10 years after the Brexit vote

124

On June 23 in 2016 there was a big vote. Most people wanted to leave the EU. We call this Brexit. Today this event is 10 years old. Many people think the result is bad.

The business world has big problems. Trade with other countries is hard now. There are new borders. There is much bureaucracy. This means many rules and lots of papers. Good trade deals do not exist. Prices for things are higher now.

Politicians promised less migration. But more people come from other countries. Small boats cross the channel. This leads to fights in politics.

There is much chaos in Great Britain. The leaders change very often. The people are divided. Many young people want back into the EU. Most people want this now.
