This day has been a long time in the making, but the UK has now officially left the European Union. So we review the night’s events, Johnson and Farage’s speeches and the stunts pulled by Led by Donkeys. We also discuss what we learned from these moments and what’s set to happen next.

    I find it incredibly distasteful to "celebrate" leaving the EU like that. For many, being an EU citizen was cherished. It's disgusting to flaunt ripping that away from them.

    If the EU wanted to be a dick with the UK, you want out? Fine, fro. Thai moment on, if you wanna buy any products from the countries of the EU you are gonna have to pay tariffs at 15% for each product, you wanna go to Ireland? Fine you are gonna have to step up to immigration like any other country outside the UK. Yiu try anytjik g funny we will consider you a thread to the EU territoryhence the notan vs the UK.
    I other words if you want to leave, we wo t stop you but you will be treated as a secibd class citizen. This is what you wanted, this is what you get.

    I would probably watch a lot more of your videos (and subscribe) if you didn't have as much filler content just to hit that 10 minute mark. I like your content and style but the channel doesn't really live up to it's name. Perhaps make a choice per video to make them either long form (20-30 minutes) or more concise lasting just a few minutes? I believe both could have a place on this channel.

    finally omg that took you brits long enough, its so nice not to have you in our parliament behaving like the dumbest dogs ever again…when i only think about it, all political committees from eu parliament with british people in it where boycottet for years, …cultural comittee – what is that?!
    securitiy committee – excuse me sir?
    military commitee – NO?

    FINALLY you're out!
    THANK GOD FOR MAKING YOUR COUNTRY SO NARCISTIC AND IGNORANT THAT YOU LEFT US
    THANK YOU SOOO MUCH AND PLEASE NEVER COME BACK

    January 6, 2024 at 12:27 pm

    What I find extraordinary, is the sheer number of people cherishing the cause of the effects they deplore. EU has been impoverishing ( euro even more so ) its major countries ( Germany included ! ), and will continue to do so as the number of beneficiary countries increase (countries with far lower wages). Plus, the necessary unanimity is required to change anything in the functioning of EU, even changing that in favor of a majority system. And with countries which interests are the opposite of others, it will never change, never. It will only die one way or another.

    No more shit EU policy. No more globalist policy. UK are independent now and free.

    January 6, 2024 at 12:27 pm

    Now UK can trade freely… YEAH!!!!

    Then you forget that WTO trade tariff is based on what the country individually prefer and you need to obey them in order to reach an agreement since you're no longer can use EU tariff anymore… LOL. I think UK make a big mistake prefering Brexit seriously.

  34. @richardcutts196

    January 6, 2024 at 12:27 pm

    Actually, the UK is still in. They will still be in until the end of the transition period. The UK just isn't a member and doesn't have any say about what the EU does.

    That speech from Boris Johnson was 100x now elegant than any Trump speech

  38. @ramons.g5135

    January 6, 2024 at 12:27 pm

    I’m sorry for my british friends, but I really hope UK doesn’t get his way in the trade talks. The more UK suffers the more people will realise that globalisation, free trade and unity are essential for investment, jobs and prosperity

    So basically we were only half in the eu. Now we want only the benifit and no burden or rules. No European rules about avoiding tax. Fools

Could Another Brexit Debate End Farage?

Nigel Farage said Andy Burnham’s comments about potentially rejoining the EU had given him “the biggest boost in [his] career”. We look at why — even if it seems counter-intuitive — another Brexit debate could actually hurt Farage.

Remainers: Why Hasn’t the Economy Collapsed Yet? – Brexit Explained

Published

on



TeeSpring Store: https://teespring.com/stores/tldr-winter

Before the Brexit referendum, a whole bunch of MPs explained to Britain how the economy would collapse post-Brexit. While Brexit hasn’t yet happened, some did say that the destruction would take place immediately after the vote; which didn’t exactly happen as expected. So in this video, we explain what’s happened and why the economy hasn’t done too badly in the end.
