Except in all likelihood, the results of years of negotiations will end with us having to accept the free movement of people anyway, even though that was the primary reason a lot of people voted to leave. The remaining 27 EU leaders are going to want to shit all over the UK in negotiations to make the concept of any of them leaving to be a clear case of economic and social suicide. Sure Germany (and maybe France) will want to keep trade going, but the UK doesn't export anything you can't get elsewhere and we're not going to have as much buying power if the pounds stays low anyway.

I'm ashamed that the reason people voted to leave was because they feel left behind and blame the EU but don't realise that the reason they're so poor is because of domestic politics, not EU policy. When the EU money stops coming in and the poor get even poorer is going to be very interesting. Already we have regions that voted for Brexit asking that the UK Government to guarantee they'll keep receiving millions of pounds in EU funding. We have Brexit politicians admitting they lied during the campaign on the very morning of the result; the millions of pounds promised for the NHS was a complete lie; the promise to reduce immigration was another lie.

The areas that voted for heavily to leave are the same areas that have been ignored by British politicians but received the most in EU funding. This was a referendum of misleading lies and ignorance.

you all live in lalala lands. you can't just magically throw together a million different ideologies, religions, social preferences- into a mixing bowl and expect it to magically work perfectly and for everyone to coexist.

the whole point of borders and countries should be to enable people of similar beliefs and preferences to be able to live together and in their own territory with harmony.

you're not goint to throw a group of radical muslims (just saying) who believe women should shield their faces constantly into a town of 25 year hipster girls who believe in women empowerment and it magically work out

human beings are flawed to begin with. the best realistic goal I think you can have is that people spread out across the board somewhat fairly and evenly, based on belief and culture and that we live among our own communities peacefully.

anyone aiming for one world economy or a one world country that runs seamlessly is just being delusional. And I can't stress enough that the fewer seperated economies and nations in the world the more likely that the rich and corporations will gain even more power. you NEED competition and variety to allow different classes to emerge and change in a society.

as soon as you have one world economy or one giant country it becomes a bloated mess in which the top few % in power have nothing in their way to stop them from gaining more and more power. in an odd way I would argue that borders, regulations, tariffs- that they actually help stop the rich-poor gap from exponentially growing too quickly.

there's a reason that the media/rich have reacted so angrily about the UK breaking up from the EU- its a little block in their goals for further globalization and a one world economy.

and the reality is in the end if your suggestions are that the world should be unified as one- what does that really mean? our communities and countries often represent us in terms of culture, religion, morals- to some degree. I know I personally don't want my culture to suddenly mix with that of North Korea or China, I don't know about you. and I speak more on the matter of ethics and history than anything else. Someone in China would probably feel the same way, people grow up and either like where they are and their home or possibly move somewhere else. Which is perfectly fine. the concept that everyone should sort of join up and unify as a human race is sort of absurd because people are entirely different from one another.

everyone wants world peace but that doesn't magically mean that immigration should be forced across the board and it certainly doesn't mean that better off country's who have spent centuries getting where they are now should give that all up to float the bill for hordes of immigrants or big unified continental alliances

I'm rambling a bit but it is concerning how some seem to lack a grasp on the fact that humans do have very differing views on politics/morals/culture and that having some level of borderse and seperation can sometimes be a very positive thing.

its the exact reason you have walls around your house and don't openly share your yard with your next door neighbor
