That was a good read. Thank you.
My goodness its a lot. I imagine giving citizenship to those who have been in the country "x" amount of years would be important and wise.
Oh Northern Ireland. Hopefully the Troubles war wouldn't return.
I have to ask again, why did the past Brexit deal fail?

Because their politicans have sold the public on lies, that everything would "Just work out" and it would be easy to be as well off, on their own. The truth is, they havnt been able to get anywhere near what they promised the people.
So now they are all afraid to support it, its better than nothing, but its not near enough for them to support it. The problem is, the EU has already said, this is as good as it gets.
The UK cant just leave, and get as good or better deals, than they had as members in the EU. If it worked out like that, it would encurage other countries to try leaving as well.
The UK is now finding that, getting things as well, as they had it as members of the EU, will be hard. And are unable to actknowledge the facts of the situtation, so in-fighting as broken out, theres power struggles for controll, and everyone has their own oppinions on how to "fix" things, and is unwilling to follow the other parties suggestions.
Basically the politicans are thinking more about their voteing results next election, than the good of the country.
The short of it? Its gonna hurt their economy & jobs, theres no two ways about it.

Sounds like it will hurt severly because of a lack of planning. From a social standpoint I understand why people wanted out, but economically it sounds like once you are in you should stay in.
So, the voting results next election aren't a problem only the US deals with. Glad we aren't alone.
Sorry for all of my ignorance. I have known some of the most basic of basics in regards to Brexit. However, the US is dealing with so much division I have been unable to really pay attention to another country's issues.
I feel a lot more educated about the whole issue now. Seems like the politicans need to do what they were elected to do and support the country moving forward.
