The British economy is smaller than it would have been if the United Kingdom had remained in the EU, many businesses have suffered, and Brexit has been the starting point of a period of political instability, observe The New York Times and The Guardian, a decade after the historic vote.
Brexit has impacted the British economy, and the costs have steadily accumulated over the last decade, far outweighing any benefits, economists assert, ten years after the vote that initiated the UK’s divorce from the EU.
At the same time, Brexit has triggered a wave of political instability: the country will soon have its seventh prime minister in the last decade, after Keir Starmer announced his resignation on Monday.
The complicated decade that followed the vote also gave way to an increasingly well-defined regret.
In a recent survey, nearly half of the Britons stated that Brexit is going worse than they expected.
Another poll showed that just over half of the respondents would support a return to the European Union – although few realistically consider such a scenario.
