when you realize nobody had a plan, and everyone was full of shit. Super telling
Very much is.
If i'm understanding correctly you would make the UK worse right now (possibly permanently worse) for a small chance that the politicians that support brexit change your society for the better ?
From the outside you look like a gambling everything for an impossible future.

I cast my vote hoping for a better longer term societal future in the UK at the expense of some short term economic pain, yes. I wasn't going to vote for more of the same, as more of the same was frankly appalling to me.
And I'm hardly gambling *everything* am I? It's never as absolute as that. I'm barely gambling much to be honest, truth be told.

To think that the UK of all places is more likely to be less about free market economics driven by itself than the EU is just bonkers to me.

You literally support a Tory pet project. Yeah, this is surely going to bring about socialism any day now
Everything? no; but in less than a year after the brexit vote as a Portuguese it is cheaper to buy from the UK then Portugal itself. Thanks to the decrease of the pound i managed to get a LOT more games and other entertainment products. I'll probably buy a few more items (thinking about a monitor, a smartphone, a big TV, a switch and a wheel) before the UK leaves because everything is so cheap there.
So you are gambling much if not all your purchasing power for a chance that is (currently) in very bad hands.
Best of luck to you!

Yes, you are gambling everything. Like seriously how the fuck can you people not see this? Have children or ever plan on having them? Well there's a good chance you fucked them royally so they can see how nice you had it half a century through their life. Great choice. Such a better future right?
Did you watch Question Time tonight? It was shockingly clear that Labour has no plan on Brexit either, they can't even state clearly whether they want to be in the single market or not. I was cringing. At least the Tories have made that part clear. Labour's policy is having their cake and eating it with the EU, which is definitely not facing the facts. And it's painful because we need Labour to be providing a proper and well structured opposition on Brexit policy.
As long as they can convince 27 other governments plus the EU parliament, sure, why not.
P.S.
They won't convince 27 other governments and the EU parliament
This. This is what Remain folks don't get. France is jumping at the chance to end British soft power in the EU. As is Germany. They want British industry ans foreign industry in Britain to move to their countries. A lot of companies are in the UK solely due to their english speaking, cultural soft power, london as a financial hub etc. And the fact they are open to the EU while being in Britain. The EU is over this Brexit charade. They won't drag out talks or give more time when it is clear the majority of Britain wanted out. There is no 'taksies-backsies' now.
It was only two weeks ago that Tusk said we could call the whole thing off if we wanted
I think Jacob Rees-Mogg would have a thing or two to say about that though, and Farage would be back in a jiffy. Not to mention that Brexiteers are likely the rioting types.

I initially did too, but if you take some time to get your own house in order, it becomes a lot easier to relax and allow this bullshit to ride out.
If you have any EU heritage, get another passport - I applied for an Irish one though my mother, it was an easy process. Whatever finances you have, try to minimise exposure - I don't have much but got a friend who does to help. Get a backup plan - do some research and exploring to find somewhere you could see yourself living that has a demand/industry suitable for your skillset (it's no use just saying "France!" - get specific - the more you know the better you'll feel, even if all you do is just start to learn a language).
