Admittedly, I don’t know much about Brexit, but from what I have been exposed to, it seems like a decisively economical and political impairment that made travel and business with the rest of Europe more difficult and costly. Since it is so highly criticized as a terrible move, why doesn’t the UK just rejoin the EU?
There are a lot of reasons, but I think it boils down to the people in charge do not want the embarrassement of crawling back to the EU.
It would be total ego destruction and that is simply untennable. This is what happens when the right gets enough power to make a change and then has to experience consequences.
Something something leopards and faces.
Not only that but the EU doesn’t want to make it seem like people can come and go as they please. So they will make serious demands for rejoining.
Exactly. UK will be adopting the Euro next time.
I forget what other significant concessions there were.
Schengen membership and no rebate are the 2 big ones aside from the euro iirc
If the EU are feeling particularly salty they might add the metric system but that’s not a current condition of membership afaik

Possibly switch to driving on the right, that’d be good
That won’t happen because it would be an unreasonable requirement and for no real point.
It would require a ridiculous amount of road maintenance and sign changes and it would be basically burning money. It would be like asking the French to correctly signpost things, utterly unreasonable.
What do mean ?
Doesn’t “touts directions” tell you everything you need to know? /s
Shhh, it’d be fun
Yeah exactly, not to mention that the EU has called the UK “a trouble maker” in regards to the UK rejoining.
They weren’t wrong, were they?
I got the impression the modern British are an extreme manifestation of “truth hurts”.
This is the big one, admitting it was a mistake.
