I voted remain but ultimately its the general public that voted for it. Though I wish people would stop moaning about it (public and government) and just get on with making it work better?
Sadly the EU did everything in their power to stop us leaving in a good way because they were terrified others would leave if they saw it went well. I wish we had stayed but lets put our big boy trousers on and fix the issue not moan about the result, or use it as a scape goat forever.
I think we should have a second Brexit.
This would be so much more convincing if the comparable economies in Europe were growing much faster.
You can just say Brexiteers
Reading the tabloids this week I think it’s clear the deficit is because of poor children definitely not Brexit, austerity or Boris fucking clown shoes Johnson
Can’t believe there’s still people defending brexit
I mean brexit didn’t help but the illegals don’t help either.
Money collected in taxes shouldn’t go to feeding, clothing or housing ppl who break into our country.
If someone breaks into your house you dont help them rob you.
Booker as always just ruining our country.
If Starmer wants to keep his job, just reverse Brexit, call it a fucking National emergency or whatever you need to do, go cap in hand to the EU and ask them to help facilitate the breaking down of trade barriers, better control of the migrant situation and everyone fucking wins, except Nigel and his Russian paid pals.
Dumbest thing we ever did and it effected young people who couldn’t even vote the most
I was like 6 and something i didnt even know what happening practically ruined all chances of me getting out of this stupid country
Whilst the uk did have brexit and yes it was a massive shock to the system and did cause ‘economic drag’ in a load of areas, with the uk now to this day being out paced by Germany and France in a lot of key performance indicators.
This is changing slowly and due to brexit the uk economy is now aligning itself more closely to America.
The uk by voting for brexit, may not of known it at the time but basically chose the USA over the EU.
Due to the American economy doing amazingly this might work out better in the long run.
So whilst ‘OP’ meme is technically correct. Uk aligning itself with America in the long run will mean the UK will out pace Germany and France and be a lot stronger in a lot of areas, economically.
Socially, like human rights, and inclusivity, maybe not and we can see the shift now to the typical bi-partisan American political arena in uks day to day workings. Gb news and the stance on immigration + ECHR, whilst British centric have taken on American arguments.
Due to the UK needing to allign itself with America to ensure life after Brexit is a success, pro-american parties would be more advantageous than pro-eu.
Issue is this would encompass the uk basically becoming a quasi state of America.
Can’t believe ppl still blaming brexit
On their defense a lot of the Brexiters voted that way to curb or eliminate immigration.
So if brexit is the reason for all the country’s problems how did we have the problems before brexit 🤔
The UK economy was flatlining almost over a decade before Brexit, and historically speaking, the UK economy has never performed very well since WW2. The 1950s and 60s was defined by stop go economics, devaluation, literally begging the IMF for bailouts, the 70s saw the collapse of Keynesianism and an economic situation unseen since the 1930s (and no, today is nowhere near as bad as the 70s and the early 80s), the 80s saw deindustrialisation and monetarism, which lays the foundation for some of the systemic issues we have today, though it did lead to a general boom in the late 80s through the 90s and into the early 00s.
Trying to pin Britain’s current economic issues on BrExIt or indeed any particular party is stupid – economic problems, particularly as severe as the ones we have today, come about due to the culminative effect of decades and multiple governments worth of economic mismanagement, not very short term issues like Brexit.
The entire developed world has struggled since the 2008 Recession (the only country to actually have recovered from it was the US), and in truth the UK is doing a lot better than many EU nations. Brexit was a mistake but trying to blame the current problems solely on it when it is a very, very minimal factor just shouts to me that your uninformed, and honestly, stupid.
The Comrades understand there was more to Brexit than the Capitalist bottom line of GDP. Sovereignty, regulatory freedom, fisheries, immigration control etc. were all additional considerations. Besides, the cost estimates compare reality to a hypothetical remain path. Different assumptions about how the UK would have grown inside the EU produce different answers and are a major source of disagreement. Academic groups and even the OBR are explicit about that. There’s a decent amount of counterfactual uncertainty as estimates compare actual outcomes to a would have been model, which depends on assumptions about productivity trends, investment responses, and how firms would have behaved had we not Brexited. The economy isn’t fucked just because of Brexit, that’s something a lot of people tell themselves so they can sleep at night. Since we’d still be fucked even if we remained, domestic policy is probably more to blame anyway.
Brexit also literally is responsible for the current situation we have surrounding immigrants, people got played so hard and now they’re being convinced to do it all again based on their own action. It’s like punching yourself in the face and then getting angry at your fist.
Brexit was kind of one of the symptoms of a struggling economy, if there was no 2008 crash, austerity and the like, having Eastern European migrants wouldn’t have been seen as such a big issue as the current migration crisis.
When did reform get in power?
Nailed it
The Brexit vote was against the globalisation that hurt so many communities in the deprived industrial areas of the UK. It’s astounding to me that so many supposedly “left of centre” people think we should go cap in hand to an organisation which would hinder our chance at having a successful nationalised economy or booming industry.
Many problems reduced to a shit meme let’s go lads the future is now
Google GDP per capita
Rejoining might be the best play, but convincing everyone is another battle altogether. It’s a tricky situation.
Yet the economy in Canada Australia , America and most of Europe is equally as bad, almost like it was a global problem yet people still cling to brexit as some sort of excuse to try blame “the others” when it’s politicians both sides that have by design created this shit show around the world

For Brexit to work it needs a government who actually wanted Brexit and we have to leave the ECHR to get the full benefits

Isn’t this a meme sub reddit? Why is there *SO MUCH* political chatter? Take it to a political sub reddit.

It was a referendumđź«©
The cognitive dissonance is strong with this one.
Covid was biggest factor?
I see us rejoining in like 20 years
