And were Denmark to leave EU and rejoin Denmark would no longer have that sweet deal. And the British population - those still alive at least - knew that. But so many old people had just enough nationalism left in them that as a fuck-you before they left this plane of existence, they just had to screw everyone over.
I really feel bad for especially Scotland though, because I think a big enough % of them voted no to independence just 2 years prior to the Brexit referendum because it meant staying in the EU, that had they known of the result beforehand they’d have definitely voted for freedom from those clowns in the south.
You don’t like your current arrangements with the EU so you’re inclined to leave, and then reminded that if you ever join again we’re going to make the arrangements even worse and will drive even more tension. It will definitely make the union stronger.
The tone coming out of the EU and UK is more more collaborative and sounds more adult than the Junker years.
I just don’t see what we have to gain from being hardliners on this. And as you said, many of the people voting leave have died.
In practical terms, if your currency is pegged to the Euro there’s no difference to having the Euro. And many countries have partially-official Schengen deals or at least act like they do, control the borders they want to, etc.
