  1. At the end of the day, you've got to blame the people of the UK, not enough wanted to educate themselves on what the EU is, the good and bad points of it, and many were blind sided by the lies from much of the right wing media and politicians. We should also remember that the UK has had a very also media when it comes to the EU for decades that have constantly told us the negatives but rarely tell us about the positives of the EU, that constant banging the drum against the EU was overtime bound to have an impact in turning a lot of the British public against the EU, and it was clear from a lot of the Brexiteers, a lot of them didn't know what they were talking about. In the end, there was no accountability on the media when it comes to facts and telling the truth, the British people don't hold the government to account on its actions, we see that with Brexit where the Tories have lied there way through Brexit and yet the British people have let them get away with that, it stands to reason that the government will do the same on other policies and fob the people off because the people don't stand up and pull them into line, that for me is a big part why this country is going down the toilet, and the signs were there before Brexit, it's just made all the worse with Brexit. But seriously, I think the real threat in the UK is the right wing media that have been very effective in poisoning peoples minds, whiles at the same time, making the British public more aggressive on many policies, they are also very effective at getting the public to fight among themselves, all with the aim of a few select elites on the right to push their agenda. I don't see things getting better in the UK any time soon until the British people change and start holding governments and the media to account on what they print and what governments promise, only for them to not deliver on those promises, or to be blunt about this, the real problem isn't the media or the governments, it's the British public where the real problem is, because everything else in the country is a reflection of the people, we like to complain about the government all the time, yet we do little to nothing to make them change to benefit the people. With all that said, I think Brexit was needed, we've let the right wing run riot for too long with their lies, we needed a cold shower of reality to wake us up, Brexit is exposing a lot of the lies from the right, and it's slowly changing public views on the EU and Brexit, but far more needs to be done before this mess is sorted, I suspect another 2 to 3 decades to really hit the right and Eurosceptics hard in the UK, then who knows, we might be able to join the EU, but that's a long way off because I can't see the EU or it's members letting us back in with how we've behaved until there's a sizeable change from the public, media and political parties in how they see the EU projects, that's likely going to take decades, if it happens at all.

  2. Because it was easy to use the EU as a scapegoat for all the mess the UK government kept doing, many governments around the EU do the same, but the UK always did it. Now with Brexit, we are getting a dose of reality, and the government can't blame the EU for the incompetents of UK governments that keep messing the UK up, that blame is firmly on the UK now. Mind you, it's still remarkable how some Brexiteers are still clinging onto blaming the EU for how bad things have got in the UK, Brexiteers thinking that if we implement a hard Brexit, it will somehow make things better, they are clueless, we have what is close to a hard Brexit and we are seeing the results of that action.
