    It surprises me that so many people think it didn’t fail. Remainers, which as far as I can remember nearly made up 50%, will almost all think it has failed from the start because they see the whole Brexit as a failed idea. And many Brexiteers seemed to have very unrealistic ideas about Brexit, seemingly thinking that they could just boss the EU around and get everything their way. And because we don’t live in their fairytale Brexit utopia world, they would always have been disappointed. Add to that the general incompetency of the Conservatives and it’s honestly quite astounding that anyone still thinks it’s going well.

      Maybe someday one of the politicians will grow a pair and either launch rejoin agenda or at the least a Norway/Swiss model.

      It should be clear to anyone with more than an 🦠 for a brain cell that it is a failed ideal.

        The eu won’t allow another Norway or Swiss model. It’s created too many headaches. Of the uk rejoins, they will commit to the euro and lose their CAP rebate, just like any other new entrant. It’ll probably only take 10 years before accession talks.

          The price the UK will have to pay. What can I say, play stupid games win stupid prizes.

          But even that price would be more beneficial than the present state of affairs.

            Lol. Right now British passports are waiting in the “everyone else” line at various immigration checkpoints around Europe. Citizens of fucking Bulgaria get to go through the express entry, which is basically just scanning your passport like you’re entering the subway.

            Bulgaria has a better passport than you Britain, and you’re waiting behind some fat Americans saying they can’t wait to “see the home of French fries”, in Paris…
