The U. K. Situation

[SlightlyCrazy]

Why they left and what it means

Well let's start with the economics
First of all the uk uses the pound while everyone else uses the euro
This is because the uk has a very strong economy while other eu members like Greece do not
Thus by using a separate currency the uk doesn't have to deal with the inflation and devaluing
Leaving combats This problem more
The eu she's a lot of SEVERLEY indebted states like Greece and Spain

There are other issues
In the eu there is a very large land area called the schnegan area
This is a area of free trade and open borders
By leaving the eu they leave the schegan area
This allows them more control over their borders
Which means tighter security and also the chance to deny more immagrabts
Also the uk being so far from the rest of the eu doesn't feel as invested and doesn't profit from the open borders as much
How ever there are big downsides to them leaving
For the uk it means they have lost a tarrif free market for their goods

Additionally when the eu recites economically which they will
They will have much more leverage and be able to out trade the uk

The eu is in trouble because it lost its strongest economy next to Germany
This the euro will depreciate
Also German chancellor Angela merkel wants to destroy the schnegan area if the U.K. Leaves
Also Finland declare D that without the uk there could be no eu

I'm no expert by the way

Couldn't the UK just trade with the other members that have left the EU in a tariff free market, or even other countries that have never been a part of the EU, while they charge a tariff on the members of the EU?

I don't really see any downside for the UK leaving. Sure they lose a little control over their neighbors, but their neighbors lose a lot more control over the UK. It sounds like the UK isn't being given a reason to want to be a part of the EU at this point.

There were advantages and disadvantages of both sides and because we are leaving it's going to have a huge effect on the future of Europe and the interest rates across the world, a few hours ago Asia reported a negative change because we voted out.

@Jeeevan poor Eastern Europe will get hit hard
So will Greece, Spain, Portugal and Italy
Germany will Have an interesting future too

[Jeeevan]

I know but we and the rest of Europe have been bailing those countries out of debt countless times and I've heard it's happened for a third time soon. I think Germany will be fine but i can imagine they are panicking quite a bit.

[Jeeevan]

happening*

We were never part of the Schengen Zone. We have always required passports to enter, we're just incredibly shit at controlling them. I mean, we don't even count how many immigrants we have, you'd have thought that was Step No 1 in border control: know who's in your fucking country...

the free trade or lack of will certainly hurt GB.

While they will have greater control over their borders (for security) they will lose out the shared resources of all EU countries that seamlessly pass among each other all intelligence regarding various terrorist and other threats

i truly just think that this was a poorly executed decision based on fears of terrorism. and rather than addressing that issue specifically the snap decision was made to leave the union. there was also this fear taht somehow inclusion in the EU eroded nationalism (the whole one world order) but i'm sure any traveler could attest (as i experienced) that every country is still wholly its own unique and special as it was before the existence of the EU

oh well c'est la vie

[Jeeevan]

You got some of the reasons why we are leaving but another one is freedom, the EU has taken more and more control slowly away from us and we don't want them to make decisions for us, we want a democratic system where the people vote. I'm happy we left but also concerned about what the future holds for us, it can either go badly or good but i have hope.

[SlightlyCrazy]

I can't argue with that
Thank you
My personal option is that it's better to loose that little bit of freedom for slot of strength
As long as you guys stay in NATO

[Jeeevan]

It's not like we dislike each other for leaving, Germany and Poland have both said it wouldn't change anything between us

[Jeeevan]

We will still be an alliance haha, Europe is going to be affected badly by us leaving though

[SlightlyCrazy]

I know there's no hard feelings
