How do people feel about Brexit three years on? – BBC Newsnight
The Brexit referendum of 2016 divided the UK. For some Brexit was an exhilarating opportunity, for others a self-inflicted wound.
It led to the immediate downfall of former prime minister David Cameron, the tormenting and eventual toppling of his successor Theresa May, and along the way it raised questions about the durability of the United Kingdom.
So three years after the UK left the EU, how are people feeling in Westminster, and in Sunderland? – the place where results first indicated that Brexit was on the way.
Newsnight’s political editor Nick Watt has been assessing the political mood.

Hawk Fire wildfire in Nevada expected to rage for another two days, say officials | BBC News
US fire crews have reported progress in their efforts to tackle a large wildfire menacing the city of Reno, Nevada – saying the blaze is about a quarter contained.
The Hawk Fire, which began on Saturday, had spread over 15,000 acres by Monday, firefighters said.
Evacuation orders remain in place for 23,000 people, though other residents have now been allowed to return to their homes. Tens of thousands of other residents have been told to be ready to leave at any moment.
Officials are concerned that gusts of wind could drive the flames towards more homes. Unfavourable weather conditions are forecast for the next two days, meaning the fire could continue to burn during that timeframe.

Today, we discuss China’s £14.7bn investment into AI and robotics in the hopes of overtaking the US as the world leader in innovation.
China has two million robots already working in factories, and is investing heavily in the hopes that one day they could bridge gaps in an already sluggish economy. What can these robots do? And what does the future look like for workers? Our China correspondent Laura Bicker has been to some of these factories, and is on the line to debrief.
Plus, the government has announced more details about their housing plans, including where 70,000 social and affordable homes will be built in England over the next 10 years. 60% of the new homes would be for social rent, despite Andy Burnham telling The Social Housing Podcast in May he “would actually devote all of it to social housing.”.
Is Andy Burnham delivery what he promised? Adam is joined by Alex and housing correspondent Tarah Welsh.

If UK was such a success to begin with, and it was basically just EU sucking life out of it..
Then.. where has all those money and leverage money gone?
It can be in raised salaries, or in better equipment.
And don't blame it on covid or Ukraine.
We are all in that mess with each other. UK does not have it any harder than others on those points.

I’m not a Brit. Years ago aBrit I met while traveling explained to me why he supported Brexit. He thought it was a no brainer. I remained silent, but thought to myself how can someone be so stupid. The economic ramifications of Brexit were obvious to me. Do not be offended Brits, we have Donald Trump…
@KlingbergWingMkII
January 1, 2024 at 2:40 pm
Russia's social media assaults' is probably just as much to blame for Brexit as it is to blame for the troubles we are having here in the US with Trump. Putin and his minions have planted a lot of false info out there that average folks mistake for actual news.
@nette4307
January 1, 2024 at 2:40 pm
Interesting to see how the UK has declined since Brexit. The debates before the Brits went to the polls showed a profound arrogance: it was as if many Brits still thought of the UK as the old "Empire." It has become obvious that the Empire no longer has access to gold, precious stones and free labour – the things it was built on. The thing is, those in power are so far removed from the people on the street, and this being the UK, they have always had – and will always have a privileged existence regardless of whether the country is part of the EU or not. The Glass Ceiling isn't an individual experience in the UK: it is how that society is structured. And the Brits accept it.

Brits got so used to blaming the EU, that they are in a stupor now while acquiring new targets. Spin the wheel. Will it be immigrants? Russians, extreme political groups? Naon-christians? Or finding new ways to blame the EU, this time for 'forcing' the UK out of the EU.
@servalous
January 1, 2024 at 2:40 pm
All the things that they wanted were possible while being in the EU. The politicians just needed to do their jobs and also the system. Brexit was nothing else then providing the rich more power and more control. All crisis were home made in the UK and I have nothing left for the brexmoaners. You shown your fascist colour and made your bed, so sleep in it.
