Just to balance this thread..... I live in the UK. I can't think of a single disadvantage that has affected me as a result of Brexit. I voted to stay in the EU in 2016 but if I were to vote again, I'd vote to leave. Everyone has a different view but the Brexit ship has already sailed.

And wouldn't it be nice if the special thread on Brexit were to be used instead of Quesada General Discussion. Then those who have had, quite frankly, enough of the slagging matches these generally turn into, could ignore it.

I rather suspect that neither the government nor those who voted for brexit bore in mind the effect on the personal circumstances on the private lives of Spud,Paul M or even myself.
I suspect the vote was for national and international benefits to come in the future.Time will tell.

thereus one benefit for a few but not for the majority. The rich would have had to declare where or rather which, tax haven there wealth is stored, if they are an EU resident and their incomes stored outside the EU the European Bank and Chstoms would by now be investigating.

You've stated that you cant think of a single disadvantage ! so please tell us how much better your life is thats given you some sort of advantage ! The question 'is what benefit have you found thats changed your life for the better' and what is that benefit that would make you vote 'leave' if there was a new vote ! I think many people here want to know what particular advantage you've discovered thats really made your life better !
