Why Was Brexit the Biggest Mistake in UK History?
There is no shortage of blunders and disasters in British history. There have been many risky ventures gone wrong, but few come close to the mistakes made by Brexit. The referendum on Brexit has already led to the resignation of the Prime Minister and the Chancellor of the Exchequer. There is a new ministry to deal with the UK’s exit from the EU. The Brexit minister has already spent much of his time trying to win a legal challenge to the parliamentary vote, but it was lost on both occasions. The government has also failed to provide detailed plans for the exit from the EU.
Freedom of movement has been lost by British citizens. This means that it is more difficult to be able to live, work and study in Europe. Depriving millions of people the opportunity to enjoy travel and culture outside of the UK. Special permissions, permits and visas now have to be acquired by British citizens if they want to leave the UK. Causing a disruption in time and finances, means this is impossible now for many. Including the elderly who used to enjoy the freedom of retirement abroad, their dreams have been squashed. The Uk is a laughing-stock of Europe and have caused their own self destruction, due to the lies of their British Prime Minister and parliament.
As a result, many European workers are now avoided the Uk as a place of work. Resulting in many industries such as agriculture and the hospitality industry, lacking staff for their business. As a consequence, many UK companies have relocated their companies, firms and businesses to more advantageous European cities. Subsequently, the Uk economy is loosing millions as these big corporations leave the UK.
The British government has argued that the EU’s withdrawal from the bloc is necessary for the UK to keep trade relations with the bloc. But EU diplomats say the UK has delayed giving up on key bloc interests and has forced Brussels into taking a more hawkish stance on market access. In addition, the EU and the UK agreed to include an idea of “rebalancing measures” in the agreement. Such measures would apply to both sides when they diverge from each other’s rules.
The EU is angry with the UK for repeatedly saying it is sovereign, which undermines its sovereignty. It was also worried about setting precedents that could open the door to other trading partners to renegotiate the deal. It wanted to show the cost of leaving the EU without a proper settlement, and it didn’t want to contradict the EU’s position. Therefore, the British government has taken a massive step backwards.
The conventional view of Brexit is that it is an aberration and epic stupidity. Historically, mid-size countries have been part of multi-nationalism blocs and could compete with the superpowers. By opting for Brexit, the UK has cast itself into exposed waters of economic isolation. The United States is also doing the same by implementing trade barriers. But the core countries of the Eurozone could have done more to make Britain feel more secure and avoid the half-built federal state.
The EU had imposed tough demands on the United Kingdom. The UK has been left with a shaky economy and has not had a common currency for almost five years. The UK has suffered from multiple crises since its withdrawal from the EU. In the past decade, it was a disaster for the economy. The country has voted to leave the European Union to stop illegal immigration and restore its democracy.
The UK has left the European Economic Area and stepped outside the customs union. This means that the UK is now in a market of one country. The single market should have a free-trade area, and Britain could not join a customs union if it wanted to. There are no trade agreements in Europe today. As a result, Brexit is an utter disaster for the United Kingdom!
The decision to leave the EU raises fundamental questions for national governments, globalized economies, and ordinary citizens. The UK’s withdrawal from the EU has been the largest disenfranchisement in the history of the United Kingdom. It is no longer a member of the road traffic policy of the EU. However, it is a member of other international treaties, including the Vienna Convention on Road Traffic. By leaving the EU, it was formally disenfranchised.
The decision to leave the EU has been seen as the end of an era and the beginning of an unknown new one. Some conservatives see Brexit as the end of the EU’s influence and say that it was the best thing to happen to the UK. The UK is no longer a part of the European Union. It has also lost its sovereignty, which has weakened the nation’s economy. The British people’s political system has been undermined by the government.
The UK’s Parliament is under enormous strain, and it is still unsure whether it will rejoin in the EU under the Conservative party. After all, its what the people voted for! The decision is an act of radicalism and could even lead to a break from the EU, but there is still time to reverse the decision if a new party is voted in and the British citizens see that Brexit was the biggest mistake in modern history. Unfortunately, the repercussions of Brexit are significant.
