Definitely bad!
Bad for jobs.
Bad for our economy.
Bad for culture.
Bad for our standing in the world.
people liked to blame Europe for all our ills but it actually gave us more than we gave to it when you took into account the benefits to business and jobs and research and diversity.
Yes, around 17 million people voted to leave ... but then around 17 million voted to remain ...and somehow that seems to have been forgotten.

@EnglishLitLover yes for me i think it is too
seen a few friends lose there jobs becasue of the slow down
prices have risen which isnt easy beign a single mum
yes bad for culture
yes i noticed the mps have blamed the eu for a lot of things then it comes out later it was their fault
yes i feel the people who voted to remain have been left behind and have to just accept anything no matter how bad it is

@EnglishLitLover I disagree with your last point. On the contrary, as I see it the government is doing its best to implement the decision of the majority while giving as much weight as possible to the opinions and wishes of the very large minority. An extremely difficult task, of course, but an honourable objective, I suggest.
As for your four “Bads”, three are certainly arguable, but I have never understood the argument that leaving the EU might be bad for culture. I can’t see why it should make any difference. Would you care to elaborate?

@milkymum1 why do you need, a bunch of unelected bureaucrats in a foreign country running your country ? Telling you, how many immigrants you must take, how powerful your vacuum cleaner and hair dryer can be, and you have to pay for the privilege, The EU is nothing but a gravy train

@ididntknow oh my go back to "The Sun and others like that"
the UK after WW2 signed up to international agreement to take in immigrants
We have agreed to take it "our" quota as a prosperous union
We are only 17th on the list of countries taking immigrants
As for rules the EU makes the UK Parliament didnt have to implement them into law but they chose to because its easy for them to do so and blame others for the problems
The ONLY gravy train is the UK, why did we leave because wealthy people told you to vote leave, why, so they dont have to pay taxes, so they can keep avoiding paying taxes and the general public do
Wo is more unelected the UK or the EU, easy the UK do you vote for head of state = no, do you vote for a party leader = no (unless your a member but not for this last PM as NOONE has voted for him), do you vote who goes into the House of Lords = NO , do you vote on who works in the civil service = No
