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?

    The UK political cycle:

    1. Tories elected because they made people think Labour were bad with money
    2. Tories stay in power for a couple of decades
    3. Rich people get richer, public services get shitter, prices for everyone else get higher. They coast along on a tide of right-wing populism for awhile
    4. Eventually people catch on, Tories get voted out
    5. Labour need to spend a fortune getting things back on track. Might get two terms.
    6. Go to 1.
