Respect! I like how you brought a number of opinions here, away from stereotypes, without negativity. Like you I am a Brit living in Germany, but much longer. I spent 2 months there last year, touring the south / south west and then north with my sister. My view: UK is diminished from leaving Europe, but in no danger of ‘dying’. It’s a non-political view - almost everywhere I encountered the decency and friendliness of people, and I think that will always endure, however difficult circumstances may be.
I tend to agree. It's not dying BUT 17 million people voted for a smaller economy, fewer jobs, fewer opportunities and a much lower standard of living, and lots and lots of immigrants from all over the world. As a retired person I asked my investment advisor to recommend funds for my savings to go into many markets across the globe. If any one of them should fall over then hopefully I can carry on. If there is a global economic catastrophe then we're all up the Swanee! I realise now "Global Britain" was surreptitious advice to get a good part of your savings out of the UK for good! The jingoism was just an appeal to the uneducated.
Brexit means less Europeans in the in UK and more immigrants from further afield like Asia and Africa, as well as less trade and economic activity in the UK. Plus the Brits have lost the freedom to travel, live, work, and retire across the entire continent. What a baffling decision that was.
@@Three_Lions-1986 No, if you only hold a British passport, you can't live, work, or retire in the EU. You are now treated like anyone else from outside the EU, such as a Nigerian or a Pakistani, in this regard.
When people with little money fight with other people with little money, accusing each other for being the reason for having no money. Meanwhile totally forgetting that England has probably the same problem as all countries, where the top 1% own as much as the bottom 50% or something like that >.
I think your remarks are very negative ,i am in the one percent and always give to beggars plus my old cloths and used items always go to charity shops ,what more can i do ? I was born into this position so its not my fault
@@marksimons8861 you want me to give up my wealth? Wash your mouth out. I work hard and arrange services to fit into my life and wishes ,why is that wrong? Wouldnt everyone do the same infact dont they do it now but im just better than they are at arranging so should i be penalised for others stupidity
@@marksimons8861 hmmm my replies are deleted. Someone doesnt like truth except their own truth but oh well . Paying for services would leave the poor isolated. Britain was based on giving help to those who truly needed it,but today the system is being raped by selfish self interested people who only care about what they have hence streets full of caravans ,tents, beggars , empty shops and chaps from other nations bringing their culture with then and destroying ours.
@ you missed the point, the 1% is responsible for the conditions we all live under especially when wealth is pretty much one sided. We get taxed to the bone whilst the rich get tax cuts , the system is bleed dry and the middle class is eroding infront of your eyes. Politicians left and right selling off the country and starting culture wars to create smoke and mirrors they privatise our systems and sold off to highest bidder claiming to save the failing system that they depleted. We are being played by our own people whilst capitalism puts everyone including “boat people” under the same conditions. We have more in common with those boat people than we will ever have with the rich. Immigration is an issue but why ? Capitalism is working for one side more than the other. It’s by design and we act like it all appeared in thin air.
The most infuriating thing - to me - is, that it was based on a non-binding public referendum. The governement had no obligation to go through with it, they _knew_ it would be disastrous, yet they did it anyways... Grüße aus Deutschland
The problem is clear and simple: 1) We are facing a serious problem from Islamic fundamentalism. It is borderline impossible to differentiate between a moderate Muslim and an extremist Muslim. The "grooming gangs" inquiry from Telford, Rochdale and many more English towns, cities and villages are proof we have a problem. I repeat not ALL Muslims are a problem - but there is an issue. 2) We are experiencing a surge in illegal immigration - thousands are arriving on our shores year after year. These are mostly young males fleeing poverty, persecution and a hard life from mostly Sub-Saharan and Middle-Eastern nations. However, the problem is we have ZERO background checks on these people. Now, I am not saying they are ALL dangerous, but there is a good chance we will have more than a couple of bad apples amongst those that come here illegally or the "boat people" as the senior lady said in the video. 3) Women are starting to feel unsafe. As you`re living in Deutschland, that is Germany, why do you think the AfD is growing? Do you remember the 2015-16 New Year's Eve sexual assault scandal in Germany? Approximately 1,200 women were sexually assaulted by migrant men. Only a handful of these men were convicted!! Why do you think the National Rally is strong in France? Why does Sweden have the highest homicide rates in Europe after Ukraine? Simply look at the crime statistics for the Swedish city of Malmö!!! Why does Denmark have strict policies when it comes to non-EU immigration? Why has Poland reported ZERO domestic attacks, that is terrorist attacks? The police reports are very clear, the sudden crime spurges in Germany and Sweden are directly correlated to a certain influx of migrants from non-EU countries.
We studied the EU for semesters at the uni as it's hundreds of pages of difficult legal texts, decision processes, etc. To ask a simple in/out question that does hand the elites a blank cheque what to do as the question didn't specify many things.
@@LaluBhaiya1233 Just open your eyes and look the european parliament run by Ursula von der Leyen, its madness open boarders, Net Zero and crime getting worse daily, the only good thing about EU the PM's Viktor Orbán and Dominik Tarczynski
When people talk about immigration, the left always shout 'xwnophobia'. It's much more complex than that, but the left are ideological rather than practical. Public services, culture, taxes, housing is all affected by immigration.
@@underdonkey5 The immigrants are being bought in deliberately to fill in the aging population gap - not enough babies to sustain the economy. If you look into it, immigrants plough in huge amounts into the economy. If the powers that be didn't want immigration, it would stop tomorrow - it's not difficult

Did the elderly Brexit supporting couple actually say things got worse under the last government (ie the one that dragged us out of the EU)? I wonder if she spotted the irony.
well, depends. people who have an easier time embracing risk and change will have an advantage over those who don't. and if those who don't can't afford having children then that's the whole premise of survival of the fittest right there. to be fair, that only checks out like this when there's no financial benefit of having kids from the goverment side. not sure how that works in the uk.
I said this before but it's mind-boggling to me that "politician" is pretty much the only job where there's absolute no accountability whatsoever ... Like if a doctor mess up an operation, he can go to jail ... if an engineer builds a bad bridge, he can go to jail. But when politicians literally ruin an entire country's economy and engages in useless wars etc. they just blame something/someone else and move on, it's incredible!

That's exactly how it is. Fewer mainland Europeans. The number of Muslims has been rising much faster since Brexit.

Thats because they're entering Europe faster. It was merkle that invited them here. Brexit isn't the cause of this mess stop spreading lies@TimGrad

You should have stated that you interviewed people in two locations St Albans and Luton, both are very different, but you knew what you were doing.
yes, The original idea was to do it all in Luton. But I wanted to get opinions from an other area also :)
but I spoke to someone off camera he said for a better opinion you need to go to Luton :)
