Imagine how hard things would have been, if England didnt get a "soft break" brexit,
with EU basically bending over backwards, to give them a easy out.

Hard crash brexit + Coronavirus, woulda hurt.

Alot of brits are probably happy, that Boris happend to go for the soft approach right about now.

I ask again, what difference does it make?  What mechanism is there in the EU to stop this disease?  Because it doesn't seem to be helping any of the other countries.

Hard crash brexit would cause distruption to supply chains, and the UK would be lacking alot of things (foods/medicins).
That ontop of Coronavirus also haveing a impact.

Not to mention the economical hit, the UK would take on a hard brexit.... which again, would happend at the same time of this virus outbreak? that will also likely have a economical hit to a countries economy.

It would just make everything worse they have to go through.

I was thinking more so about the economy side of things.
UK was smart to not go for a hard brexit.

They would have been royally screwed over, if they picked the other option.
