Far ranging impacts for a lot of people

Lots of good deals ahead, especially when USA predators slice up your NHS.

Otherwise, they’ll be forced to deal with his trade terms, which will be pushing chlorinated chicken and pork loaded with antibiotics and who knows what growth hormones.

I too wish them well and hope they survive the transition, i mean, what else can u say?

Scotland will vote for independence.

Northern Ireland won't be too far behind...granted in years, but they will choose to reunite with Ireland, once they are given some fairly good concessions. It will be Wales and England.

Curious, if this spurs other loose held like Canada to say, "yeah...fuck you, you're on your own".

Makes me wonder, if the mad drama with Harry and Megan is actually a premonition, decreased role of the Royal Family due to the inevitability of decreased role of the UK...or what's left of it. Them moving to Canada may be to hold the very loose ties to the UK.

"May you live in interesting times".
