The worst that could happen now is the EU conjures up some way to help May's deal go through.
The next worst is we stumble into No Deal ....... because we've spent more than two years unpreparing ourselves for it despite knowing the EU didn't want us to leave and were hardly going to be helpful in the tangential negotiations.
After that comes somehow falling flat on our faces into a Labour / Nick Bolesish pretend- Brexit that ties us into some customs-union Norway + Canada position that we'd grasp like a drowning man clutching the least buoyant of straws.
Level pegging with that Labour-disaster would be the farce of another referendum ....... whatever dopey result it delivered.
Above all of them would simply be revoking Article 50 and calling a General Election to coincide with the idiot EU elections which do at least provide us with a weak little voice for the other 27 largely to disregard (probably wisely). And we'd also get to see what kind of crazy government we could create for ourselves for the long period to be known as The Great Forgetting as we forlornly attempted to assign the whole Brexit episode the status of a kind of anti-Dreamtime.
IMO that the EU is pants. It offers no real future. But the true extent of our genius is that not only have we managed to cock-up getting any worthwhile deal, but also we've somehow managed to make leaving without a deal almost impossible to envision with a series of half-baked, incomplete and fatuous preparations.
We've spent all this time apparently negotiating to leave and allowed staying in to become a better option. If these people weren't so stupid and incompetent I'd be coming up with a conspiracy theory ...... but Mrs May is more Davros and Davos.
