      A lot of Leave voters simply didn't think it would win, and voted for it as a protest against Cameron. Others simply didn't think it would win or that it would not be acted upon, and voted for it as a way to strengthen the UK's hand in future talks with the EU. Neither of those groups believe in brexit, of course.
      But there are many people that got exactly what they wanted: many Brits of South Asian descent were told (by Priti Patel a.o.) that less Europeans would mean more South Asian immigrants. It was even presented more broader to voters as the solution to the "curry chef shortage". People that voted based on that have gotten exactly what they wanted.

      I was a stay at Home mom with no money in my IRA or any savings of my own, which was scary at 53 years of age. Three years ago I got a part time job and save everything I make. After 3 years, I am 56 yo and have put $9,000 in an IRA and $40,000 in my portfolio with CFA, Abby Joseph Cohen. Since the goal of getting a job was to invest for retirement and NOT up my lifestyle, I was able to scale this quickly to $150,000. If I can do this in a year, anyone can.

    I've spent my vacations in the UK every year since I was young, but I haven't been back since Brexit. I also stopped ordering things from there due to the increased expenses. It's easier for me to visit other countries now. Initially, I planned to move to the UK after completing my studies, but now I'm considering Ireland or East Asia instead. This has been the only change for me, but I can see the immense and dramatic impact it has had on UK citizens. Brexit has completely changed the world. I feel sorry for those who voted against it, especially the young people who can no longer benefit from EU programs. It's disheartening to hear about the UK's developments. Many of the issues don't come as surprises and were bound to happen, which is why the Brexit vote was so shocking for me. It seems like the global influence of the UK is steadily declining.

      For that matter Cameron was not really a remainer either. What europhile would ask "do you want to leave yes or no?" in the best case scenario, it is "no, we dont", and nothing is gained, and it goes on as before, while nobody forced you into a referendum in the first place. worst case and most likely scenario, knowing the eurosceptic nature of the british people, the yes wins and the europhile loses everything. the question itself could tell what was the end game.
      in France when we had a referendum about Europe a few years back, it was "do you want more europe , meaning more integration in a political union, yes or no?". even when people answered no, nothing was lost. A europhile just does not organize a referendum that just weakens his-her position. the whole thing was just silly to begin with. but everyone went with it.
      the whole thing was a scam . Against the EU (devised to weaken the union, hoping for a domino effect) and against the people of Britain, who lost the umbrella provided by the EU. because deep down, what people like about the EU is its antiglobalist stand. together, europeans can organise food independence, energy independence, and resist to economic wars by the USA or China, retaliating with tarifs. That is the precise opposite of the "free trade deals". the whole brexit was a globalist operation, and look at the only thing they brag about ever since. Having "free trade deals" the world over. the only ones beneficiaries of free trade deals are the banksters in the city, who can speculate on everything, being your gas bill or the value of your shopping cart at Tesco's.
      the brexit you obtained is exactlly the brexit that was wanted and organized by the powers truly controlling the political system. They hid behind "democracy" as the vote could get them what they wanted in this particular instance. but now that the Brits want a second vote, all parties have already made clear there will be no more referendum on this subject.

    Several mistakes here. 52% of the population of the UK didn't vote for Brexit. Only 52% of the votes. Among them there were about 1 million Commonwealth citizens that were given a vote even with short residence rights, whilst EU citizens living in the UK for decades had no voice and even British citizens abroad had their right either denied after 15 years or severely limited due to issues with postal votes. Also, once May acted on art 50, the UK only had 2 years to leave. There were some extensions due to the UK's lack of preparation and COVID, and the EU was quite generous by setting up different timescales for the UK so it didn't fall off the cliff on day one. Now it is fully done, so new scapegoats are needed.

      It also moved a lot of qualifications to university that could be vocational training. As an example, a nurse in Germany will be trained in a hospital with classroom training and practical experience.

      Making nursing a compulsory university/degree was a Labour party policy introduced by Blair, at the same time as he hiked university fees, and removed the nurses bursary payments....... making nursing less attractive as a profession...... but he could of course reep the benefits of cheap labour from abroad, but the EU, the commonwealth and elsewhere. This "professionalisation of nursing" also created a void in the NHS, as nurses became more akin to junior doctors, and their more "menial tasks" of patient care was taken over by the cheap imported, lesser qualified carer profession.

    Brexit was inevitable. The UK was never going to tolerate the EU's top-down approach. It was a clash of fundamental philosophies about how economies and societies should be run.
    But here's the kicker: The UK had no real plan for what to do after Brexit.
    They knew what they didn't want (EU control), but had no clear vision of what they did want.
    The result? A mess. The UK economy is floundering. They've got:
    No coherent economic strategy
    Chronic underinvestment
    Stagnant growth
    A services-heavy economy that's vulnerable to global shifts
    Persistent inequality that's among the worst in Europe
    The score isn't just negative; it's a disaster.
    The UK rejected the EU's approach but failed to replace it with anything better.
    They're now stuck in a limbo of their own making - free from EU rules but with no clear direction of their own.
    It's a textbook case of "be careful what you wish for."
    They got their independence but are now realizing that independence without a plan is just another word for chaos.

    I don't see any coverage about the fact that British workers without an EU passport are now second-class workers. They compete at a disadvantage against workers that do have an EU passport, because they can not travel and work as easily in the EU. That matters more in some sectors and professions than in others, of course, hitting especially hard in managerial and professional jobs.

    The EU actually did do a deal with the UK with "zero tariffs and zero quota". It's just that that does not amount to free trade. There is a distinct possibility that clowns like Farage and Johnson never understood that. What's more surprising is that otherwise pretty keen policy men like Gove and Hannan may not have understood this either, or rather simply didn't understand the magnitude of it.
