I'm a UK passport holder and I moved to France on 31st Dec 2020 to retain some of my EU rights. I am very angry that many of my former work colleagues who voted for Brexit were Irish passport holders. They thought it was funny that they could vote but wouldn't be affected. One person in a different department was Australian, he was permitted to vote (for Brexit) then he went back to Australia. Oddly over a million UK citizens living in the EU were not allowed to vote.

[@theultimatereductionist7592]

I recall when Brexit was being pushed, commentators like Max Keiser said that leaving the EU WOULD cause hardship that going it alone WOULD cause hardship, but that that hardship of rebuilding your own economy would be outweighed by the independence from EU rules. The only reason I liked Max Keiser was because he and his partner Stacey Herbert spoke out against Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW) caused by the fossil fuel industry and selfish consumers' car dependence. So, my question is: how many, how much of those predicted benefits of being free from EU rules came to pass?

I'm a Brit living in Austria. I came back to visit my family the thing I noticed (amongst a few things) was the lack of staff at pub restaurants. It use to be a night out and you had waitress serving you. Now apart from bringing out the meals you did it all, get the menu and your knife, fork and spoon then go back into the bar to give over your order AND PAY FOR IT. When I asked why the change the girl told me. A lot of the staff when COVID came they went back to their countries and because of Brexit they just found it too much hassle to come back.

[@marketingsolutions6691]

It’s the same reason, I will have to leave the UK soon. I’ve been absent for a long time during Covid, and because of that an extension for my pre-settled status will not be granted. In addition, I do not think applying for a visa is worth it as there are better opportunities in the EU. So, Europeans that are facing these challenges are being called to make the rational decision to leave the UK.

@@dimiathan All Britons know they are part of Europe geographically. It is just easier to say "Europe" or "the continent" when referring to the mainland from over here. Do we feel culturally semi-detached from Europe in a way that other Europeans usually don't? Probably, because we also have what the French call the "Anglosphere" that pulls us in a different direction in terms of language, history, popular culture, legal systems, accountancy practice, etc., etc.. A bigger question is whether "Europe" really exists as a distinct entity? It looks a lot like the western peninsula of Eurasia, to me.

She got zero support from the UK Government but thankfully the fees were zero as at the time we were in the EU. There were probably 200 or so UK students at the Medical School. Once we left the EU all UK students had to pay overseas student fees on top of living expenses. At the time these were £30k per year for 5 years. Needless to say the UK contingent have been wiped out. And that was just one EU country training UK doctors. It is such a shame this opportunity is now lost to future generations. The same issue has now hit EU students wanting courses at UK Universities. Admissions have plummeted and universities are struggling financially to run courses.

[@miked4122]

@@4tnine It's hardly a ringing endorsement that we have maintained our position in the world economic rankings when so many wonderful promises were made about Brexit. You don’t mention the fact it is now more difficult to travel, live and work in Europe or that many parts of our economy (even those who voted for Brexit) complain about the lack of foreign labour. Both importers and exporters are unhappy about the extra bureaucracy which increases costs and time that has persuaded some to abandon trade with Europe. The trade deals that have been negotiated are almost insignificant compared to our gross GDP. Many of them are no better than what we had in the EU. In the case of the farmers they consider themselves to be at a disadvantage with some of the trade deals. The big trade deals with countries like the USA could be years away and we’ll probably have to make significant concessions to get them agreed. The EU is not perfect but you imply some sinister motive of them but don’t elaborate on our own personal conspiracy theory.

[@Joey-ct8bm]

@@4tnine You tell me! I see a rightwing vote in the polls and a more sovereign stance for countries in the EU.

[@4tnine]

@@miked4122 Hello miked4122 The fact that the UK has maintained its global economic ranking clearly demonstrates that things are not as bad as many remainers would have us believe. The gap in GDP between the UK and France was not that great to start with, so why hasn’t France (an EU member) overtaken the UK? Fact is, the EU has done everything possible to scupper brexit, it has not negotiated in good faith because it knows that a successful UK would threaten the EU project. I recall that during the referendum campaign many remainers argued that it would take at least 5 to 10 years to recover from brexit. Strange then, that many are calling brexit a disaster well before their own time scales have come to an end. And just how many years of normal trading under brexit have we had? Taking into account the transition period, the pandemic, the war in Ukraine and the global cost-of-living crisis, it’s been about 2 years, hardly time to call brexit a disaster. It should be noted that 4 out of the top 5 economies in the world are not members of the EU, proof then, that you don’t have to be in that wannabe “empire,” (to quote Guy Verhofstadt) to have a successful economy. With respect to travel, ‘yes,’ it is more difficult to travel across the EU as that organisation has applied the same rules to the UK as to every other country that is not a member; though Switzerland and a few other European countries do have agreements in place. With respect to me implying that the EU has a “sinister motive,” you are wrong - the EEC / EU has made no secrets about its goal to create a “United States of Europe,” you just have to take the trouble to read the organisation’s own literature. The only objection I have to people wanting to rejoin the EU is that time after time they have demonstrated (to me) that they do not understand what kind of organisation it is and what it is aspiring to become. Perhaps you would like to explain or are you going to be like almost every remainer I’ve come across and demand that I explain? As if that response in some way counters my question.

[@4tnine]

@@Joey-ct8bm Hello Joey. “You tell me!” you have demanded to know in response to a question I posed miked4122. Sorry but I do not know the level of understanding that miked4122 has of the EU; you will have to ask him that question. With respect to polls you really shouldn’t take any notice of them, the only result that matters is the one at the ballot box. However, perhaps the stance on sovereignty that you see some EU countries making is due to the fact that many European politicians and citizens are finally starting to understand the EU’s objective: the creation of a “United States of Europe”. This would mean that the policy decisions that are currently made by each members state’s parliament will eventually be made by all EU members in Brussels. Ask yourself, if the UK had remained in the EU, what then, would the EU’s foreign policy have been on Gibraltar, Northern Ireland and the Falklands? If you want the UK to be part of an “empire,” to quote Guy Verhofstadt or a “mega-state” (Mario Draghi) then that’s fine by me, just as long as you understand what that would mean.

I've honestly noticed no difference at all since Brexit. I live in Northern England and travel regularly and haven't even noticed much of a difference at the border.

It's big businesses that traded primarily with EU counties that have suffered and most of them were centred in the south anyway.
