Dear British People,

enough is enough.
Really. Stop making an ass of yourselves. You are nice and kind and lovely people, do you really want to become the laughing stock of the civilized world?
"The people have spoken", haha. Just accept the fact that Brexit was/is/will always be a textbook example of a crackpot idea that leads nowhere but down.
Now get rid of the Demonic Possession and come back home please. We Europeans aren't perfect either, and we will happily accept your sincere apologies. Just send us a bottle of Isle of Skye whisky and an annual subscription to the Royal Shakespeare Company, and we will be fine. See you in Paris/Berlin/Rome next summer, let's get drunk [and I [u]mean[/u] drunk!], and let's have a good laugh together, about this present madness. 🌷

Yours cordially,
helenS.

[[b]Note added: this post is no longer relevant[/b]. The majority of British people have now decided, at their peril, to harm their own interests, and "get Brexit done". So be it. Go find more trustworthy friends. Mr. Trump is waiting for you. 😕]

@samueltyler2 I'm certain both won't suffer , but I'm very confident the uk will be better off and if the eu don't cut off their nose to spite their face...they will be fine...

@Platinum I am not as optimistic.

Platinum · M

Explain why@samueltyler2

samueltyler2 · 80-89, M

@Platinum after centuries of wars, there was finally a peace and open commerce. There was a positive move towards improvement in the environment and health. The cooperation was palpable to me as a tourist. I never understood why UK didn't adopt the Euro. Now, I guess, it was a good thing. But, for the EU it is so much easier to "think" in a single currency.

None of that answers why..."..do you honestly think anything will change@samueltyler2

samueltyler2 · 80-89, M

@Platinum I am worried that rolling back the progress of the last 20 some years will cause problems on both sides. That will have to satisfy you.

Platinum · M

What progress....they are charging us more money each year and they are trading less with us , it's down 11% in the last ten years....why are you worried as an American ...we will end up trading with the USA that is good for both countries...@samueltyler2

@Platinum obviously, you and I will never agree so why should I even bother?

Platinum · M

I'm not asking you to agree with me ....just interested why you are so worried, how can I disagree with you if you can't be polite enough to explain your reasons for why you are worried....then you have proved nothing....@samueltyler2
