How are we doing post-Brexit?

Spam, wonderful spam (bloody vikings!)
It is not my fault if the EU is the shadiest institution Europe has ever had.
Shadiest in the last 2000 years

The EU is the first European institution, unless you want to include empires like the Romans and the Third Reich.

So, have I got this right?
We have left the EU, so that we can pursue improved trade deals with the world, after some, costly to the tax-payer, negotiations we have a trade deal with Canada that is exactly the same as we had as a member of the EU????

And the Brexiteers are cheering it from the rafters.

Am I missing something here?

No, I think you got all the salient points there.

That sounds like a "I'll cut my nose off to spite my face" argument.

The truth is..I heard Italians saddened by Brexit.
But they think it is the EU who disappointed Britain...so they think Britain was right. And the EU was wrong...

You mean the EU should have rolled over and given them the deal Britain wanted - brilliant, that's what the Brexiteers said would happen - it was always fantasy land.

I notice that you selectively quoted!!
The truth is...
I believe Europe will be more and more Nationalist-like in the future.
I know how the British have always repelled Nationalism, so Brexit will look like a liberation in the future, trust me.

No, I won't trust a popularist/alt-right supporter.
It may well happen but that doesn't make it better.
If you asked the population they'd vote to bring back capital punishment - luckily we stopped that more than half a century ago.
