      Sadly it's inevitable it seems, all these years of peace means there will be the next generations that takes it all for granted, and starts hating other people again, meaning again there will be war... Maybe not in the same way as the 2 World Wars, but for sure just as devastating...
      Because it will be like slowly turning up the heat on a frog until it's boiling alive without noticing...
      We will just become worse and worse and that will become more and more normal and just a fact of life ... Or we will have an official World War 3... Or a much bigger than the World Wars combined, leaving humanity basically having to start over... Or we will just destroy ourselves with disease or other natural disasters, as always hitting the poor and those in need of help the hardest...
      There is also the possibility of us learning from something that will be the breaking point later on, but then we will inevitably do it again in 100-200 years time again...

Importers, exporters, gutted. Because they didn't have the paperwork processes right, goods are not allowed into the EU.Regular businesses that sold and sourced mostly within the EU , going out of business or have taken the huge expense to uproot and move to the EU. Corporate HQs moving to EU cities. Brits already living in the EU are giving up their citizenship for EU member country's citizenship. And it is just getting started since it was only official on Jan 4.
    All because they wanted to have their supremacy and ideas of their old kingdom back, where they could take, take take and never have to share. I only feel bad for those who voted remain .
