  • What does that have to do with the EU though

    it has to do with the fact that London wanted to stay in the EU and the fact people were frustrated and wanted to try something different.

    Hasn’t the UK become significantly poorer and had greater inequality since Brexit

    yeah but we’ve also had severe mismanagement and the price rises of the Ukraine war since so hard to say definitively Brexit did it

    Ireland’s pretty well respected in the EU

    no they aren’t the only ones respected in the EU are France and Germany. EU couldn’t give less of a shit about Ireland although at the moment they are a useful way to get back at the UK. This is not the first time European powers have leveraged Ireland against England though they didn’t care about the Irish then and they don’t now. After a while they will once again lose interest in Ireland


  • really depends on region. brexit was for most of the country just wanting to do something anything different. Large amount of frustration with Londoners being condescending to them while the parts of the country they live in suffer from underinvestment

    a very strong part of leave was the idea that Britain will never be respected in Europe because we aren’t on the continent and thus we’re better not being part of any pan european movement. Also Poland wanted out of the EU too at the time

    I’m not denying racism was a part of it but it wasn’t all of it or even most. And it’s not like the idea of European brotherhood isn’t racially charged either









  • no I’ve seen bush talk he is stupid. Bush didn’t get in trouble because he has manners. The establishment doesn’t hate Trump for who he is he’s an old money rich guy maing tax cuts and hating immigrants ffs he is the establishment. Trump gets in trouble because he has no filter and says things which make the American establishment look like a bunch of assholes in front of their society friends and in Europe

    He is the most American president they’ve ever had and he’s just embarassing
