    EU doesn't want UK anymore. UK wanted to keep the benefits of EU without the duties. well, dream on UK.

    2019: Worst case Brexit scenario - Markets could crash, food shortages, lack of hospital supplies. But you don't have to hide in your bunker just yet. 2020: So, about COVID-19...

    Not really surprising for May wanting to basically keep all benefits from the EU while ditching all obligations at the same point. Also not surprising that the EU won't buy it.

    This is an example of “don’t fix something that isn’t broken”
  • I've heard about Brexit literally for years so i finally decided to watch a video about it because the only thing i knew about it is the leaving eu part

    Checker is not acceptable for EU. You are forgetting you have to negotiate with EU not just with yourselves

    If they want to leave, fine by me. But then they HAVE TO ACCEPT the consequences. If you dont want to pay for an elite membership, then you cant demand the same rights as a Full member
