    The UK needs to realise that brexit really was a bad idea and they only can stand up to the US as part of the EU.

    The UK is a big economy and is still being kicked around. My country would be absolutely curb-stomped if outside the EU.

      The orchestrators of Brexit did it for this very reason

      They want to make quick cash making bad deals with America for personal gain at the cost of the nation

      Capitalism in a nutshell really. Loyalty to profit and power with no concern for reality.
