There's an awful lot of people looking from the outside of the UK in telling people that brexit is going terribly when honest to god nearly all focus in the UK has been on covid for 2 years with a short blip during when we actually left. Few people really talk about brexit anymore in the way we did in the years prior.
It happened, the world didn't end, economic armageddon didn't occur, mostly people are over it and more concerned by covid as I said.
- jacquesm 5y agoYes, COVID has served as a nice distraction and scapegoat. It couldn't have been timed better from that perspective, but the end result is that the UK now has two major challenges to deal with.
