      Sadly it's inevitable it seems, all these years of peace means there will be the next generations that takes it all for granted, and starts hating other people again, meaning again there will be war... Maybe not in the same way as the 2 World Wars, but for sure just as devastating...
      Because it will be like slowly turning up the heat on a frog until it's boiling alive without noticing...
      We will just become worse and worse and that will become more and more normal and just a fact of life ... Or we will have an official World War 3... Or a much bigger than the World Wars combined, leaving humanity basically having to start over... Or we will just destroy ourselves with disease or other natural disasters, as always hitting the poor and those in need of help the hardest...
      There is also the possibility of us learning from something that will be the breaking point later on, but then we will inevitably do it again in 100-200 years time again...

Importers, exporters, gutted. Because they didn't have the paperwork processes right, goods are not allowed into the EU.Regular businesses that sold and sourced mostly within the EU , going out of business or have taken the huge expense to uproot and move to the EU. Corporate HQs moving to EU cities. Brits already living in the EU are giving up their citizenship for EU member country's citizenship. And it is just getting started since it was only official on Jan 4.
    All because they wanted to have their supremacy and ideas of their old kingdom back, where they could take, take take and never have to share. I only feel bad for those who voted remain .

      That's what the media says even though this is only a minority. In reality, the British like many other EU countries who are waiting for a referendum are just waiting to recover their democracies. Being part of the EU means transferring your sovereignty to Brussels, and therefore being unable to make your own policies. Also, let's be reminded that the EU is anti-democratic by nature. Among other examples, when the French voted by referendum against the EU constitution in 2005 at 55%, they got traumatized because it was imposed on them in 2008. By leaving the EU, you get back to democracy, which is the government of the people, by the people, for the people.
      Also, even though all the politicians and medias predicted an economic catastrophe following the leave, today they were proven wrong (which the FMI even acknowledged). Not only did the UK experienced a rapid economic growth but its unemployment is at its lowest since the 1970s.

When the pandemic hit the UK did such a far better job than the EU in vaccine procurement and administration that the EU threatened to sue us demanding we give them OUR vaccines. Since Brexit happened the UK economy has grown far faster than Germany and the same as France.

Not to forget immigration, many contracts and laws, taxes, etc.
