>to make the connection to Brexit as a cause is quite the stretch
I did say either cause/consequence to express exactly that it's clearly not the lack of UK erasmuses alone that caused the Brexit.
I believe though the lack of UK erasmus for the past decades is something that might be correlated with what caused the Brexit.
> Overall, 85 per cent of students who voted in the referendum chose Remain, meaning almost one million out of the UK’s 1.4 million full-time undergraduates voted to stay in the union.
I'm happy you shared that article with us and I'm happy to know once again many UK students wished to not leave the EU.
>Maybe it's because Erasmus will largely favour white people and put them into largely similar majority white cultures.
I think we can agree that people come in all colors and shapes, not just white and black. I can guarantee you there is already many permutations of colors and shapes of people in the Erasmus program. I wish more countries from Asia and Africa to join in more exchange programs in order to avoid for people of the similar color and shapes to cluster with each other.
I wish the UK would have stayed and help.
I don't have a problem with the UK having their own exchange programs. I have a problem with the UK leaving the Erasmus.
I wish they would have stayed in the Eramsus program.
The fact that the Alan Turing program is less tolerant to me is because is borned out of leaving the Erasmus program.
