I know I've said this, though I am not sure I've said it to you, but honestly, I hope the whole world just gives both our countries the finger. I mean if we don't want to be friends with anybody anymore, we shouldn't get the special treatment that you give your friends, you know?
In purest principle, I agree with you, we'd deserve it. The prospect of living on said ostracised country though is not appealing.
It was one of the infuriating things about the lead up to the referendum, Cameron going around Europe pleading for a better deal than the already good deal and special treatment we already got.
This entire thread is giving me life but making me feel so sad and depressed at the same time.
Trumplethinskin, in the grand scheme of knowing nothing about anything, seems to think America can function on their own. Britain does the same with Brexit but the world is a global community now where it wasn't as much back in WWII. I'm so sad, it's not funny.
It really isn't funny. That's why I've been watching the clips of Colbert, Seth Meyers and Trevor Noah that get put on Youtube from their nightly shows. Also, Samantha Bee and John Oliver (when his new season starts) are my go-to for political satire. Their irreverent outlook helps me dull the weird pain the world is causing me right now.
