They have had TWO votes to see if they should leave the EU and in the second vote, even more people voted for Brexit than the first time around.

If I were in the EU, I'd tell them to fuck off.

Together we're all stronger, so as a EU citizen I'd welcome them back. However, say goodbye to the GBP, it's Euro for all of you, and no more special rules, it'll be a regular old member state.

well as the Pound collapsed after Brexit it shouldn't make much difference.

[-] Hazdaz@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

But would they ever agree to getting rid of the Pound and just "just" another member state??? I think not. They think they're too good for that.

[-] danielbln@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Well yeah, but that shouldn't concern us. Eat the pride or die trying.

[-] Hazdaz@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Totally agree. Those should be the stipulations of rejoining the EU. No special treatment.
