    I would love to welcome Scotland and Northern Ireland back into the EU.

    LOL. We lose our freedom of movement and trade deals that even fascist dictatorships get to have now.

      Same dictatorships that helped con England into giving up one of its largest advantages.

      The French must be jealous of the Germans for having a word for feeling joy at the misfortune of others…

      At some point this mess will have to be fixed. Well, I mean technically it doesn’t, but assuming there are adults around it just seems like some of them should clean up the dogshit on the floor.

      Or are we waiting for it to smell more so we can rub the morons’ noses into it more? That makes sense too.

        I honestly don’t think the morons who voted for Brexit care that it’s their fault we’re in this mess unfortunately, there is absolutely no way they’re self-aware enough to take any blame

        Fwiw, since I got a report on this which I just cleared: For the time being, I will not remove memes/meme images in the comments, unless the comment section is getting repetitive. (However, I am still not huge on image memes in the comments here.)

            Please don’t be mad. And I do appreciate your contributions! :) Trying to find a balance here.

              Not mad at all. I’m just saying that I’ll avoid posting images/memes going forward. I’ll still keep posting the links I find interesting and somewhat relevant to the Europe community.

              I appreciate the work you and the mod team is doing.

      I remember being in my first college, hearing about the referendum, having 0 experience with politics at the time, and immediately asking how they’re going to maintain trade relationships. Turns out they just fucking didn’t. 😂

      Me, a clueless American, immediately realized it was a terrible idea. And half of England voted for it anyway.

      The titanic is unsinkable, now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to take a quick walk around the first class promenade deck, and perform a regular inspection of the life boats.
