United Kingdom’s beginning of the end?

Following Prince Harry and his wife Megan’s made-for-TV issues, Brexit has finally taken place and might invite a Scottish and Northern-Irish divorce from the Union in a not-so-distant future, which would be disastrous for England.

The U.K. had never shown much enthusiasm for its marriage with Europe and constantly required special treatment, not to mention its refusal to embrace the Euro as a common currency.

With a 43% of UK trade being with the EU, the island-nation has much more to lose than its European neighbors and this is likely to be felt harshly during the upcoming trade negotiations.

All this to say that in spite of a few crocodile tears being shed these days, the continental ex-partners of Great Britain are now probably thinking “good riddance!”
