The dream held by the Brexiters seems to be well and truly dead.
There is a lot of “I voted Brexit and now admit my mistake” kind of sentiment going around at the moment. I saw a youtube video of a pensioner who basically drove around Europe in his caravan, staying 9 months a year in Spain who voted for Brexit. He was now saying what a mistake it was; but here’s the rub… The twat was not sorry for the damage that he had caused to the economy or the youth of the UK. All he was concerned about was the effect that it was having on him; the selfish prick! Upset that his caravan needed to be sold as he could only travel 90 days out of 180 and so it had doubled his living costs and how he and his friends vans were now worth a fraction of what they were as no-one wants them due to the restrictions.
Fuck him and fuck the others like him. Self pitying selfish pricks who are reaping what they sewed.
My heart bleeds for the youth and those that voted no to Brexit. The ones that vote leave deserve everything they get and more! Fuck 'em.
Rant over…
I left the UK in part due to Brexit. I’m a British citizen too.
I remember drinking with my friends and my Austrian friend said this to me: we will be fine, we are in tech, we may earn less but we will survive … the ones that will hurt most are the idiots that voted for this.
I like his sentiment, but I wish it were that the ONLY people that would be hurt would be them. For absolutely nothing but a vague sense of nationalism.
Brexit & Trump are Putin’s biggest successes.
I’d say establishing far-right nonsensical talking points in German mainstream is an even bigger success, as Germany was not against its history but because of it immune to right-wing populism until then.

Not just brown people but also Eastern Europeans. You know, the ones that kept their shit going over there.
Polish people aren’t brown
They’re just more polished
They helped them to relocate to other countries that actually appreciate their hard work.
Sorry, but this is just divisive bullshit. They also got blue passports.
Depends which brown. They facilitated immigration from India and Pakistan.
the immigration the current minister wants to stiffle with tougher laws, acknowledging that her family wouldn’t have been able to migrate to Britain under these new laws?
If i understand correctly they just want people to come to work for cheap but not actually immigrate or have a perspective in Britain.
True and from anywhere outside the EU effectively.
As a Brit who fought against Brexit and would welcome reentry at pretty much any price (perhaps bar adopting the Euro, at least for now) reading this sort of news is bitter sweet.
Sadly our leaders don’t care about the actual country so it’ll be a long time before membership happens.
I love how some of the influential millionaires in Britain were really vocal about being pro Brexit, and then as soon as it actually happened, they moved themselves and their business outside of the UK.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, all the right-wing nutjobs never actually want to live somewhere populated and run by their kind. They love all the benefits of liberalism and social safety nets provide, they just don’t want to contribute to any of it.
Nothing but respect for my country deciding to impose economic sanctions on itself 🫡
My thought when i saw this can be summerised in 3 simple words
- no
- shit
- sherlock
Woah, who could have seen this coming?
“Project Fear” sounds like a great name for a survival horror game.
How long until they go crawling back to the EU?
We’re not taking them back!
Sure we are. As soon as they sign on to Schengen and the Euro and a bunch of other stuff they used to have exemptions for.
Britain easily had the best deal with the EU ever. That’s not coming back.
something something the priviledged feel discriminated when their priviledge is called into question.
We should take them back, of course they first have to go through the whole process and they dont get any special treatment.
“sorry, the rectal exam is part of the process now. And please sing the hymns of all member states in the meantime.”
According to the usual criteria, you are not allowed to accept them without massive reforms.

Let’s call it the briturn
But first the Bregret
And then the “Breapply” for membership.
And then the surprised Brekachu face when they hear the conditions.
Briprised?
Breannoyed?
It’s Brivago
The EU would offer them such insulting terms compared to their previous arrangements that they’ll never rejoin.
“beurocracy”
Nice proof reading
pun intended
Here we are, 5 year later, watching UK fade into irrelevance
